Gravity Falls is amazing. If you have never seen it, you should go out and watch all of it. I have been waiting forever for his Netflix project to ever come out. I wonder why it's been delayed so long? Maybe because they worry it would be like Matt Groening's period animation piece that wasn't really that amazing.
Republicunt strategy: use a phone farm to follow people, then use them to declare that they are “unfollowing” because of XYZ. It’s meant to demoralise on the premise that people will whore themselves for likes and followers. Republicunts don’t follow people on social media to begin with, that would introduce too much dissonance to their feeds. These phone farms are an interesting thing, @OP
uh, you do know that the soviet union collapsed, right? The people who run it are not in any way, shape, or form act like nor call themselves communists.
The reality is that Russia is exactly what the Right has been describing for decades. Strongman leader, oligarchs that are above the law, a singular Religion that holds power, racial supremacy, sexist laws, anti-lgbt, anti-democracy, and on and on. The Evangelicals have been interfacing with the Russian Orthodox for decades. They want this.
yeah, but you conflated Russia with communism when you made the comment. No worries, but it's something I've seen a lot with people trying to make fun of Republicans working with Russia when Reagan condemned them. Which misses the evolutionary fact that Russia is not commie and is not seen as commie from conservative views. It's like a weird gotcha that doesn't work except in liberal echo chamber.
"commie" these guys are seriously stuck in the past. The "weird american calling everything he doesn't like communism" was already a cliché 30 years ago.
They always think their absence is some kind of punishment, when really it provides an almost overwhelming feeling of relief. I wish more of them would go the fuck away.
The creator of Gravity Falls, from which this image of Grunkle Stan is taken. Marvelous show. Worth the watch and worth checking out all the Easter Eggs from the obvious ones (message whispered in reverse every opening scene and substitution cyper at the end) to the less obvious ones (message written on a stall in Morse Code in one scene). But also for kids. But also batshit crazy in parts. Built for the conspiracy theorist.
And if you aren't sure about watching it, here's my advice: Commit to S1 right up through The Time Traveler's Pig. I was enjoying it until that episode which then put the show into overdrive. So masterfully done.
It's a kids show with a good dose of coming-of-age themes, some dark humor, a subtheme of mystery and ciphers, many great and only a few meh episodes, and a dignified end after two seasons.
The American right uses "communist" the same way the Russian right uses "fascist". They just mean "person who opposes my country's imperalist ambitions".

Alex Hirsch is such a sassy lil panda. I love it.

Hirsch is such a treasure.
ImSilverTongue
Alex Hirsch is being mean to people on twitter? Guess that means it's time to rewatch Gravity Falls.
TeddyBruhsvelt
Gravity falls is one of my favourite things ever and I am super glad to see Hirsch is still a real G

Yeah, it's always great when people who make the things you love prove their not shit ppl.
Usually we get the opposite
Eyeetsass
Cool. Shitty people on shitty Twitter displaying their preference for shitty fascist networks.

The person trying to make the country more like Russia is calling a cartoonist commie

Well, I DID say in no uncertain terms "trying to make the country more like Russia" so we're on the same page. I do know the USSR fell, yes.

Red rising fandom is full of these nazi scum. Can we get this as well?

God I love Alex Hirsch.

How do you watch gravity falls and think the creator likes boot licking idiotic fascist.

So, did he just not watch the episode where Stan kicked the shit out of 3 FBI agents?

Totally in character.

I’m all for bashing ICE but um who is Alex Hirsch?

Not to worry, I had no idea, either.

Creator of Gravity Falls, the show that character in the meme is from

AccordingToYourMom
Just from context clues I’d say a creator of something which has a fandom. What something? Probably the same something where the meme comes from.
Again, this is just from context, I’m unfamiliar with this person or the animation that the image is from.

Ok thanks. Never actually seen Gravity Falls, I’ve only encountered it via memes.

It's a great show, Hirsch only made two seasons, but it's two seasons with a very good story arc and a really solid ending.
FailureFactory
It's a kids show with a good dose of coming-of-age themes, some dark humor, a subtheme of mystery and ciphers, many great and only a few meh episodes, and a dignified end after two seasons.
Salticido
It's one of those kids show that's not *just* for kids. I watched it as a 30-ish year old with no kids and consider it one of my favorite shows.
doctorId
That they managed to make a legitimately terrifying villain out of a triangle in a top hat is pretty impressive.
somebackup
You should watch it.
JohnnySilverballs
Gotta love how these right-wing dipshits STILL don't know what "commie" means.
TheDoctorCrankenstein
I love watching them pop a blood vessel when you take being called a commie as a compliment.
GlenL
If they were capable of being educated, they wouldn't be right wingers
unluckyandbored
They don't know what a lot of words mean.
TheWombatStrikesAgain
The American right uses "communist" the same way the Russian right uses "fascist". They just mean "person who opposes my country's imperalist ambitions".
eathotdog
According to them liberal and commie are interchangeable so they've a ways to go in the figuring political shit out department
Bossco20
Commie: Anyone who opposes pedophiles or opposes shooting civilians for fun
BoomFountain52
They consider anything to the left of the rich hunting minorities for sport to be communism.

ArgentXero
Commie is a slur that means "non-fascist".
johnxbear
Everyone knows it means "person i don't like". It's not hard.
JohnnySilverballs
Sad thing is: that's exactly what they think it means.

Wait until they learn about Antifa
randomwalrus
Antifa is easy to understand, it is Tifa (from FF7) but an ant.
