Cartoon consisting of two panels. In the first panel, we see a  billboard with a graph showing the rising number of victims of the war in the Middle East. People are walking and driving by, ignoring the billboard. In the second panel we see the same billboard and graph, except that the graph is now showing the rising gas prices. Cars have stopped in the middle of the street and people are looking up in consternation and panic at the billboard.

This is not to both sides this shit.

The United States is also a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them.

This is simply to point out that it’s very common for people to ignore reality, deny the facts, and metaphorically stuff their heads in the sand while the world burns around them.

If living through the last few endless American wars has taught me anything, it's that the government is not a democracy and our opinions don't matter. Blaming yourself because Pete Hegseth bombs Iran makes about as much sense as blaming yourself for Putin invading the Donbas.
