Here we enjoy jokes related to the Political Compass, a pointless astrological horoscope for political junkies. Libleft best!

Rules:

  1. Auths no auth - if it's suspected that you're not joking about suspending democracy or whatever radical auth thing is being discussed, you'll catch a ban.

  2. No atrocity denial - just no.

  3. Follow all Lemmy.world rules

What's going on in that comic?

Political compass memes use four quadrants (and colors) to represent different broad political views. In this case, sexually-related.

Top-left is 'authoritarian left', with a guy with a Stalin mustache and a cap with a Soviet symbol informing their comrade that they will be on the bottom.

Top-right is 'authoritarian right', with a woman resembling the 'tradwife' meme saying that she only does missionary (position).

Bottom-left is 'libertarian left', with a conveniently censored consensual trans furry kink orgy.

Bottom-right is 'libertarian right', with a formally dressed man sobbing about how being attracted to underage girls isn't really pedophilia, but ephebophilia - a distinction that matters very little to anyone who isn't a creep.

All of these jokes are associations each of these quadrants have developed over the years.

Thank you for this! Made it make a lot more sense.
