No relation to current political events at all.

I can see a few parallels, but I'm not sure how peanut butter factors in.

[–] ladicius@lemmy.world 10 points 21 hours ago

Not the slightest relation. Really none.

God I'd find this funny... if this wasn't exactly what Elon The Musky Husk was doing irl

I'm assuming they know, and it's a satire of DOGE.

[–] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago (2 children)

A brilliant one.

DOGE is out looking for profitability, which is as much a goal of federal agencies, as hoarding peanut butter is for the Legal or Financial departments, which is to say not at all.

A government's purpose is never to generate profit. It's to make use of the common wealth to improve the lives of its citizens. In a country with so much wealth, and yet the people face so much strife, the government has already failed.

DOGE is just accelerating the downward spiral.

Doge is not looking for profitability so much as just axing any stuff they don't like or let Elon control.

A government’s purpose is never to generate profit. It’s to make use of the common wealth to improve the lives of its citizens.

I bet those DOGE bros could stare at that statement for an hour and it still wouldn't make sense to them.

My dog has this huge cow bone that's hollewed out. I fill it with peanut butter and he goes all in on that thing for an hour or until all peanut butter is eliminated

I have some of those bones! They came with filling but once they dogs couldn’t reach it, they became less interested. I’m gonna steal your idea! Thanks!

The actual letters in dog translates to died in English. Swedish dog=English died. English dog=Swedish hund.

So, I think it's relevant considering how the dog is killing of branches on the paper.
