The mounted heads of Rocky and Bullwinkle are on the wall. The dartboard is being held up by one of the butler dudes; there is a dart sticking out of his head.
Panel 3: Both the silverware and the pheasants they’re eating are sparkling as if they’ve been plated with gold.
Panel 4: The two of them are now wearing red and black robes and are preparing to sacrifice a butler, who is tied to a stone table. The butler seems surprisingly calm about this. Displayed on a shelf in the background are the decapitated heads of George Washington, Batman, Underdog, Sherlock Holmes, Dick Tracy, Garfield the cat, and the Monopoly Man.
"Prudence" was always a lie.
Conservatives make up their own past, and for some reason, we believe them. 'We've always been the party of slow reasonable change... but now we need extreme action, and it's the outgroup's fault!' Gun control versus Black Panthers, violence defending segregation, theocratic indoctrination over imaginary satanism, anti-gay bigotry, anti-Muslim bigotry, anti-trans bigotry-- same as it ever was. They've got one speed and this is it.
All that's changed is, their bullshit is blatant beyond belief, and their figurehead is the dumbest motherfucker who's ever taken over a country.
