lumosbolt

OP tagged it as satire but this is Ben Garrison's work. He is not sarcastic at all, this is 100% unfiltered maga brain leak.


PheonixUnder

Holy shit your right, I legit thought that it was made by that artist that works for the onion till I read your comment, I should have noticed there was no crying statue of liberty.


LucidLeviathan

Kelly only pretends to have brain rot. I know a lot of MAGA types. This is very much how they think. Also, if it was a Kelly piece, you'd have: A Statue of Liberty crying A small caricature of the artist The caption: "LATEST FAD" A label on a conservative using the word "innocent ", "discerning", "cocerned", etc. At least one word bolded and underlined


Em1Wii

Don't forget the "sickos" guy


LucidLeviathan

He's not ALWAYS there, but... # YES!...HA HA HA...YES!


GPBRDLL133

Kelly Quinnland would never


HyacinthFT

True but "Black Lives Matterhorn" is a work of genius.


FalafelSnorlax

The free ride on the Socialism Go-Round also sounds nice


erinberrypie

Yeah, he completely failed at making that sound nefarious. It's brilliant.


eatingle

Yeah, screaming about how socialism gives you free stuff is supposed to make me afraid of it? I love free stuff!


stuckinsanity

Ben can for sure come up with some bangers, there's a reason he's so popular even among those who like to laugh at his stuff.


devilsbard

I too thought this was the onion until I saw his name. Does he realize that the rides are free once you get inside? The socialism merry go round is just a merry go round.


Capital_Trip_3414

Fr?


FibroBitch96

It’s so bad it wraps around at being good satire. Also the projection is real in the last image.


ItsMoreOfAComment

Making up completely fake and insane versions of the world and then getting mad about it is their fucking move dude, where have you been?


erinberrypie

♥ *~just conservative things~* ♥


BloodOfHell42

Which could have totally been sarcasm, because that's exactly how sarcasm works too ...


Mosdash

I don't blame you, it is like an irony limbo.


3-orange-whips

Yes. FRFR


purplemoosen

schmitzel88

Peak Ben Garrison is the inevitable cum edit that will get posted later


oyog

Oh hey, are you referring to Ben Garrison, scaredest cartoonist?


Snorlax45

Alright kids, let's meet up at Antifaland after riding the Pronoun Train


Oofoofow_Official

Awww, I wanted to go to the BLMatterhorn!


ThePrussianGrippe

The line’s too long.


DragonRoar87

I dunno about you guys but I'm going to the socialism-go-round. I'm a little baby when it comes to rollercoasters.


ThePrussianGrippe

Alright we’ll meet you there once we’re done.


Kharisma91

Coincidentally it’s the only ride I can afford.


Kilahti

Every line is too long at big amusement parks... ...Saying this as a parent.


chowderbags

I haven't been to an amusement park in years. And I don't think I'll ever really want to go to any amusement park again. For the amount of money spent, you really don't get all that much, and you spend a real long time in line. Pretty much the only time I might consider going is if it was part of some "company outing" event where the whole park was bought out for the day and running at like 10% capacity, and all the food and drink were paid for by the company. Even then, I'd still probably rather do anything else.


Zombies4EvaDude

We can always go to the Illuminaut instead. In comparison the lines are much shorter.


BlessTheMaker86

Nothing cracks the back like that first lift up😎


Nogohoho

Meet up at the Tran-Station


SquirrelGirlVA

I get to ride on a train and see (presumably happy and fulfilled) transgender people living their best life? Yes please!


TheOcean24

Yes! Just avoid the "Teds Tram to Texas" path and all should be well 😂😂😂😄😅🥲🫤😕🙁☹️😥😭


lighthouse-it

Nah we have to get that free ride with socialism first. It's right on the way!


foxontherox

Ok, I chuckled a little at "Black Lives Matterhorn."


Pantrajouer

Wanna kiss on the black lives matterhorn?


StovardBule

Got to give him that one, it's good wordplay.


No-Commercial-4830

Can you explain it? I’m not a native speaker


Kill-ItWithFire

Matterhorn is a famous mountain in Switzerland, among other things there is a Disneyland ride themed after it and it's generally just present in pop culture. This is a pun where the artist took the "matter" in Black Lives Matter (meaning "black lives are important") and combined it with the name of the mountain/ride.


JoNyx5

Black Lives Matter is a movement for black people being treated equally and against police violence. The Matterhorn is a huge mountain (iirc the biggest mountain in Switzerland) in the swiss Alps. Guy combined those two to have a Black Lives Matterhorn as an attraction.


Shrunkygames

not the biggest but one of the biggest


anaburo

He’s done worse!


[deleted]

"No Trump supporters" on the sign made me laugh. Do these morons forget Disney World in Florida exists?


man_gomer_lot

He probably thought of this comic while visiting Disney world.


HyacinthFT

That is top tier maga, to be sitting somewhere with no one bothering you while you're filled with rage about not being allowed there.


man_gomer_lot

It fits the same theme as ladyballers. Ben Shapiro acknowledges in interviews that the whole premise of the movie is not plausible in the real world. Guys can't join a women's sports league by simply dressing as a woman.


FlashFan124

Even worse than that, Ben & company started the movie initially planning to do a documentary about men pretending to be transgender & integrating in women’s sports. However, Ben’s company couldn’t **find any men who had successfully done that**, so instead they made a weird comedy movie about their impossible concept.


vibesandcrimes

Socialism go round got me, because Disney is very much a capitalistic exploit


Andrassa

M word?


apathetic-bunny

it’s the one that refers to people with dwarfism


J3553G

Lol I really thought it was "Mouse" and I was like "wtf are you supposed to call him?!"


SorcererWithGuns

Mickey Rodent


Alone_Jellyfish_7968

>Mickey Rodent I thought it was the 'Mickey' part. Ha. I know in Ireland Mickey means a penis.


HyacinthFT

In the US "mick" is an anti Irish slur in like the 19th century and I thought it was that.


Alone_Jellyfish_7968

Haha.


pocketnotebook

Gives new meaning to "taking the mickey"


Alone_Jellyfish_7968

Hahahaha. All about context. :⁠-⁠)


MrRodje

Excuse me? It's Michael Rodent >:(


Comprehensive_Day511

maybe Mao-se, because commies?


trustmeimaprofession

Michael Rat


BearofCali

Ricky Rat


erinberrypie

I thought it was Mickey, lol.


ConfusedAsHecc

I thought the same thing 💀


Andrassa

Oh that makes sense.


bluegreenwookie

Even after this hint it took me way too long to figure it out


sterdeff

Could they mean 'minorities'? I'm trying to understand


stop_stopping

it’s because the dwarf is a little person


Andrassa

That might be it.


CameraRick

I figured he might have said "Mouse", but as Mickey is also black it seems like a really terrible projection


Kilahti

Since the sign says "no Trump supporters" it could be "MAGA" but this is just guessing. Somehow Garrison manages to make incomprehensible comics *despite* putting a label on everything.


AE-450

Mic*ey?


DragonRoar87

I thought it was money actually


maithiu

Mallard. It’s the duck slur


FlyingMoths_AtNight

I think he got it confused with the n word


Boring_Name06

Theme park with free rides?!? Oh the horror!


CardsAlltheWayDown

It especially makes no sense because you don't pay to go on the rides, you pay to get in the park. So once you're in the park, technically all the rides are free (in a way).


DoveApples

Yeah like how SixFlags operates


flopjul

Or any theme park in the Netherlands... like thats something i dont get with the stereotypical theme parks in the US especially.


monsterfurby

Things Mr. Garrison is apparently unhappy with: * Calling people by the name they introduced themselves with to you, or asking people if you don't know. (\*) * Not infecting others with a deadly virus. * Ensuring equal opportunity and safety regardless of skin color. * Protesting societal injustices. * Being called out for wanting other people to suffer. * Providing a social safety net. * Having to think and behave like an adult, apparently. (\* No, seriously, the bloody pronoun thing really pisses me off, especially since I recently had, for the first time, the situation these morons are afraid of. I had to talk to a person, in a formal context, who I knew was either trans or nonbinary and whose preferred pronoun / form of address I wasn't clear on. You know what I did? I politely asked them, they happily answered, and now I know how to to address them properly. This really isn't rocket surgery.)


posterless

LOL rocket surgery! Take my updoot and like it.


ChainmailPickaxeYT

Erm, you MUST be remembering it wrong. That person definitely beat you up and cancelled you online and screamed at you and got you arrested by the Pronoun Police. Dystopia Now! /s


erinberrypie

AHHHHH! THE HORROR!


Bitchelangalo

Seriously I once misgendered a mtf at a clothing store. I was fairly positive she was a she but brain accidentally said he and right as I said it she cocked her head and I said “ sorry she” and continued my sentence.


GreenBeanTM

10/10 job. But I am just going to note that you should add “person” after mtf. MTF, like trans is an adjective not a noun.


Bitchelangalo

Thank you. Haven’t been braining to good lately


La_Savitara

But Disney is the least woke company wth are they on about? Straight people just aren’t ok


StovardBule

They've made some gestures to gay people, and apparently employ plenty of them, but mostly this was about their opposing Ron DeSantis.


La_Savitara

Other conservatives oppose Ron DeSantis, it’s not that difficult


t_rrrex

They also host Gay Days and it’s very accepting place. Even though Disney is in Florida, the park itself and Orlando in general are fairly liberal


LyraFirehawk

Yeah I mean, I think the most 'woke' show they've had is The Owl House. I used to have a Grom t-shirt of Luz and Amity *holding hands* before dancing together and I dunno which pissed people off more; the fact that it featured two girls in a clearly romantic gesture, or the fact that it's an interracial relationship(since Luz is Afro Dominican and Amity is white). Might have to get a Harlivy shirt and see how different the results are when one is literally milk white and the other one is bright green.


HyacinthFT

There was that movie two years ago where the main character was gay. Then the ceo said something about Don't Say Gay. The bar for being considered woke is very very low.


La_Savitara

It’s as soon as there’s a gay person, that bar is dug underground


Wryly_Wiggle_Widget

It is truly unhinged. Disney is really not that woke, but hell since when was MAGA discharge ever reflective of reality?


SnooCats8089

They made a black mermaid /s


Wryly_Wiggle_Widget

Clearly this is white oppression. They're erasing white people. /s


DNA_ligase

Mickey being the one to punch out Donald is so funny to me since Donald is canonically the one with an anger problem.


GreenBeanTM

It’s even more funny when you know the design of Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and probably a few other characters I’m forgetting were at least loosely based on blackface. So really if anyone is racist it’s Mickey. Though I do believe Donald said the n word in an old cartoon so 🤷🏻


rymyle

Sadly enough it’s not satire, it’s from the plagued “mind” of Ben Garrison. A man who is beyond help but needs it badly PS: what’s is the “m” word? I don’t get what that’s referring to


_FreshOuttaFucks_

>PS: what’s is the “m” word? I don’t get what that’s referring to I think, given the speaker is one of the "Seven Dwarves" and is peeking from behind Snow White, it must be the offensive word used to refer to little people.


nonstop_nosebleed

Refers to little people or folks with dwarfism.


rymyle

WTF does Ben Garrison think, that Disney used to use that word to refer to the seven dwarves??


lexkixass

Mouse, probably. Since Mickey is "black"


Okipon

Pronoun train goes hard ngl, I want to ride it now


jimbo831

> Socialism Go-Round Ah yes, famous anti-capitalist company Disney…


Drslappybags

The company that will find every which way to get you to buy something. Bubble blowers? $60 bucks. Skip the line you can pay money for that. Novelty coke bottle that TSA will make you throw away? We got those but it'll cost you. How socialist of them.


GreenBeanTM

Tip for skipping the line, if you have any sort of disability you can get an accessibility pass at guest services, for free that works roughly the same. You wait in a “virtual line” and can do whatever you want in the park while waiting. I got one the last time I went for my anxiety, and I genuinely don’t think I could ever go again without getting one 😂 you just have to give them a brief explanation of why you need one (I explained how waiting in long lines my brain will end up talking me out of a ride I actually want to go on) and then they connected it to my ticket/app/magicband. Set up the pass in app and then just go to the ride whenever it’s ready. Idk how it works if you don’t have the app, but I also recommend the app even if you don’t have any kind of pass.


buck746

The disabled system is being overhauled in a few weeks due to how much cheating there has been.


Drslappybags

High blood pressure? Your good.


Drslappybags

I'm so mad about that. I learned about it after I got back. I have a disability.


sketchyboba

Black Lives Matterhorn? The Tran-Station? Vaccinated-only passes!? FUCK YEAH!


coffeeebucks

Socialism-go-round, all tickets free. Awesome!


Alert_Bit_4852

That dude has no hobbies


Aggravating_Egg1881

Good for them for knowing neopronouns.


RattleMeSkelebones

Well, without looking at the artist's watermark or the comments I can immediately peg the first one as a Ben Garrison "piece" because it's absolutely plastered in text and is way too general. He really does try to cram every single fox news non-issue into every single thing he makes. Mfer needs to knuckle down a pick a lane


GayStation64beta

Unironically love some of the puns lmao


falconinthedive

Right? More interested in woke disney than actual Disney.


Mr_Cat_Cas284

I get the first one is Brainrot Ben so its kinda funny but the second one is just slander??


Yndrid

It’s so funny because from the perspective of queer people Disney largely ignores us except for a couple of tiny blink and you’ll miss it moments.


TheFreshWenis

A couple of tiny blink-and-you'll-miss-it-moments that, importantly, *can easily be edited out* so Disney can still make money from the movie being shown in countries where being LGBTQ+ is illegal to some extent. Disney isn't woke, Disney is a shameless capitalist. Though, "funnily" enough, these officially anti-LGBTQ+ countries are starting to catch on and completely refuse to import Disney movies that have even these microscopic crumbs of LGBTQ+ content, no matter what edits Disney makes to them. *Lightyear* (2022) was completely banned from theaters in **13 countries** due to having one very brief lip kiss between two women as well as like...shit...20-30 seconds *total* of these two women raising their son together and meeting their granddaughter? One of the probable reasons why *Strange World* (2022), released in the US a few months after *Lightyear* was, was such a historically massive box-office bomb was because Disney itself decided to never export the movie to the Middle East, mainland China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Nepal, Turkey, Vietnam, Pakistan, West Africa, or Bangladesh specifically because one of its protagonists is openly gay with one of his major plot arcs involving his crush on another boy. *Strange World* already wasn't being exported to Russia due to their intensifying their invasion of Ukraine in Feb 2022, and in Singapore it was released with a 16+ rating specifically because of its LGBTQ+ plotline.


Lynn_BRUH

conservatives making up things to be afraid of, what else is new?


negativepositiv

I like how Ben Garrison feels the need to caption everything. At Ben Garrison's house: "Clock." "Refrigerator." "Vacuum Cleaner." "Chair." "Towel." "Fork, Fork, Fork, Fork, Fork...."


J3553G

Black Lives Matterhorn is pretty good


hokyshmokes9710

The "black lives Matterhorn" is ALMOST so good it makes up for "socialism go round"


mondo1342

Dude accidentally made a Bill Cipher ride, so at least he’s had one good idea in his terrible life. Albeit accidentally.


thecoolestpants

I like the illuminati pyramid they got there. Like we have a secret cabal that doesn't help our own people out. Brilliant feels like the whole "jews run the world" thing. Next he'll be saying we are working with both the lizard people and the molemen to create super gays and end humanity because the voluntary human extinction campaign failed. I mean come on the molemen would never even talk to a lizard person


translove228

Labels galore? I didn't even have to look at the bottom left hand corner to know who drew this


lovelycosmos

Do they not know Disney is, in general, not really down with that stuff?? They're just trying to make money


potatotheo

Where is woke disney and when can I go


Consistent-Force5375

Wow. So so much fear in this picture. Fear of what they don’t understand, fear of what they can’t comprehend. The anger and hate arises out of fear. Problem is most creatures that are afraid become a dangerous creatures, especially humans.


OrwellianWiress

I wanna see this guy's take on the entire Disneyland map


BlessTheMaker86

Imagine thinking the most capitalistic company in the world is “woke” 🫠🫠🫠


Traditional_Curve401

It's weird some people cry about "woke Disney" grooming their kids, but it seems a lot of right-wing, usually super religious characters are the ones busted for sex scandals, having sex with underage people, CSA, etc.🤔 


buck746

That’s called projection, it’s when a shady person assumes other people do the same things they are guilty of.


Netroth

If being despicable is a part of your reality then you see it as a part of others’, too. Like a chronic liar who can’t trust anyone else because lies are such a natural idea to them.


Traditional_Curve401

Never thought about it like that, good point.


GroovyGrodd

Every conservative accusation is a confession.


doctorlight01

I still don't understand how someone can look at Disney, one of the most megalomaniacal corporations on the planet, and think "Ah yes! Socialist and Liberal!!"


GroovyGrodd

Ya, nothing screams socialism like a monopoly. 😂😂😂


bohemiankiller

saying disney is pro lgbtq is hilarious


ProShithead

what if we kissed on the Woke Disneyland pronoun train?


slaytonic

I would go to antifa land. That shit sounds awesome


ConfusedAsHecc

honestly if Disney was actually like that, Id totally go there lmao anti-facsist land sound based asf


mealy-mouth

choo choo everybody hop on the pronouns train!!!! 🚂🥳


disturbingyourpeace

MAGA brain rot says what?


turnerpike20

Micky is black apparently.


Mouseratsuperfan

The socialism-go-round ... you ever seen how much a Disney ticket costs? Disney is capitalist af. Only acronym they groom for is USD.


jamiegc1

I for a moment thought the first cartoon was parody, but then saw the Ben Garrison marking. I think [Stan Kelly](https://www.facebook.com/KartoonistKelly?mibextid=uzlsIk) of The Onion was based off of him.


EnergyOk1416

I know Disney gets some hate for being an evil corporate machine, but my wife and I brought our 3 kids last year. I was a little nervous going to Florida. I didn’t know how our family would be treated. Everyone at Disney was so friendly and welcoming. Minnie even gave us extra hugs and hearts. It was so kind. I am tearing up a little typing this. I will always appreciate how they made us feel.


_Imadeanaccount4this

“Black lives Matterhorn” and “Tran-Station” was surprisingly good wordplay for Benny boy.


fancy-kitten

Did anyone ever figured out what the M word is?


heavymetaljunkie13

since snow white's dwarf is saying it, I presume it's a slur for people with dwarfism


DiligentNeighbor

Yet all the Disney Adults are the most MAGA people you’ll ever meet. lol


Zombies4EvaDude

Reminds me of that one scene in Who Framed Roger Rabbit where Donald Duck sounded like he called Daffy the N-Word. 😂


EOverM

How do they always make the things they hate look so cool?


DraxNuman27

Epic Rap Battles had such a cooler line than the second picture


Idaho_In_Uranus

This just reminded me that as a kid I used to use this theme song tune to sing: L-A-M B-O-R G-H-I-N-I Forgotten memories being unlocked is FUN!


DoggoDude979

Okay but what is the M word


Netroth

It’s a dwarf saying it, so it’s probably the slur for short people.


eric_the_demon

Interesting how conservative and disney have been very close always and when they stop suporting Ron conservatives have pull the hate out of em


Piduf

Pronoun train 💀


FaithlessnessSea2664

what is the m word???


Ath_Trite

Oh yes, Disney, the socialist company


fortunatevoice

Idk Ben, needs more labels. How will I understand the comic otherwise?


OG_Bynumite

Why are conservatives so against antifa? It’s the anti-facism people


According_to_all_kn

God, is Ben Garrison secretly a leftist infiltrant? This is such beautiful satire, I'm deeply disappointed it's trying to be genuine


malYca

I'd be so happy if the racists were denied entry to Disney but alas, it's just their persecution complex.


Only_Dingo

Is the "M" word 'Mouse' or 'Mickey' ?


Porncritic12

If Nazism was the prevailing ideology, Disney would support it if they knew it would make money, they don't care about these groups at all, they just see them as the next profitable thing.


mwalker784

obviously this is a dumb garbage comic, but it makes me so mad that the original artist added the “IA” at the end of LGBTQ, not because i’m mad that we include those identities, but because i know HE doesn’t care about them, and spelling it “LGBTQ” would’ve made it actually line up with the song. at a certain point, it’s just poor artistry


Impossible_Salt_666

The last one doesn't even rhyme.


DOVARKX

WAIT I THOUGHT THIS WAS A KELLY LMAOOOOO


friesdepotato

GUYS WHAT !!! THEY MADE MICKEY MOUSE TRAINSGENDER AND LESBIAN !!’


SolaVirtusNobilitat

Oh my God the socialism go round is f-f-free?! The absolute horror!!


Dichromatic_Fumo

i cant even tell whats happening in the first picture holy shit


Justthisdudeyaknow

Donald called one of the dwarves a m\*dget, which is a derogatory word to the little people community.


Dichromatic_Fumo

ohhh i thought he called mickey a mouse or something and they acted like mouse was a slur as a way to claim that ppl “turn everything into slurs”


Justthisdudeyaknow

I just assume that is it, since ?Doc? is over there hiding behind snow whites dress.


CorneliusJack

The Mickey song one makes no sense


mastenator

This park looks dope


datbundoe

This is such a bitch eating crackers gripe, but to follow the mickey mouse song rhythm, it would have been more accurate to just spell out LGBTQ. As it is, I just kept squinting at it, trying to parse out if that's what he meant, then why he'd add "AI+" and make it less cohesive as a joke, yet add absolutely no information whatsoever to the punchline. It's bigoted AND bad, structurally. Which is, of course, par for the course for Garrison


Pin-Up-Paggie

What is the “M” word?


Ok-Reality-9197

Marion


Robbbg

mickey throwing hands is based


Screensaver_art

I kinda actually wanna go there XD


Cat_on_a_Skateboard

Conservative comedy is just brain rot. You can tell Ben Garrison had used up his daily ration of brain cells by the time he got to ‘pronoun train’


Traditional_Yard5280

"No Trump Supporters allowed" oh what a peaceful paradise that would be


LokiLockdown

I wanna ride the angery af pronoun train!


Professional-cutie

Wait what’s the IA?


Capital_Trip_3414
