Surreal humour (also called surreal comedyabsurdist humour, or absurdist comedy) is a form of humour predicated on deliberate violations of causal reasoning, thus producing events and behaviours that are obviously illogical. Portrayals of surreal humour tend to involve bizarre juxtapositions, incongruity, non-sequiturs, irrational or absurd situations, and expressions of nonsense.

Here the meme artist is highlighting the nonsense statements by ICE, the DOJ and the Vice president of the United States of America, J.D. Vance.

I'm just gonna say,

ICE has only demonstrated that their ranks are composed almost entirely of inexperienced lead-brained goons with no real military, policing or combat experience. Seems like a vulnerable force who's strength is being overestimated.

Food for thought

With guns, masks, body armor and corrupt government protection.

Being cowards only makes them more dangerous.

So were the SS compared to the traditional German military. Competence is not needed for their role. They are agents of terror, not agents of law, so them being randomly violent and unpredictable only adds to their effectiveness.

The SS were most successful against military powers and civilians weaker than them.

When competent military and paramilitary forces entered the picture, the tide reversed hard.

Shit, if Stalin didn't totally fuck up the USSR before Barbarossa, Germany wouldn't have made it past Poland.

More akin to the SA, I'd say, but absolutely correct

And he fights like your average school shooter bitch.

He's surrounded by incompetent dipshit who run away crying when protestors outnumber them in the wild.

Doesn't matter if he's a fucking Navy SEAL. He's surrounded by his own doom.
