    People downvoting this thread because they’re not getting that this is satire by the onion makes this post infinitely funnier. Well played OP

      I don’t get it… Is the joke just that conservative cartoons label everything and use straw-man stereotypes?

          I suppose it’s probably funnier if you actually encounter these irrationally conservative people in real life - though I suppose I prefer the situation where I don’t 😅

              Nice try, I’m not eating the onion this time.

              (Seriously though, the satire isn’t actually worse than this. Which makes sense, because… What the actual fuck. But yeah, that does make it unclear that it’s satire and what point it’s trying to make.)

    I’ll admit, I ate the Onion.

    Moving this out of the contrext of the onion pushes it from “haha, WTF?” to just “WTF?”.

      Lady Liberty crying and holding a beer labeled “beer” didn’t give it away for you?

    Wait… But how could Homer be a crude stereotype of a white male?

    … He’s bright yellow!
