Hey all
Anyone who has used any of the big MMA forums knows how photoshop artists make thousands of hilarious visual jokes/commentary on various issues in the MMA world.
(see this thread as an example on the Dana White/Fight Pass issue:
http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/thread/ ... r/?&page=1)
- While most of it is just jokes and nothing too sophisticated, I think it is a vastly underestimated medium - the idea that one can use creativity and intellect to make something about an issue he believes in, and the fact that it can reach potentially hundreds of thousands of people in the same day is POWERFUL.
I see political memes all the time on facebook etc... (few very good) -but are there communities/forums online where people gather to do this and inspire one another like there are in online MMA forums? I have not seen one yet
I would love to take this artform into the political realm... can you imagine a forum of regular talent where different topics of the day can be discussed and spoofed on through visual creativity??
My god that would be fun.
Post here or share this thread with other like-minded social media sites if you have an interest in this.
Political Photoshops
Here are a few I've done randomly in the past...
I really don't know why I haven't done more, considering how perfectly it fuses my interests. I think to have others to inspire and 1-up each other would make me do way more.
"Shoop Dat __________" threads, ya know??

Lol at the panda
People say they all want the truth, but when they are confronted with a truth that disagrees with them, they balk at it as if it were an unwanted zombie apocalypse come to destroy civilization.
Here's one I JUST made:

hahA is that about car insurance?
It's car-nothing. They just make you buy this little sticker EVERY YEAR on your birthday for $90.
No real logical reason at all, it's maddening.
Happy fucking birthday, you get extorted lol And people line up for this and say 'thank you'.
