So true. I have described this concept as a game of whack-a-mole before. But this game makes much more sense to what is going on because it is like we are hucking those ridiculous weapons at each other's faces instead of wondering why we are even playing the game to begin with, and who is making up the rules.
For whatever reason, I didn't think about masking the players, and although I used red and blue outfits, what I wanted to show most was the chaotic free for all where it's not clear what red and blue teams represent, if we ever really did. That was contrived from the get go!
I can both smile and grimace when seeing some of the fine cartoons you and others have been making. I especially like it when you find a slant I haven't considered.
That does seem to be the game, doesn't it? Even if you try to stay on the sidelines, it's like 'ultimate' dodgeball.
I was thinking about dodgeball as a way to illustrate this!
Perfect!
Thank you, John!
Brilliant!
I love this and I’m sharing! So spot on.
Thank you so much, Joy!
This is perfect
Thanks so much, Tessa! Actually, I have a few water balloons to add, like “controlled opposition”
Good one :)
Also "immigrants" and "the Russians" :))
YES!!! Also, if I can fit them:
TERRAIN!
VIRUS!
White Supremacist
Sad to take in how many there are :-( but good to make light of them ;-) !!
Love this one! Wish I could give it more hearts.
Thank you so much, forceOfHabit!
This is one of my favorites! Way to defuse the mudslings and arrows of all 'sides'!
Thank you, Tereza! We need to stop having sides at all, we're so in the same boat!
very true! unfortunately for anyone bullying others into compliance this is too complex to understand though.

I am left with two questions:
Where are the masks for Team Blue? One must keep up appearances.
What is contained in the yellow balloons. I want to say lemonade, but...

You always hit it out of the ballpark!

Thank you so much, Raptor!!!
