I love the little "bad" things about this: the cop wearing shorts, the electric car, ... and people looking happy.

[-] daellat@lemmy.world 99 points 1 year ago

Oh no, two same sex couples that are in love and kissing. What a nightmare..

[-] TragicNotCute@lemmy.world 51 points 1 year ago

I just noticed that. Everyone is smiling.

[-] zaph@sh.itjust.works 44 points 1 year ago

A lot of it already exists too. Like if you want to burn a flag in public you'll have a designated area your permit would allow. Cops wear shorts sometimes. Gay couples exist. Statues of much worse people exist. So much of it is "I'm afraid of people."

And no bicycles. Or bike lanes.

what are you talking about this is a dystopia the abortion clinic has a sale sign in other words healthcare isn't free in this image americans cannot conceive of free healthcare even in the "leftist takeover" imaginary scenario also there's still cars being used for just getting from point a to b literal hell world

Keep in mind a right wingers view of the left is like a Catholic's view of satanism, agnosticism, and atheism. The assumption isn't that the left wants fundamentally different things, the assumption is that the left wants different means to the same end, that end being a controlled world view. When right wingers create these things, they tell on themselves. They present what the left wants as simply being fully in opposition to their target audience thinks about. They view left and right as oppositional parties thirsty for control. It doesn't matter if the reason the left defended Bill Clinton in the 90s was that impeachment should be used to curb illegal behavior, not for personal petty squabbles. That's how the right uses impeachment trials, so that's their presumption of what the left uses them for, too.

As for the things the left does want but don't appear here? These are things the right doesn't conceive of as being actual aims. No public transit? That's because they do not care about or think about it

I'm not particularly enamoured with that man and his sheep

Neither are wearing seat belts

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 83 points 1 year ago

This fucking sucks. The things I want are a lot more radical and creative. And I fucking hate Bill Clinton.

I will never use the designated flag burning area. I'm burning my flags wherever the fuck it please me.

[-] ShittyKopper@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 1 year ago

i'll go to the designated flag burning area
...and NOT burn a flag!

Absolutely not.

You should be able to burn flags anywhere, not just in a designated area.

[-] GreenMario@lemm.ee 18 points 1 year ago

Especially that shitty thing blue line flags.

[-] teamevil@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Are you referring to the "New Wave Nazi" flags?

All this going on, and would you look at that, the very traditional looking couple in the middle look perfectly fine. In fact, they look pretty happy about life. As does everyone else. The horror.

Edit: zoomed in a little more. I guess their supposed to be angry? I thought the guy was happy at first. Not sure what exactly they have to be angry about, as literally no one is doing anything to them.

[-] ElderWendigo@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 year ago

The horror indeed. Everybody seems happy. Although I'm concerned that the sheep can't give proper consent. But if they've mastered cloning, maybe that sheep is more sapient and vocal than I'm assuming a sheep to be. Then a gain the simplest explanation is that consent is just a conservative blondspot. I'm also very concerned that there is a certain lack of diversity here, but that's probably just another natural blindspot for the conservative artist.

You know what else I don't see in this picture? No homeless. No cops murdering citizens. No children being shot in school. No unregulated, untaxed, and unsafe drugs being sold on street corners. No surveillance on every corner. Obviously no shame about sex, but again I want to know how that sheep is able to consent.

[-] WayTooDank@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

There is nothing in the picture that would suggest an untoward relationship between the sheep and it's owner. Please get your mind out of the gutter. /s

The cop should stop the flag burner!

The sausage will end up full of carcinogens.

[-] Magickmaster@feddit.de 31 points 1 year ago

Due to health protection laws, the flag is made of natural fibers and paints that are non-carcinogenic

[-] float@feddit.de 48 points 1 year ago

No trash, happy people, everyone minding their own business. That must really piss of the conservatives.

[-] Jerkules_Jerkules@lemmy.world 45 points 1 year ago

central city porn distributors? Honey, we have the internet. Also the government controlled, tax paid, abortion clinic has a sales sign, so it's still charging even though taxes are paying for it? I mean, I could totally see the US doing this but, leftists would just have the national healthcare system pay for it with the taxes and leave it at that.

It's clearly false. In a leftist world the man and the sheep would take the bus.

Anyone else notice how happy everyone looks? Crazy how your happiness goes through the worth when you're not trying to control what everyone else does...

Not quite. That abortion clinic has a sale sign up which means it still charges for abortions.
