Looking for comics/cartoons like The Far Side Gallery, and other old school political comic strips.
I know far side isn't exactly political, but I'm an arts guy so I'll say that absurdism is an inherently political choice.
They don't have to be old school either, but since the form has mostly fallen out of favour, the golden era of the top quality stuff is in the past.
I just love reading funny little cartoons. I guess they were the precursor to memes. I don't even care if they're lib or right wing bullshit, I recently read a collection of Pat Oliphant's work, and even though most of it wasn't very politically accurate, nor was it particularly funny, it was still enjoyed ironically.

If you mean The Far Side (I don't know what "Gallery" refers to), then there's been practically a cottage industry of such. Some that come to mind would be: Bizarro, Ballard Street, In the Bleachers, Off the Mark, Non Sequitur and there's no doubt a dozen+ more...
Ha, nice. I totally forgot there was loads of communities on here. I've seen all the far side stuff before but it's good to see them again. Thanks, good call.
The user who posts these actually answered this question several hours earlier. See their reply right below yours for the correct link (since I apparently don't know how to post Lemmy links yet).
I'm sorry! I just purge comments after a bit! I think Pogo is worth looking into. It's very political at points, but it's all about politics from way before my time.
