minus-squareSkyezOpen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·3 months agoSatire sure, but also an actual political cartoon in its own right.
minus-squareSatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9arrow-down10·3 months agoReally? Why isn’t it labeled as such?
minus-squareGuerillaGorillas@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up18·edit-23 months agoTop right corner has it labeled from The Onion, actually, though it’s a pretty tiny font.
minus-squaretaiyang@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·3 months agoOn mine it’s actually low res enough that onion isn’t ledgable. I only know its Onion because I’ve seen his work before.

minus-squareilinamorato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·3 months agoThat’s a pretty common joke Kelly’s comics include. It’ll be a totally normal part of modern life, like “social media” or “streaming tv” or something, and it’ll be marked with an asterisk labeling it “(latest fad)”

minus-squareheavy@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11arrow-down1·3 months agoI thought this was purposefully making fun of Ben Garrison, but now I’m not sure.
minus-squarebdonvr@thelemmy.clublinkfedilinkarrow-up16arrow-down1·3 months agoTotally, this is the cartoon of The Onion. It’s satire.
minus-squarefrezik@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up7·3 months agoI think the Kelly comics predate Garrison. Either way, most of them dig in hard to Poe’s Law. This is on the more obvious side of most of them.
