No more capeshit or terf wizards. They consumed different media and updated their reference pools.
What media would you want that to be?
It wouldn’t change anything, but the memes and stuff would be from something else.
I think it would be fun if Sailor Moon reentered the mainstream and people drew comparisons between 
and Usagi.
It would melt my brain, but at least I could laugh at the art that comes from it.
DBZ: the libs telling us that not voting is like refusing to lend Goku your ki for the spirit bomb
I think I’d finally catch a body
Okay that’s really good.
I prefer it when they use Harry Potter and MCU references because it makes it easier to identify garbage opinions.
If I had to pick, though, I’d like it if they started referencing literal children’s books, the kind with pictures and like two lines of text per page. Hungry Caterpillar, Goodnight Moon, Peter Rabbit, the Busytown books, etc. If they’re going to act like children, it would be less jarring if they went all the way with it.
Social safety nets are like If You Give A Mouse A Cookie. The freeloaders will always ask for more. That’s why we need to eliminate welfare to coerce people into crushing jobs with below-poverty wages and have police kill all the those sleeping rough.
That’s almost too coherent an analogy for them. It’s more like “Donald Trump is the mouse from If You Give A Mouse A Cookie. He got a cookie in 2016, but we don’t have to give him another! Vote!”
The Future President at the End of This Book.
lmao
I think there’d be something funny about them adopting telenovela references for political analogies as an awkward way to do superficial identity politics. Like they wouldn’t even watch the shows, they’d just disseminate in their circlejerks the kinds of comparisons to make between characters and real life politicians and then act like leftists and conservatives not getting it is because they’re racist.
battletech would be an interesting one
kinda surprised they don’t already considering the Capellans and the obvious cultures that faction is drawn fromBarbarella
there’s a DANG CHEETO feeding the MATMOS in the white house!
joe biden is Pygar
hillary is just like julia dobreva
Oh God, I would be completely convinced we live in hell.
But it would be very funny.
EDIT: Trump is obviously king Frissel!
We have the purest, the purplest cocaine here, it’s never been done before. You know I had one of my advisors show up to me today and said “King Frissel, maybe you should go easy on the Nose Candy today” and immediately I had him, had him sent to the Apricot Suzerainty. We do not let people skip on the cocaïne here, believe me.
also, “khaleesi is coming to westeros” to describe hillary was actually a great line from Obama('s translator) back in 2015, I still think it’s funny.
Also (and this is me coming out as a liberal and a asoiaf fangirl) I think tywin is a good comparison for Putin bc for both of them, their fans hype them up as stone cold strategists- but a lot of the time they act out of revenge/vindictiveness and/or fear of losing face, to their own detriment.
