  • It’s meant for a bit of fun (and maybe trolling some MAGAs) by someone with too much time…and a lack of smell. Like what’s the point of Trump nfts having him shopped into a decent body or that gold mascot version of him at rallies or the AI art of demon or communist Kamala. At least this took some actual effort on the part of the creator.







  • Magneto’s whole shtick is that he survived the holocaust. This made him a radical against discrimination. So when he sees the mutant minority starting to get the same treatment as Jews in Germany (dehumanizing propaganda, lists and “yellow stars”) he’s like “not this time” and decides to start fighting before things get concentration camp bad.

    Professor X believes that regular humans and mutants can reach an understanding despite all the propaganda to the contrary. But if mutants on one side (magneto)attack then due to the powers only other mutants are really effective, both for stopping them and for showing that it’s “not all mutants”.




  • Rush Limbaugh. He was basically the previous Alex Jones.

    Conservative pundit and overall trash human being who generally raged against anything good or remotely progressive. Hypocritical angry fat white man. You can add him to the list of why Republicans are so far right, so antiscience, and conspiracy theorists. He even argued about cigars being good for you. He was a smoker and he died a few months after this pic due to stage 4 lung cancer.

    “I don’t wish death on anyone, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.”

    Just like Reagan his grave should be used as a gender neutral bathroom.



  • I’m a younger millennial. I was still pretty young during Bush jr term 1 and while there was certainly distrust of Cheney and Bush there was a general positive note towards the actual office of the president and a congress that while slow still did things. I hadn’t learned about Newt’s fuckery nor really understood Bush v Gore. Then there was Iraq and it took a long time before we heard about the lies used to start the war. Then Obama was overall a positive influence on the presidential reputation(deservedly or not is debatable). Congress (at least Rs) certainly lost much of my trust under Obama with the shutdowns and nominee holdups. This is when I started paying more attention. Then, of course Trump made any trust in the office 0 (if not negative) and Rs lost all trust from the repeated hypocrisy and plain evil and of course the impeachment debacles. Biden was improving trust in the office of the president at least somewhat before Gaza. Congress on the other hand (Dems included now because of Manchin, Sinema, Feinstein, etc) has lost any remaining trust I had.

    I can’t speak for others but while I generally always disliked congressional representatives I naively had faith in the institution overall for longer than I should have.
