This is a Funny One
This week's strip manages to satire the pro-forma political establishment response to any political challenge, the media's consistently tepid coverage of the most aggregious and outrageous political revelations and the public's reliably confused to far right wing dog whistle diversions, all at the same time.
To top it off, the hilarious drawings capture the various cynical actors remarkably well, as usual.
Political discussion in this country has been reduced to nonsensical farce as the most insignificant issues are given a weighty value in the public arena, while the largest, most fundamental issues remain all but ignored.
This strip clevely captures the reactionary and absurdly low level of political discourse that prevails throughout the entire media and political establishment, not to mention the abysmally low level of political awarness that dominates the long infantilized general public.
I rate this one 5 chuckles!
