Transcript:
Baldo: I've met with real Americans... Baldo: And they agree we are heading in the right direction. Dad: Get to work, Mr. Politico. Baldo: Americans are tired of all the name-calling!
“Real Americans?” If Baldo and his family are not real Americans, then who is? They reflect the values of human decency and hard work. They also add to our cultural diversity, one of our country’s greatest assets.
“Straight towards communism, with LOW INFORMATION VOTERS leading the way.” The real low information voters are those who can be convinced to vote for corporate exploitation of the working people and the richest 1%, and against their own interests. Listen to Faux much?
“Communist/Fascist state”? They are opposites. Please make up your "mind. You will be wrong no matter which you choose.
This is one of my very favorite strips. Hector and Carlos, you rock! Thanks for doing what you do.
It is amazing to me that both sides see " Low Information Voters" as the idiots voting for the enemy. As if they can create facts.
Low info voters choose according to whim. Some actually flip coins in the booth, decide by hair color or musical ability, even just vote opposite their friends, canceling his vote.
Yes a Communist/Fascist state are close opposite idealogies but they both end up with loss of individual freedoms which is exactly where we are headed.
In a true communistic state there is ultimate freedom is a correct statement. The problem is that it is made up of humans which ultimately fall to greed and power. Where is a true communistic state in the history of man that really works??
I agree all political parties are absolutely corrupt. I think it is a choice of the better of two evils. Over all though which system has been better for the masses of people? Which system would you most like to live in??
Exactly, True communism will never exist so long as mankind has selfishness and greed embedded in their heart…. I took it for granted that everyone knew this.
So again, Over all though which system has been better for the masses of people? Which system would you most like to live in??
