Consummate V’s! I said consummate!
Here’s a parody by me, made when I was much more naive and Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid just came out.
we need a badger version
My personal favorite:
Don’t forget
These boots were made for treading,
And that’s just what they’ll do.
One of these days these boots are gonna tread all over you.
No, that’s not the best Gadsden flag parody. Far from it. Here’s some better ones:
As a European I see these for the first time, where do they come from? Usually I see eagles, donkeys and elephants with US stuff
It’s (based on) the Gadsden flag https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadsden_flag
Here’s some of my set
Thanks, those are great too! 😁
“No flying for me” is one I haven’t seen before but it’s definitely a classic
Drop the G
I audibly laughed.
Mongoose! Even better!
There is no masquerading. Libertarians are just cons/repubs without the religion who smoke weed
Libertarians are just republicans with a better working knowledge of local age of consent laws.
So Diet Republicans.
Politics have been irreparably poisoned by that political compass bullshit.
The opposite of conservative is progressive, not liberal.
Liberals want to “liberate” the market from regulation, which frankly, snuggles nicely with fascists who want slaves back.
The problem is Americans have redefined “liberal” to mean “not liberal”
Is that why the fascists threw the liberals into prisons or murdered them?
Did that liberals actually call themselves “liberals”? What historic event to you refer to? Or is this just another trick of fascists in disguise to just switch the definition over to “liberal” for unwanted opinion? How is progressive not the opposite of conservative?
Libertarians today
What’s clear is that the Right-wing’s whole thing doesn’t exactly attract (good) artists. They tend to borrow and steal most of their iconography rather than make something new1. Strangely, the whole movement also seems to be both unable to execute parody nor see the humor in self-parody, which I assert is a faculty needed to pull off good political art.
So that puts some serious creative power in league with everyone else. Should be interesting.
1 - MAGA is a great example of this. The slogan itself is lifted from Reagan’s 1980 campaign, so it’s nothing new. The current slogan marketing “design” is nothing more than a white serif font on a red field, which in highly-technical graphic design terms is called: “lazy as fuck.”

…Which in turn lifted it from the National Front’s “Make Britain Great Again,” which is the last time it was actually clever wordplay.
Reagan stole it from an American as well but the theme that everything was somehow better 40 years ago predates this country as a whole by like I dunno the history of the world presumably.
The joke is Britain’s full name is Great Britain.
A similar shitty Gadsden flag parody was in a protest flyer I saw recently -
