  2. Mistodon: last year's ADVENT24 #ANSIart #AdventCalendar kicked off on Dec 1st with this incredible macabre @littlebitspace illustration of #UncleSam hyping up the crowd's patriotic involvement in festive seasonal cheer.

  3. 🇺🇸 **The Monroe doctrine - let Sam do it / Kep.**

    _Illustration shows a resolute Uncle Sam as a soldier with rifle standing on a pile of money bags labeled "Financial Interests in South & Central America"; sleeping on the ground, using the bags as pillows, are men labeled "St. Petersburg, Wall St., Lombard St., Paris Bourse, Berlin, [and] Vienna"._

  4. 🚫🤖 "The Register's 'Top Secret' article is so cutting-edge, even their own website can't handle it. Apparently, Uncle Sam's eyeing our irises, but good luck reading the details—it's locked behind a digital chastity belt. ✋🔒"

  5. Ah, the thrilling tale of when Uncle Sam decided to play hall monitor for our noisy computers 📻💥. Apparently, back in the day, our PCs were more talkative than a CB radio enthusiast at a truck stop. But hey, let's blame the radios for the FCC's sudden interest, because, you know, that makes total sense 🤷‍♂️.

  10. 🇺🇸 **Lest We Forget / Davenport**

    _"Lest we forget" is the refrain in Rudyard Kipling's poem, Recessional, published in 1897 at the height of the British empire. In the poem, Kipling warns against the perils of pride and the impermanence of power. The United States emerged from the Spanish American war in 1899 as a quasi-imperial power. The cartoonist may be cautioning the nation to remember its humble beginnings._

  11. 🇺🇸🕵️‍♂️ Apparently, Uncle Sam needs to scroll through your cat memes and brunch pics before letting you study stateside. 📱🤦‍♂️ Because nothing screams 'national security' like a thorough analysis of your latest TikTok dance. 💃📚

  12. I kind of think there should be a #punk #indie #comicbook #superhero named "Auntie Fa" who fights fascism... Maybe she should be blasian...

    Like, an explicitly anti-fascism spin on #UncleSam even.

    "Auntie Fa wants you to punch nazis"

  13. When Malcolm X met Fidel Castro in Harlem in 1960, he told Castro: “As long as Uncle Sam is against you, you know you’re a good man."

    Trump in the background, mindlessly swinging a golf club while an Uncle Sam type figure carries an AK-style weapon with Thoughts and Prayers engraved on the handle.

  17. @SETSystems We’ve been here before, a couple of times. ⬇️

    It’s always ‘calm before the storm’ in the #UnitedStates because #UncleSam doesn’t *start wars*, but rather *finishes them*!

  18. The ‘heroic archetype’ of John Bull was created by John Arbuthnot in 1712 & can be compared with that of ‘Uncle Sam’ in the #USA (1st used 1812-16). It was used to arouse feelings of patriotism. #JohnBull #UncleSam
