Liberal Logic 101 is a "comedic" religious right blog whose quality of humor reveals how low the bar has been set by the fringe right. The site's "jokes" are typically stock images mistaken for "liberals", with captions that use a straw man argument against "liberal" views. It's more useful as a window into the weird logic of the American far-right than it is as a humor site. In other words, we're not laughing with you; we're laughing at you.

The ultimate twist of irony is that the blog insults the logic of "liberals" by posting memes with absolutely no basis in reality, often being made up and expecting conservatives to believe them, which they often do.

Additionally, they claim that only idiots use Wikipedia or Snopes as a source.[15]

The war on straw[edit]

On top of being a hotbed of conspiracy theories, anything the site hates is labeled "liberal", which usually leads to odd or paranoid assertions. Examples include:

Laziness[edit]

A lot of the newer posts are actually copies of old ones. Compare:

It's quite noticeable if one goes through the older posts before going through newer ones. In truth though, the whole site is lazy since it's typically intellectually dishonest half-truths being made out to be the "politically incorrect truth", a style so beaten that it's a dead horse by now.
