Political Memes

the worst part isn't even how paralyzingly stupid they are, it's that they're proud of that fact

Have they actually used it or did Rage just say "don't use our shit"?

Haha, I suppose I was too late.

There's a big sign outside Jacksonville on 295 that says "Trump listens to Lynyrd Skynyrd"

My wife showed me the lyrics to Sweet Home Alabama and damn if it didn’t seem to indicate that they’re left of their fans. Namely the lines

In Birmingham, they love the governor (boo, boo, boo!) 
Now we all did what we could do 
Now Watergate does not bother me, uh-uh 
Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth

Which I read as “we don’t all love our state’s politics, but also don’t blame us for the shit done by a president from California”

That type of mindless embracing of something you're not really paying attention to, is typical right-wing mindlessness.

Check out the lyrics to Bruce Springsteen "Born In The USA" while keeping in mind that reagan used it in 1984 presidential election campaign rallies and even mentioned it in gushing, patriotic speech demagoguery, I believe. Never bothered to see what that song is actually about - Vietnam veterans abandoned by their own government and country, as the America they grew up in is decaying into the Rust Belt.

The corpse formerly known as Prince

God I wish.

I'm guessing Prince and Bowie probably did prior to the 2016 election.

And probably Ted Nugent.

Re-appropriation is the name of the game. These jerks don't really make much art for themselves; a movement 60+ years old really should have an identifiable subculture with its own stuff by now. Instead, they're very good at acting like a bunch of kleptos, running with what they can.

Ok the amount of people voting you need to learn how to do a Will then cuz special types of Executors are appointed for after death to make such decisions. This is pretty common with people with even a moderate amount of success particularly if they have any type of asset or property (intellectual included) to have looked after that becomes part of an estate.
