Talk to a libertarian long enough and you will come to find that Libertopia sounds suspiciously like debt serfdom.

Grimdude posted:It's a shame that Bernie seems like a genuinely decent person with a solid voting record, but that he'll never get the support he deserves because too many people like Garrison are loving hopeless. I mean, if Garrison were a tankie he would have drawn the same cartoon, so there's still hope!

I like how the leash is supposed to be choking him, as indicated by the lines near the collar, but it's also so loose that there's visible air between it and his neck. Because the artist is poo poo and has poo poo opinions.

Oh Garrison is also doing that "M. Markle" crap too? She's a married woman who changed her name. Just notice how when people write complete poo poo about the Duchess of Sussex they do not use her actual titles or anything that indicates anything other than her maiden name to disrespect her. Yeah and that "soy boy" Harry could rip Garrison's head off and piss down the neck

Yeah, it does indeed seem that because the Senate is not going to perform their duties under the Constitution, the articles of impeachment might as well have gone into the trash.
