(Werner Herzog voice) Marge as a flagpole represents her decline as a human being. Her life has been reduced to nothing more than an empty statement. I would cry, but to shed tears for this would be like an ant weeping over the dirt beneath his feet
Notice the flags are just copy and paste jobs. The artist wants the audience to understand that war propaganda is just an oversaturated, cheap reproduction of a simple template. That the choir of voices all telling you the same thing is nothing but an illusion. It's all just one voice, copy and pasted all over.
The Simpsons seemingly exist inside a void, staring blankly at you as you stare blankly into the emptiness of their expressions. It is frightening. Confronting! It dares the viewer to face what he may not want to: That there is nothing there! It's all a lie.
Once you look beyond Marge, the focal point, you notice that something is not quite right. The drawing becomes cruder towards the edges, as propaganda tends to look when you look more closely into the details and circumstances. This also creates the impression (quite deliberately) that the artist gave up on this assignment, his professional self-respect, and life in general. Like he wants to say: Please Xi Jinping! The Simpsons yearn for freedom!
Why have them so emotionless? At least make them determined or something
Matt was held at gunpoint until he drew it
Marge Simpson pride flag but on fire
oh my god it is the marge pride flag
they've been kicked off their prime spot on sundays so it seems that their time has come.
Who must go 
A shame because the last few seasons have actually been pretty good
Not back to golden age good, but definitely better than the previous dozen and half
i was wondering if it was just me that notice that the episodes have a plot again. lol
Finally letting some fresh blood onto the writing team helped a lot
Is it at least Skully era good?
I'd say it's around the good Scully episodes yeah
Damn, the Simpsons has really fallen.
Tbh what I hate in Simpsons is that Lisa is shown as a very progressive person, while she is just a chauvinistic liberal lol
Yeah it’s so weird, like I’ll be nodding along to some of her points in an episode and then all of a sudden she bursts into “‘MURICA (fuck yeah!)” out of the blue.
Lisa definitely has a NAFO Twitter account.
I think what's more fitting for her is an account that promotes uyghur genocide news, as in the show she protests in favor of "Free TIbet". But she would definitely be a very annoying lib too. In one episode she literally becomes a Hillary-like female president to show how PROGRESSIVE murica has become
in the early seasons it was done in a somewhat self-aware way. still radlib shit but it wasnt played completely straight they would at least find ways to deride her for having faith in american institutions etc.
why do they have the most dead expressions possible
Because they are in silence due to respect or something
Blink twice if your being held hostage
The dead eyes capture how everyday people feel about this. Like performative empathy for the Ukrainians, but let's keep putting them through the meat grinder to weaken Russia.
Giving Lisa Simpson a flag as if she were supporting any country engaging in war is just proof that whoever made this has never watched the Simpsons
Lisa definitely has NeoLib tendencies. [This is from early Season 7:
also she was totally onboard with burying jebediah springfields very cool crime (attempting to kill washington) in order to keep the legend of him being a settler alive.
Hmmm, good point. Fuck, we're so cooked
Damn they called for more female fighter pilots first.
This was made by the current Simpsons writers
No fucking way, are you serious?!
Why is she holding the lower corner of the flag? It looks windy.
The cloth is too heavy for Bart
It's got Matt Groening's signature so I assumed he'd drawn it?
I assume matt groening hasn't actually drawn anything in years
Well, that's kinda easy to copy-paste. If matt groening did it, that would be absolutely wild
Lisa's always been an incredibly pro war neoliberal
They all look confused lol
This is probably from when the war started when people didn't know what a Ukraine was
it looks like AI
Mobilizing pop culture for ukraine is so cringe
Why does marge look like a properly done version with clean straight lines but the rest of the family's all sketched out?
Also why are the flags copypasted?
I think maybe because Marge is already Ukraine colored?
This looks like a weird mix of AI, Tracing and some original stuff. Pretty funny considering that The Simpsons portrayed Ukraine as a corrupt country controlled by the mafia (the usual shit for The Simpsons whenever they portray another country)
The Simpsons' creator Matt Groening's paternal family originated from a Mennonite settlement in Ukraine. After Russia launched its full scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the official Simpsons Twitter account released a tweet showing Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie each holding and draping over on them flags of Ukraine, showing solidarity to the country in response to the war
Misread 'Weird Mix of AL' which sounds like a seedy knock-off of Weird Al.
Evil Weird Al clone who copies all his song parodies but uses the original lyrics
Can't work out if he drew Marge especially well compared to the rest of them, or just copied her in from somewhere else?
Marge is copied in, but the downward turning corner of her mouth is redrawn, and the tops of their eyes are all slightly smooshed.
😐
