A cool guide to the difference between left wing and right wing comics
Bet he just wants to get ratioed here and then go bitch in r/conservative for a pat on the back
These two comics aren’t every single political comic lmao. Left wing comics can have thought and nuance just as much as right wing comics can be utterly meaningless and demeaning.
yeah i thought "leftist meme" was a universal way to say someone typed too much
Yeah and I can literally point to any Ben garrison comic where leftists are painted as ugly and gross abominations while right wingers are painted as buff or masculine. Generalizing something as ginormous as “political comics” into 2 pictures is hilarious.
What a cool strawman!
If it only had a brain
Cool cherry picking
Isn't that stonetoss guy a known nazi?
Yeah. So no thanks to OP and hey, at least my memes aren’t drawn by a racist piece of shit so I’ll stay left wing lol
No he isn’t. He’s just edgy
We can all view your post history OP.
We all know.
Jesus christ. I didn't even need to look at his posts. The banner image was enough for me
Keep going. It gets worse.
Love how over half of this posts are him checking to see if he’s been shadow banned.
Monarchy is kinda based ngl
You weren't kidding. It's like this guy is a caricature of the average /pol/ poster
You have to admit it’s pretty based though
No. This is propagandist garbage with no basis in fact.
Don Jr. or Hunter Biden being rightful successors to the throne of America. Sounds kinda fucking stupid to me
Sounds based to me
It would to a POS lunatic
Op is super paranoid the lizard overlords are censoring him for "right wing talking points"
Yes, nothing OP said can be critiqued as having any validity because you don’t like his example of using a nazi to show a right wing meme. We need OP to use a REAL CONSERVATIVE that uses a token minority so he can’t be called racist, that would be much more acceptable.
/s
You’re welcome to discuss the logic of OP’s argument at any time.
I think it’s important to make it plainly know that OP is, at best, a Nazi Sympathizer because Nazi’s and their company are notorious for lying, misrepresenting information, and arguing in bad faith.
But, you are TECHNICALLY correct that associating the validity of an argument with the moral character of the speaker making it is a logical fallacy. A broken clock can be right twice a day.
Please. Enlighten me as to why OP’s argument is logically sound.
Who cares if someone’s a Nazi in 2023. World war 2 was almost a hundred years ago at this point, get over it already
That should be obvious to anyone reading the comments in this thread.
If you're using nazi rhetoric and pushing nazi ideology for the sake of being edgy, then you're a nazi
no he’s just straight up a nazi lmao
Proof?
so glad you asked! here’s a number of examples. https://www.reddit.com/r/antifastonetoss/comments/fcck5a/the_definitive_guide_to_why_stonetoss_is_a_nazi/
“Antifastonetoss” is totally not a biased source lmao
certainly not, but surely you can see all of the numbered examples outlined in the post that provide primary sources as to why people would say stonetoss is a nazi. hope that helps!
Antifa morons call anyone right of Lenin a nazi though so that alone discredits it
ah so critical thinking is just hard for you, got it!
Gentle reminder that Antifa stands for Antifascist. If you're not Antifa, you're not against fascists, and that makes you a facist
This is like furries saying that you’re one of them if you like bugs bunny or some shit like that.
“I’m not going to read what you said but I know you’re wrong because anyone who disagrees with me is always wrong. A conservative told me so, so it must be true.”
I mean he has a bunch of comics mocking and denying the holocaust. There’s one where the whole point is just to put a book about the holocaust in the fiction section. Idk how you can make up some backwards explanation for how it satirizes the left with that one. He has numerous comics portraying nazis as good looking or irresistible as well. He also interviewed with a right wing Neo nazi publication, and associated himself with a bunch of Neo nazis.
He has numerous HH and 88s strew across his work and numerous comics either justifying white nationalism or trying to compare white nationalism and nazism to things like gay pride as if they are and equivalent comparison.
Fuckin Nazi.
A cool Right-wing guide to the difference between left wing and right wing politics
Nah
Absolute trash post.
... Is this a joke?
Title should be “A cool guide to the difference between these two particular left and right wing comics.”
Must've been very hard, finding the one RockChuck comic that doesn't completely dehumanize its strawman. Points for effort.
The right cannot meme
(Apologies in advance for the wall of text)
Hard disagree. The Left’s meme game is so fucking weak comparatively. What do we got, “Dark Brandon”? I only ever see that shit in /r/worldnews by people trying to force it.
As stupid as the Right’s memes are (Let’s go Brandon for example, with how it came to be and all), they’re popular with their base. The entire definition of a meme (paraphrasing Webster here) is an idea or concept that spreads around. Hell, I’d even say that “MAGA” itself is a meme going by that definition.
Again, what does the Left have that even compares? “Drumpf”??
On paper, the Biden administration is fairly accomplished. The economy is fairing better than anticipated, consistent support for Ukraine, lowering prescription costs and seizing drug patents from greedy ass big-pharma to be manufactured and sold by the state at a reasonable cost, these are all W’s but what does that matter when the right has Old/Creepy/Sleepy Joe.
They’re trying to get shit done but the results don’t matter when the other side is so heavily influencing the court of public opinion.
Sorry to make something out of a nothing comment, but I’ve sat on this opinion for a long while and just needed to get it in text so I can stop fucking ruminating over it.
You’re telling on yourself. You think we’re out here posting dark Brandon memes?
Yet my point stands. The Right has memes for days, Left ain’t got shit.
And how tf is that “telling on myself”? You think I’m incapable of making a simple observation? I never accused you of it but as I said, you can go to any Biden related post on worldnews (or any political sub for that matter) and see some nerds trying to force it into the zeitgeist.
You wanna reply in a constructive manner? Gimme some memes the Left has. Things of the same caliber that the Right has. ‘Cause I’m drawing a blank.
The Left can’t meme and it’s why Trump won the 2016 election in the first place.
The Left can’t meme and it’s why Trump won the 2016 election in the first place.
sigh This is one of those “I haven’t touched grass in months” kind of takes
Democrats aren't the left
GOOGLE MURRAY BOOKCHIN
Dark Brandon and drumpf as memes are made and used by Democrats. That's all still evidence that the right can't meme.
OP is a subhuman freak lmaooooo
I am Übermensch 😎
So a loser Nazi. Got it. Dismissed
Not cool, nor a guide. I call shenanigans
You fucknob. The artist on the left is a NAZI. His whole schtick is dehumanizing others. This post is straight-up misinformation, and you are here advocating for a Nazi. What does that make you?
Except he isn’t but okay
Based on the definition they give in this argument for what constitutes a Nazi most vocal leftist and almost all redditors fall into that category
Ok
The definition they give for what a Nazi is is someone who spreads Nazi rhetoric, associates with known Neo-Nazis, gives interviews for Neo-Nazi publications, and regularly espouses white supremacy and anti-semitism. If you think that describes “most vocal leftist[s] and almost all redditors”, you’re delusional.
“Actually Merriam-Webster also includes that a Nazi is someone who is “- harshly domineering, dictatorial, or intolerant person””
*Edited “that’s” to “that a”
Why don't we show that whole section and not just the snippet you lifted out of context?
Inb4 the neckbeards start saying "But ACKCHYUALLY well google says that Nazis can only be a member of the National Socialist German Workers' Party." Because I could also do that and say that actually Merriam-Webster also includes that a Nazi is someone who is "a harshly domineering, dictatorial, or intolerant person", while this definition helpful in making my point, given that dictionaries are descriptive not prescriptive, they merely tell us how words are used not how they should be used.
And that's true given that the term "Nazi" is often used hyperbolically to draw attention to particular issues that people think aren't stigmatized enough. In this way it is often abused, for example, it is frequently claimed that the Nazis were National Socialists therefore any sort of government action is socialism so people advocating for things like universal health care are the real Nazis. Or that because Hilter was a vegan therefore all vegans are Nazis. Clearly these are garbage talking points.
You are citing a section where he literally states that that definition is unhelpful in discussing whether or not Stonetoss is a Nazi. He's saying that that definition is a colloquial use of the term that people defending Stonetoss pivot to, exactly like you are doing here, because it distracts from what he is actually saying: that Stonetoss literally espouses Nazi rhetoric in his comics, that associates with proud neo-Nazi's, that he's given interviews for neo-Nazi publications, and that he personally espouses a lot of white supremacy and antisemitism.
I understand where you are coming from and I admit that I misinterpreted a sentence in that paragraph however he does not invalidate that definition (as how could one invalidate the definition of a word) he simply states that while it would be helpful to his case it has also been abused but then goes on to reference very extreme and unrelatable examples. All I said in my original statement was that this definition could be used to just as easily be used to describe a group that would consider themselves ideologically opposite. Nor did I ever claim that Stonetoss isn’t a Nazi.
You didn’t misinterpret a sentence in that paragraph; you misinterpreted the entire paragraph. He didn’t say that because that definition would be helpful to his case. He said it because that definition isn’t relevant and has been used to derail discussions like that one, so he brought it up early to dismiss it and clarify what he was saying. What you said was that his definition of Nazi, the one being used to label Stonetoss a Nazi, would apply to “most vocal leftists and almost all redditors”. That makes it sound like you are either giving Stonetoss a pass, because he’s just behaving like vocal leftists and all redditor’s (and to be clear, he isn’t) or you’re saying that leftists are equally as bad as a literal Nazi (and to be clear, they aren’t).
“Antifa” in link title
Already know it’s biased and not worth my time
You’re defending a Holocaust denying bigot. I don’t care about your time. I put that for other people who may want the citations to his history.
Comics aren’t always supposed to be taken seriously and don’t always reflect the artist’s views
So this Holocaust denying comic he drew doesn’t reflect his views
You obviously don’t understand the point of that comic lol
It’s making fun of leftists who support banning/censoring people who have ideas they don’t like
Ok
The idea that you’re saying leftists don’t like and that they’re wrong for censoring is the idea that the Nazis didn’t execute the Jews in their death camps. You’re telling on yourself with every comment
Who cares tbh
Anybody who is against the spreading of Nazi propaganda. So at least the roughly 93,000 people in the anti stonetoss sub
Garbage like this shouldn’t make the sub. This is neither cool, nor a guide.
Notice that this is flattering to right-wingers and critical of left-wingers, yet it does not mock an idea, but just makes fun of people it doesn't like.
Get the fuck out of here with this trash lmao, Stonetoss is a literal nazi. Your argument just literally lost all value because of him.
Op, you're an idiot.
Bait use to be believable.
Clearly worked 😁
Isn't this more of a Meh guide to a false dichotomy?
This fucking sucks.
lol, this guy acting like Stonetoss has never made comics that make fun of people he doesn’t like
Just another shit post.
This says much more about the creator of this guide than anything portrayed in the comics in the guide. So much of the divisiveness in the country is from picking the worst example of the group you hate and thinking everyone in that group thinks that way. This guide only also picks the most favorable of the view the creator wants to praise.
What is the purpose of this guide, but only to widen the divide?
A Cool guide on why the left wing comic hurt my feelings uWu
🥰
Wasn't aware this was r/biasedmemes
By "cool guide" you mean "cherry picked garbage", then...sure?
Cool, now do the endless repeats of "I identify as (insert object here)". Those are always "classics". 🙄
Thanks for sorting in most controversial of all time
How can these two comics possibly represent all political cartoons? Answer: it cant… it only compares these two.
Both of these suck
Not cool not a guide
Skill issue
Obligatory stonetoss is a nazi
"there is no idea being mocked" = "I don't understand the point"
Haha “cool guide”, throw some more stone toss up there little buddy.
Tossing stones is my passion
How to know that whoever made this piss poor graphic is a victim of the American education system: The right wing example is on the left side and the left wing example is on the right side.
Probably one of the worst coolguides I have read.
You could just as easily make another meme using your post as a "typical right wing strawman" highlighting how everybody sees it for the trash it is while you try to pass it off as a cool guide.
WTF is this?
least biased guide...
This is literally the worst post I've seen in this sub. It's neither cool, nor a guided nor interesting not worth it. Be better
These are two (of many) ways to present an argument (present an example supporting your opinion, insult the other guy) and anyone can use any of them.
These two are both poor ways of arguing. One can cherry pick examples and avoid expooring complexity in the examples. Insulting the other guy has no content relevant to the topic.
Take away the left/right distinction or add the other for each if you want a balanced guide and not a biased guide. [couldnt resist the alliteration.]
What's fun about this is that it's clearly designed to make the right wing comic look reasonable and left wing comic crazy but the subject of the right wing comic is armed resistance against the government
Boooo
Imagine posting this here. Get a job 🤡 welfare is socialism don't forget it buddy
"There's no idea being mocked"
So they definitely didn't draw "militia" or the guns or tactical gear to poke fun at people who are single issue voters and lean on the 2nd amendment to justify political preference? Yeah nope, definitely didn't do that
Let's pick one cartoon and base the world off of it and call it a "cool guide". This sub has gone to absolute shit.
This post was a cool guide on right wing posters failing to be clever yet again.
Piss car will never be a real car 😔
😔
Which one's which..??
I rarely read political comics, and this guide is an example of why.
So waves beat govt tanks and planes
The left can't meme
the difference is quite simple: left wing woke people just aren't funny
it's hard to be funny when you're a virtue-signaling smug pussy
High key hilarious coming from the dude so tore up about a beer ad they posted about it repeatedly.
/s ?
Oh wait, you're serious? Let me laugh harder.
it's hard to be funny when you're a virtue-signaling smug pussy
Ironically, that’s exactly why right-wing comedy isn’t funny
I stopped reading after you grabbed the low hanging "woke" fruit. We get it, empathy is weakness.
Facts
Based.
This thread is gold.
So many from both sides absolutely buttmad.
Real

This but the opposite
Which one of you liberal socialist snow flakes made this post
Not me, I was melting all over your mama.
Lol, somebody gets it
So true
Facts

That's not a guide, that's an isolated example biased heavily towards the Right Wing POV.
In other words, OP is talking out his asshole.
