I’ve read through this a few times and I really cant understand what its trying to communicate. I get that its anti isreal and bigots but I dont get the humor.
Like why is he saying its worth $10 and then giving $5 to isreal and charging $5 for it? And how does centrism relate to constantly dropping the price ie $10 to $5 to $3 to $2?
Centrist democrats in congress constantly negotiate by starting in the center.
They may want to get rid of all student debt.
But they want to be good faith, bipartisan law makers, so they soften their stance to begin negotiation. They bring to the negotiation table something like, “no student debt for teachers, government workers, and social workers.”
The Republican lawmakers then say, “meet us in the middle. We’ll only get rid of debt for government workers, if they work 10 years in government.”
The centrists agree.
And centrist voters are just as dumb. They vote for their strongest positions to be the starting point of negotiations. Want affordable healthcare? Start your negotiations with free healthcare for all. At the very least, when you meet in the middle, you’ll have affordable healthcare.
Let me see if I’m following. Please correct me where necessary.
Centrist democrats start off at a compromised position, and compromise further.
Centrist voters bid to an extreme high, so that their compromise is where they actually want to be.
And, both these strategies are equally dumb.
Is that all correct?
[edit: I just realized why the second position is dumb. The question I was leading up to was ‘why is the second position dumb, that sounds like a solid tactic’, and then I saw that they compromised on free healthcare.]
I think from your edit, youre getting it. But to be clear:
Centrist voters bid to their exact position. They are walking into the negotiating room with their ideal final offer.
A smart centrist democratic voter would vote for a far left politician, thus bidding to an extreme high, so that their compromise is where they want to be.
It sounds like you may not be American, but for context completely unrelated to this comic, Amy Schumer’s uncle is feckless Chuck Schumer. Obviously, and not just in the interest of not wanting to get sued, I chose the name Chuck at random.
Oh and I forgot to answer the additional question. Good ol’ Chucky boy gives money to Israel for the love of the game. There was a subtle nod the the banana stand in Arrested Development when the first Israel donation.
Centrists love genocide. It’s one of the main reasons people choose to vote for a centrist over a progressive. Centrists take joy in murdering middle eastern kids, just like Republicans.

Ahhh! Okay. Thank you so much for taking the time to clarify!
No problem-o!

Want to plagiarize my art? Here are all original images of the frames!
They are called “panels”
Not if someone plagiarizes it and turns it into a movie!
Thanks though, til
