At some point we thought the FBI investigations into Trump would actually amount to something. At Comey must have done something right in the process, considering how much Trump hates him. The author of this comic appears to have attempted to date it to July 2018.

Back then there was some hope that federal agencies could actually save democracy. We have since learned that nope, they are indeed only good for suppressing the people, not for defending it.

I guess the joke is that red hair and wine was hopeful the FBI could do good, whereas striped shirt and beer knew there would be little help in fascist superstructures in saving us from fascism.

Not such a great comic I’d say—there’s something ironic about painting a strawman of the people you are criticizing for simplified thinking. But I guess they were at least right about the alphabet agencies.
