Vagina Monologue

AND AT PROTESTS.

Comma should've been a colon.
- Another place not meant for governments.
  
  A pretty effective place to put coffee, though. Or any drug really...
- Can a colon be used instead of a vagina?
  
  Only if you love jesus...

I mean, she's got a point!

Um... not sure about that.
I don't like the government going down my throat... 😬
- How are you getting a vagina in your throat? A clit perhaps…
  
  "I like my government how I like my coffee"
  Coffee goes in your mouth. This implies you want your government reaching inside you.

Love this! Please x post it to !Feminism@beehaw.org or !Witchesvspatriarchy@lemmy.ca

I'd like to take a moment to appreciate the overall range, style, and quality of protest signs on display this past weekend. If you compare all this activity to all the republican¹ rallies in the last few years, the difference is stark. The left really does have all the creative² power.
Do not use his name.
"MAGA" is re-used from the regan era which in turn is kinda/sorta re-used from an older UK campaign: "Make Britian great again". Jerks can't even come up with a decent slogan on their own with half that much typographical impact.

I kinda feel like we’re beyond joke meme protest signs. This shit isn’t funny anymore
- The court jester was very often the vehicle by which a king would learn of any discontent among his people. Humor and politics are like Batman and Robin.

  Soldiers makes jokes during WW2. Cheer up. Make jokes. Kill Nazis. Defend the US Constitution. Make America Nazi-Free Again!
- Don't read it, then.
  Try a sub that doesn't have MEME in the title.
- Humor is important.
  Laughter doesn't erase our better sensibilities about real topics. In fact, it's the sweetener that makes that medicine go down. Otherwise, all we have is the horror of stark and bleak realities that have already pushed many of us to the edge of burnout. These people aren't making light of our situation, or being insensitive about the plight of those effected, they're being kind while reminding us of the core message: there are people in charge that believe in cruelty as a valid form of governance. Without humor, we'd all be looking away most of the time as it's simply too much.
  Also, your mind will work overtime to block things that hurt or shock you. But you're far more likely to remember a good laugh. Jokes get the message out, and help make it stick.
- Too bad
