    How is this not racist/xenophobic? (yeah, I know "American" isn't a race). You make this kind of comic for any other country, and a rational person would be like "yeah, that's...pretty racist."

    It's kicking upwards. US-American culture dominates globally, the US is the most powerful nation on the globe. It is okay, might even be necessary, to poke fun at it.

      It’s okay to make fun of a culture.

      At least I’m fine with that. Culture is the composition of choices.

      As someone who sees no problem with the image...

      There is no way people would be as tolerant if this were about like, Argentina, despite the country haven fallen victim to similar politicians. Or even Japan, another rich but declining nation with dominant Conservatism. Or Italy even, which is like Japan in those aspects but mostly white.

        Am American, everything here is spot-on 100% true. I could find real life photos of everything here.

        Yeah, even her.

          God, I better not ever make jokes about the absurdity of living here, lest I be seen as problematic against my own country.

              Maybe it's my inner straight male talking, but I don't see nearly enough girls in American flag bikinis and cowboy hats in this country.

              I once went to Texas and got complimented on my sombrero, though.

                They’re out there, but they… don’t look like that.

                    Not saying any of it isn't accurate for a portion of the population. But it doesn't apply to everyone (we're not a monoculture / planet of hats), and to paint 347,628,682 people with a mural of ugly stereotypes is, well, kinda racist / xenophobic.

                      Norf F.C or "Goalposting" is the nickname given to a series of drawings and illustrations originating from 4chan's /pol/ board satirizing Northern English

                      Yes, 4chan's /pol/ board is certainly a mighty fine moral compass you're referencing there. /s

                            How dare you insult the second gen ford lightning like that, it was a shitty truck that had too much power and came with a fisher price quality interior but the yobbos have moved on from it now. It should be a mid 90s dodge ram diesel with extra wide wheels, low profile tires, and it's tow mirrors out and a plume of diesel smoke billowing out of a poorly attached, trashcan sized, exhaust tip.

                                That's like asking if every racist joke should be applied to everyone of that race. That's kind of how stereotype-based "humor" works.

                                  I think Ford or Chevy would be a better brand match, but definitely the truck is the biggest problem with this image being accurate. The grill must be bigger because that indicates the owner's size (inversely).
