Political Memes

What about the spray tan eccenric NY city real estate agent that shits on a golden toliet with an army of yall-qaeda terrorists

True story. After the 2016 election, there was a panel discussion. They had all the creators of the top US political TV dramas; The West Wing: Scandal: Veep: House of Cards and others. Every writer and producer said the same thing. If they'd had a character who said that they 'liked soldiers who didn't get captured' the advertisers and network bosses would have demanded that the character be hated by all Americans.

My gen x friends complained about the villains in Captain Planet, but the we got Trump.

Also, Tomorrow Never Dies was loosely based on Rupert Murdoch.

Hey, there’s also a New York businessman obsessed with gold and status who has political influence and ties to the ex KGB agent with goals of overturning democracy

Britain is not holding up its end here, producing the mega-shagger we need to save us all.

Bezos also seems pretty villain-y.

Dyslexic ass universe we live in . The 2020's were supposed to be 'the future', an advanced post-scarcity world. We got a post-satire world instead

Real estate baron that desperately wants to be dictator is pretty stupid too.

Have we forgotten about Trump, the Koch brothers, hmm who else.

We still have Murdoch media empire. The secretive media mogul pulling the strings from the shadows at the behest of the rich and powerful

Let me FTFY:

Penchant for poisoning, and having comrades mysteriously fall from very high places

The real fiction is that government agencies would be trying to rein them in. If Musk came up with a ray that turned people into eldrich-style horrors, those agencies would be lined up as buyers.

Austin Powers at least got phallic shaped rockets right though

Putin and Musk or From Russia With Love and Moonraker?

Especially the part where, he has a bunch of followers who claimed the emerald mine never existed and that it's all a hoax by his detractors. Even though the main man himself has admitted that his fortune came from a God damn Emerald mine.

I mean Elon is basically Flintheart Glomgold.

who is the former KGB agent?

Look I get it's a joke but calling Elon and Putin "our two main antagonists" is mind numbingly stupid and doesn't seem to be the punchline.

The only group who I can think of that would be true for would be college freshman from upper middle class backgrounds that get their news exclusively from social media and do not have any attention span as a result of the Adderall shortage.

Putin has started the largest land war in Europe since WW2. Elon does shit that wouldn't even put him in the top 5 of evil billionaires. He's just super active on social media so anyone who puts in the slightest amount of effort can see what he's up to.
