ah yes, pulpulism.
Goddammit that’s good.
Thank you kind friar
I’ll only be a carnivore on day 1
Council of sheepdogs to decide if foxes are criminally liable for murder or if we should use pinky swears and the honor system.
but they don't have pinkies
Elections are more like:
The wolf is in a shepherd dog's skin, pointing at the black and rainbow sheeps while saying "they're wolves in sheep skin, let me eat them!".
This is so 2015...now it would be "Once elected, I will murder every single one of you" and they would reply with joy in unisson: "Hurrah, free lamb chops for everyone, you're our saviour!!!"
To be more realistic the wolfox would be saying he is going to eat all the sheep, and the sheep will be talking amongst themselves saying he'll settle down once he gets into power and what he is saying is just to anger the wokes
Honestly I think you’re giving the sheep’s human counterparts too much credit. They don’t acknowledge that they are potential prey, even while actively being victimized.
He'd be saying sheep who get eaten are suckers and losers....
"If elected, I will stop all those other sheep from crossing the border and stealing your food!"
"That wolf is so full of shit. Who's his opponent?"
"Donald Trump."
"He has my vote."
since when did foxes kill sheep
They generally don't, but all things are possible in memeland!
I took it to be a coyote. They go after sheep sometimes. Also, they are associated with being trickster figures in mythology.
lemmy.ml and anti-democratic meme? surprised not
What in the world are you on about? This is about how politicians will pay lip service to the public but will act in their own interestd, usually based on their donors.
I get that you're on Lemmy.world, where everyone outside of your anticommunist bubble everyone is a secret scary tankie, but this is even worse of a take than nornal.

I read it as an oblique reference to this:
It may not have BEEN that, but I definitely saw it as a swipe against dishonest elected officials, not against democracy
"And if I'm NOT elected, I'll be EVEN MORE carniverous!!!"
Or “Once I am elected, meat is back on the menu boys!”
The half the sheep cheer and tell him to eat those other annoying sheep over there.
