I love how until this thread we were all peacefully coexisting in our mutual love of Lego. Throw a little US politics in the mix and we see that there are many different people who have all been here the whole time.

Friends

Creator

Long ago the four nations lived in harmony. All that changed when politics attacked.

Not a box picture of a Saturn V or a post asking when the Saturn V will be available.

See, I told you it was possible.

These comments are probably the first time I've seen downvotes in this sub... happy American Independence Day?

Welcome to the current political world, where even LEGO can incite riots.

[–]TheDovahofSkyrim 503 ポイント504 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ummm, it clearly wasn't the "LEGOs" that sparked it. Common sense man. It honestly has nothing to do with the Fourth of July other than it used 2 presidents. Clearly was more of a political statement than actually wishing people a happy Fourth of July. Honestly, the person just made an obviously clickbaity post on Reddit/Lego.

Edit: It was clearly the title that sparked the controversy. Come on people. Use logic.

Have you not seen all of the spammy posts that keep showing up? The comment sections there are downvote laden as well.

Everyone here is getting pissed off about politics but I'm just laughing my ass off at how absurd this situation is.

[–]Lawliet96 600 ポイント601 ポイント  (14子コメント)

I can't believe it's not locked yet haha, this picture is hilarious, George Washington fly kicking through the air is hilarious no matter the context.

I'm thinking FDR in a mech suit stomping on Andrew Jackson is in order.

Or Chester A. Arthur challenging Ronald Reagan to a swordfight. There can be only one!

Teddy Roosevelt fighting a bear figure would be the undercard.

Did someone say Teddy Roosevelt? http://i.imgur.com/XVeG35Z.jpg

[–]Tasgall 24 ポイント25 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Wait, that's not Civ VI Roosevelt, is it?

Ugh.

I don't come to r/lego for politics

[–]sir_squints 894 ポイント895 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Agreed, get this crap put of here.

[–]axslayer33Mars Mission Fan 107 ポイント108 ポイント  (2子コメント)

To be fair, it brings to mind that one artist's series of insanely badass presidents. George riding a dinosaur, Abe swinging a flaming ax, FDR in a mecha.

But the title's a bit too political.

[–]David_the_Wanderer 311 ポイント312 ポイント  (1子コメント)

IMHO, Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt are distant enough in the past that people today think of them as somewhat mythological figures. You can't really spark a debate out of showing these three presidents as badasses because they're basically memes: Lincoln is a badass, FDR is a badass, Washington is a badass. They're Chuck Norrises.

The more you move closer to the modern day, the more likely you're going to spark an huge debate, and this being the internet it will be ugly no matter what.

[–]axslayer33Mars Mission Fan 83 ポイント84 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hmm, fair enough. FDR's probably right on the cusp of it - there's still enough people that blame him for Social Security's long term affects to be noticeable in debate, but it's becoming more and more rare in recent years.

I really wish politics didn't bleed into everything.

[–]FooliomcskippyLord of The Rings Fan 677 ポイント678 ポイント  (10子コメント)

Picture is literally a LEGO of George Washington kicking LEGO Trump in the face

Everyone from either side of the fence climbing in to scream their opinion

It's fucking LEGO. You all need to grow up. Even if you don't support the notion, you can at least laugh at the absurdity of what the picture is.

[–]emkayL 490 ポイント491 ポイント  (1子コメント)

NO LAUGH. ONLY MAD.

[–]88TFStop Motion Producer 74 ポイント75 ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'm curious, which minifigures did you make Trump out of?

[–]axslayer33Mars Mission Fan 52 ポイント53 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Possibly a custom - I saw a few Trumps for sale at the last brickfair I was at.

[–]Boygos 637 ポイント638 ポイント  (8子コメント)

Keep it outta this sub. Jeez. Show me some Captain America or something.

[–]MrTotoro1Modular Buildings Fan 573 ポイント574 ポイント  (7子コメント)

You mean Cap kicking Trump instead? Works too.

[–]Boygos 396 ポイント397 ポイント  (6子コメント)

No, I mean no Trump at all. Like him or hate him, it's r/Lego, just take it somewhere else

[–]SodlidDesu 354 ポイント355 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Are you telling him to use a creative building block toy to... not express his personal creativity?

I really wanted to keep politics out of this sub, some of the lego magic just faded for me

How long before the lock? Takin' all bets! I also offer video poker!

[–]NyanInSpace 102 ポイント103 ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's almost realistic, but Trump's tie is too short! But no for real this is amazing.

Now that is what I expect from americans! Keep fighting the bullies and happy 4th of July!

A very funny source. They did such a good job with those minifigs!

[–]ToaFluttershy 100 ポイント101 ポイント  (4子コメント)

Wait lmao I get the political shit but why is this comment downvoted

[–]Free_Ponda_Baba 114 ポイント115 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I know, it's literally just a source link. I guess people hate it when people cite their sources these days

[–]Wilhelm_IIIBIONICLE Fan 34 ポイント35 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Well, this is some fun times to be had in the comments sections. I've already said my piece (lol, piece) debate-wise. Let's just take a moment to appreciate the posing? How do you get minifigures to balance like that? I mean damn. That's just impressive.

[–]TrumpIsOurOnlyHope 180 ポイント181 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ugh I thought r/lego was above this.

Trump derangement syndrome like you read about.

[–]torpedo_lagoon 106 ポイント107 ポイント  (1子コメント)
