Need to add Ralph Wiggum somehow
Edit it so the trolly is going over the one but it’s Ralph
Also unrelated but I thought it was spelled Wiggum
It is. Typo.
I always thought that his name means vigum as in vigumovat which means erase so his brain is erased so he's dumb.
Right: Tankies and trumpists
Left: anyone with a heart and a brain.
Tankies being seen as "the right" is the ultimate fuck you to the political coordinates :D
Tbf tankies are right wingers who adopted a leftist aesthetic.
Tankies are red MAGA.
What's that? MAGA is already red, you say?
Yes. Yes it is.
Well, this is as much as they deserve.
This needs to be animated to show the trolley rolling over piles of bodies.
And then loop back to hit the one on the right.
And I think Ralph Wiggum should be included just for that extended meta
Another take:
The happy rider, is a conspiracy theory enjoyer. Happy in the "knowledge" that someone (anyone) is at the controls of the world, it gives comfort in a perverse way. Even though they know that the "controllers" are doing bad things.
The sad rider, is a realist. Can see that they are stuck on a trolley that is currently plowing through people, their personal actions mean nothing in the aggregate of all other actions in the world. They saw that the person at the leaver chose to keep themselves pure, rather than reduce the suffering in the world and taint themselves in the process.
This is brilliant
Person on right is glad because they saw the death that was avoided. Person on left is sad because they see what is lost. America voted which path, and I'll be generous and say that neither passenger could see the other side's track
*too generous
Right: Leninlover1917 living in Canada being excited about democrats losing
Left: Everyone else who's not a fascist or a tankie
I think you meant left on the second one. Although I guess everything is leaning right now.
Thanks, I've fixed it.
I mean, from the bus perspective, yeah! As with an X-ray.
I don't understand what this is supposed to be. The path we just took was toward the people and we also added spinning chainsaws to the front of the trolley
The one person on the path not taken signifies that we are taking the path lined with bodies...
Oh, right.
The guy at the switch represents dem "leadership".
It took the combined efforts of a lot of people to accomplish the Trump presidency. It took Harris' weak platform, it took tankies' attacks on Harris, and it took voters believing that Harris was worse than fascism. It's a democracy, and that means millions of people share the blame.
Jesus Christ stop with this "tankies" bullshit already. Go outside. I fucking wish there were millions of "tankies" out there swaying US elections, but there aren't. Attacks land most solidly when they are based in truths. I personally did not vote for Harris because of her unapologetic support for Israel's genocide. How many other people did the same? A hundred thousand maybe? A couple hundred thousand?
The democrats fucked up by assuming that "not Trump" would get out the vote like it did in 2020. Unfortunately, they haven't done shit for people since then. They've had 4 years to get shit done that nobody could argue with, but they didn't. Instead, they took a hard right turn in the campaign (Gaza, border policy, "muscular military", etc). Predictably, this didn't " energize the base".
Democrat leadership decided fascism was preferable to any capital concessions to the working class. It wasn't the first time, and it won't be the last.
Go away.
I get that you're grieving right now. I hope you'll come back in a week and read this again.
GO AWAY.
