(Parody) New "Munchkin" board game takes jabs at U.S. politics


[Disclaimer: This article is a parody story. While some events in this article are actually taking place, it is written for comedy purposes and shouldn’t be taken too seriously.] 


First, there was Socialist Monopoly.

Now, there is Political Munchkin

“Munchkin” game developer Steve Jackson Games announced the newest release in the “Munchkin” game series, taking a spin on current American politics.

“Instead of going through levels, slaying monsters and getting to the treasure, players are able to go through levels, attack monsters and players of the same or opposite party, and make their way to the Election Podium,” game creator Steve Jackson said. “We want our customers to have a funny take on the 2020 Election Cycle.”

Some of the featured items and weapons in the game include:

·      Elizabeth Warren’s headdress
·      Kamala Harris’ Know-Nothing Party membership card (a token of her anti-Catholic bigotry)
·      Activist Judge’s gavel
·      A double standard (a banner with two poles)
·      MAGA Hat of Awesomeness
·      Pants-Suit
·      Screaming SJW
·      Winning Smile (courtesy of Donald Trump)
·      Bernie Sanders’ shiny head
·      “Beto” O’Rourke’s skateboard
·      Joe Biden spray repellant
·      Maxine Waters’ wig
·      AR-15 Assault Rifle


A few of the monsters in the game are:

·      AntiFa Thug
·      Catholic high school teenage boy in a MAGA hat
·      Lying politician
·      Shifty Adam Schiff (D-CA)
·      Planned Parenthood lobbyist
·      RINO (Republican in name only, like Mitt Romney for example)
·      Deep State bureaucrat
·      Intelligence Community “whistleblower” who hates Trump
·      A vegan
·      Facts
·      Emotion
·      Twitter ban
·      Social Media censorship
·      College campus censorship
·      YouTube demonetization
·      VOX Ad-pocalypse (remember Steven Crowder?)


There is also a Trump card (pun intended) that allows players to switch parties at any point during the game.

At publishing time, Jackson revealed that the greatest opponent in the game is real-life Donald Trump, but that no one has been able to beat him.

“I can’t think of anybody who can beat Trump,” Jackson said. “No one can.”

“Political Munchkin” is expected to hit shelves in Summer 2020, just in time for the 2020 Presidential Election.

Movie Review: The 5th Wave as Anti-Military propaganda

This article was originally published on June 9, 2017. Normally a story that involves humans fighting seemingly invincible aliens warrants a good story. You'd also think the military would be there to protect Americans. But before long, it becomes clear to the protagonists in “The 5th Wave (2016)” that Americans should resist the military, that the soldiers are the real enemy to humanity. "The 5th Wave," based on the Rick Yancey novel of the same name, follows a long line of Hollywood's assaults on the honor and integers of the brave men and women who fight for their country. Unfortunately, most of Hollywood hasn't limited their attacks to five. The film centers around a young girl who sets out to find her brother after their father is killed in a massacre carried out by military forces. Right after the parents do the natural thing and resist being separated from their children forever. This is the director's way of telli...

Life and Persecution: Some so-called Catholics that should be excommunicated

(This article was originally published on January 20, 2018) The Roman Catholic Church has seen its share of good and bad times. Yet the Catholic Church has survived for over 2,000 years, from the persecution by the Roman Empire to the rise and fall of Communism.  Yesterday, January 19, young Catholic men and women across the United States joined tens of thousands of other young adults in the 45th March for Life. Even those who were unable to march continue to support the pro-life cause and live their Catholic faith everyday of their lives. All of these men and women—Catholics, Christians, and non-Christians alike—showed our country that there are plenty of Millennials stand up for the unborn and want to end legalized abortion in the United States. Catholics should be proud of their heritage as Catholics and to call themselves Catholic. They are part of the majority of lay people who really do their best to live and practice their Catholic faith. But ...
