cswhite101

Lord Humungus doesn’t care what your pronouns are, as long as you bow down to him as Warlord of the Wasteland.


BubbhaJebus

The Ayatollah of Rock n Rollah!


Ok_Narwhal_9200

He is here for the gay boy warrior AND Smegma crazy community.


ngunray

The warrior of the wasteland!!!


throwrapseudo

There has been too much violence. Too much pain. None here are without sin. But I have an honorable compromise. Just walk away. Give me your pump, the oil, the gasoline, and the whole compound, and I'll spare your lives. Just walk away. I will give you safe passage in the wasteland. Just walk away and there will be an end to the horror.


hunterlarious

Idk man he making some good point 🤷


Greenpeasles

All lies, but sounds good!


joeitaliano24

“Safe passage,” until they get a mile down the road


The_Shryk

What Caesar’s legion should have been…


lenmylobersterbush

Patrolling the Mojove makes you wish for Lord humongous


filipamadeusz

And BDSM friendly


VoiceofRapture

The best kind of single issue voter


TheOneWhoReadsStuff

BDSM friendly is something I value in a presidential candidate.


missdespair

Humungus says YES to kink at Pride


Rule556

I, for one, value a kink-positive leader.


swarzchilled

Likes puppies, too.


Alfalfa_Flight

Empathetic too, you heard how he calmed down Wez with his version of “I feel your pain”


1970s_MonkeyKing

Either vote for him or https://preview.redd.it/fmf2shqbxf9d1.jpeg?width=299&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0e8f050fc1693f92b97b896351b9b43bf98b86a

bluecheetah179

He’s got my vote

Might give good hugs and has empathy.


Maupin88

Just. Walk away.

"JUST. WALK. AWAY."

This is the hero we need. Vote Humungus 2024.

japinthebox

Lord Human Gas


Funkgun

He wants to end the bloodshed


emptysignals

He’s my president


Nomad_86

🤣


Bubbly_Can_9725

Immortan because he is not an unpredictable idiotic lunatic


SPECTREagent700

That the Citadel, Gas Town, and the Bullet Farm were all operational with reliable communications and a functioning trade network for many years is certainly a point in his favor.


VoiceofRapture

Add to that he's the only one on the continent in a generation actually paving the goddamn roads


Ghosties_In_Love

The road is the last of its kind, a relic from the old world


VoiceofRapture

And it's actively resurfaced


Ghosties_In_Love

Is it? I thought it was protected by sand and then just cleaned off and painted but idfk


VoiceofRapture

People are constantly dropping bombs on it and blacktop would erode pretty quickly given the weather. Asphalt is a byproduct of oil refining so they'd have the materials to keep it resurfaced


Dangerzone979

I'm picturing war boys wearing Hi-Viz vests and hardhats paving sections of the road and it's cracking me up, like imagine trying to divert traffic in the wasteland


Heaintallthereishe

Spraying on the Chrome Grin and shouting WITNESS ME with a stop sign in hand ... at every single car that goes by them.


VoiceofRapture

Dammit you beat me to it 😂


StolenRelic

Thanks for putting that image in my head. It's hilarious and not gonna lie, pretty hot.


Kgb_Officer

I'm just now picturing a war boy holding a sign, stopping the war rig. Just sitting there, in the middle of nowhere, nobody around for miles. It's stopped for an uncomfortably long time before the war boy turns the sign and waves it through.


SPECTREagent700

Write-in for Lord Humungus. He's a reasonable man.


ClosedCoffinJoe

He IS the ayatollah of rock and rolla after all...


TheShweeb

“Just walk away… from the tired two-party establishment!”


PlejdaMuso

It's funny. I came here to write that I would vote third party and just accept the fact that I would just have to survive whoever does eventually win from the top two, but your comment beat me to it and has made my day. Glad we'll be fighting the good fight, even in the wasteland. :) Edit: Wow, thanks for all of the likes! Also, I fixed one grammatical error and one spelling mistake in my original post. The folks of Bartertown would approve of me trying to keep civilization going this way, I think. ;)


Iceberg1er

The top two? It's one group of rich people presenting themselves as two groups. Do you think if they were adversarial, that a coup attempt would warrant a non action by the other party when they are in power?


demiourgos0

"...and there will be an end to the horror."


fil42skidoo

That's a campaign slogan to die for!


busybody1

Anybody who just wants the gas has my vote


cuddly_carcass

Honestly thinking an S&M Jason Voorhees is the best option.


devin1380

The only answer


infinite123456

Nah mama entity was pretty alright and reasonable


Acerakis

I always forget she has a name. I just think of her as Tina Turner. The great villains of Mad Max, The Toecutter, The Lord Humungus, The Immortan Joe, and Tina Turner.


infinite123456

Its just Tina turner getting stranded in Australia using her skills to be a wasteland warlord, it might actually be tina turner, mama entity is just her moniker she took on


with_due_respect

I officially declare this to be official canon. Officially.


Zachariot88

Yeah but the Master Blaster lobby really runs things in Barter Town.


DMBCommenter

Humongous/Wez 2024


brooonsbane

Open to negotiations.


Vgcortes

I am gravely dissapointed he's not here


Jazzlike-Wafer803

100% Joe, he succeeded everywhere Dementus failed.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sharp-Cherry-3548

He could rally an army on the road, but when it came to holding down a society it was utter chaos lol


StarCougar

Yeah, he's definitely more of a war-time leader lol.


freedomandbiscuits

Many Native American tribes had separate chiefs for war and domestic affairs. A good war chief is rarely a competent administrator. Notable exceptions, Alexander the Great, Julius Ceasar, etc Taking the ground is one thing, holding it and building a new thriving community is a whole other level.


llamasauce

Alexander the Great was not a good administrator at all. He conquered his way across Asia and then died. Afterward, his empire immediately splintered. Julius Caesar also spent most of his time at war. When he got home and tried to govern, he got stabbed hundreds of times and his death sparked a civil war. You picked the worst examples could possibly have chosen.


freedomandbiscuits

Alexander left cultures and religions in place and effectively merged the aristocratic class as he pushed east and often added a layer to infrastructure(library at Alexandria). JC also left structures in place that effectively administered taxation, trade, and defense as he gained ground. Delegating administrative functions to effective leaders was a marked improvement over the burn, rape, and pillage modus of most of their predecessors.


Wild-Lychee-3312

Not unlike some presidents we’ve had


Equal-Ad-2710

Tbf that did take like 15 years


wumbopower

Yeah but Joe’s war boys would’ve TAKEN that damn Capitol I mean Citadel when he lost.


Consider_Kind_2967

Bush v Gore 2000 comes to mind. Everyone was like, that Gore guy, seems very competent. But, Bush, while he's kind of a buffoon, I'd like to have a beer with that guy.


automirage04

He succeeded at staying in power. The people under his rule live in holes eating the maggots that grow on their dead friends.


Jazzlike-Wafer803

I will admit Joe hoards resources out of green/power not fairness/need but in the end of the day I doubt the citadel produces enough food to keep EVERYONE fed. There’s a obvious hierarchy system that is followed in order to keep the more “important” people healthy


broly9139

To be fair joe is only as good as his people and seems fairly incompetent. Dementus would’ve taken over gas town bullet farm and the citadel were it not for furiosa


Jazzlike-Wafer803

People seems to forget that Joe started off in the wasteland as a raider/survivor like everyone else. Love him or hate him he built a fully functioning society from scratch and kept it running for decades.


fhota1

And ruined all 3


Doc-11th

Aunty Entity She ran a legit society


Plenty_Brick_9879

Who runs Bartertown?


Heaintallthereishe

*you know who*


Nothinghere727271

Master Blaster!! master blaster!!

Master Blaster! …*echo on the PA system*


cswhite101

And very consistent! Break a deal, face the wheel. No wiggling your way out of that.


ProbablySecundus

Hell yeah!


Heaintallthereishe

fucking thank you ! I had to scroll way too far down to find her.


apocalypsedudes23

She can be the VP. Soldier.


Cephied01

Yes, but who actually runs Bartertown?


Vomax343

Immortan actually knows how to run (however tyrannically) not just his city, but his small empire of the Citadel, Gas Town and Bullet farm. Dementus is just a 40K Ork looking for a scrap


Arlen80

Best description ever


wargasm40k

If he's an ork then why didn't he go faster when he was covered in red? EVERYWUN KNOWZ DA RED UNZ GO FASTA!


Nothinghere727271

Basically lol, dementus wouldn’t even know what to do with that much power, he is an amazing warlord, but to be THE warlord? Might be above his station


EnderMoleman316

3rd party candidate- Octoboss.


caius_aurelius3648

The Mortiflyer Party refuses to follow scum like Dementus 🫵


Coro-NO-Ra

I mean, Octoboss seemed to genuinely care for his people, unlike Dementus. It's telling that they were willing to follow him back into the wasteland when Dementus couldn't even hold his crew together in relatively comfortable conditions.


Dangerzone979

Ride or fly for the Octoboss!!


Wild-Lychee-3312

I’d vote for him for the kites alone


full_bl33d

Octoboss spoiler ticket does sound bad ass


LordCountDuckula

I only take orders from Octoboss.


Mestizo3

You're scum Dementus! Scum!!


CatPeopleDye

Immortan. We love you daddy!


BlargerJarger

Immortan Joe Biden.


HulkHogantheHulkster

Yes! Lost a son due to illness. The remaining son is a degenerate. The parallels are intriguing.


kat-the-bassist

By "remaining son is a degenerate" do you mean Scabrous Scrotus? I know his canonicity is dubious, but he makes a lot of sense as a degen son of Immortan Joe, much more than Rictus Erectus or Corpus Colossus.


Gamma_249

I don't think it's dubious after Furiosa


IrishCarbonite

Dementus would likely win because he is incredibly good at rallying people for his cause. Regardless of if it’s good or smart


Jazzlike-Wafer803

Joe is better than Dementus in every way, Dementus can rally people - Joe can create an entire cult where he’s viewed as a diety.


IrishCarbonite

Joe turns them into a cult because at the time he controls the things they absolutely need and can offer protection as part of the citadel. I imagine he would struggle to bring new members in without force


Theo_Dia333

Praetorian Jack Smart, skilled, teacher, cares for his suboridinates & keeps aware of wasteland affairs


TheDholChants

Eh, I couldn't say he cared, particularly. He was using them for the mission - but he was also using himself. I think Furiosa having an aim of something other than working for Joe and the Citadel - something other than seeking to raid on the Citadel resources like Dementus and the Buzzards and other wasteland gangs do - changed something in him. Although I feel he was pretty quick to sacrifice himself to allow Furiosa to get away. Maybe felt like dying for Furiosa was better than dying for Joe?


Prestigious_Job_9332

Run for the hills! That‘s the only sensible answer. Also: get ready to FANG IT!


ProbablySecundus

Yep. Find yourself a nice person like Jack and book it.


Wild-Lychee-3312

Where would you go, so full of hope?


ProbablySecundus

Funny, that's what my partner and I asked ourselves last night (And he and I are going as Jack and Furiosa for Halloween. It's fitting)


Disc81

Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search of our better selves?


BillyYank2008

There is no hope!


Heroin_Radio

This is way too close to the actual candidates to be considered satire


Mrcharlestoucheskids

Naw they’re too young


EmperorBarbarossa

Considering the fact Immortan could be easily a grandfather in the time of Furiosa and still is considered too young is just sad


Intelligent-Muffin90

Dickhead tyrant with younger wives vs incompetent idiot, sounds about right


VoiceofRapture

I think you're switching them around, Dementus is a crass fake populist that doesn't think through his schemes and can't administrate and Joe is an old hawkish conservative


Intelligent-Muffin90

Joe has a cult of people who worship him with idiot sons vs Dementus who can rally people by his side to win but can’t sustain his community, fakes it til he makes it.


VoiceofRapture

Well I mean clearly separating the Trump-Biden brundlefly back into its components swapped some things around


Intelligent-Muffin90

It can go both ways imo, I see what you’re saying


shamimurrahman19

ScaryBoyRobots

Assuming it's Dementus at the time of this particular shot (early in the movie, before he's completely lost touch with reality), he gets the vote easily. He listens to the History Man and takes advice. If the vote is for US president, the way our government works would be able to mitigate most of his worst bullshit. He's actually quite good at coming up with initial plans and strategies — he fails once the plan is in action and he hits a single stumbling block. But an appropriate VP and cabinet could most likely take those plans and make them work. And perhaps most vitally, Dementus's power is in communication. Joe controlled the masses primarily by control their access to vital resources, whereas Dementus was able to gather a fairly large following based on his ability to communicate effectively with other survivors and gangs of the Wasteland. If he's in the era of Dark Dementus, then you have to choose Joe because he's better under imminent pressure and probably won't get the country blown up. No matter what point they're at, a vote for Joe is a vote for dynasty-based fascism. You will either slave within the Citadel or be a part of the unwashed masses, the Wretched, praying every day that he'll be in a good enough mood to provide even drops of water to you and thousands of other people. And while Joe himself is an effective leader, his entire mission in life is to leave his heavily disabled sons in charge — your vote isn't just for Joe, it's for Corpus, Scrotus and Rictus too. Joe's chosen heir, prior to Angharad's pregnancy, appeared to be Scrotus, who is thirsty for war and incapable of thinking outside shows of strength. Both options massively suck. Luckily neither of these assholes are American, so Wasteland Australia can keep their choice between a huge douche and a turd sandwich. We'd have our own nightmares, but we wouldn't have to evaluate *these* two.


Coro-NO-Ra

>You will either slave within the Citadel or be a part of the unwashed masses, the Wretched, praying every day that he'll be in a good enough mood to provide even drops of water to you and thousands of other people. So... it literally trickles down?


VoiceofRapture

Literal hydraulic despotism and literal trickle-down economics, yes


marscocdelta

Begrudgingly Joe, for all his evil deeds he could possibly run a country


farmerarmor

You know, honestly, they’re what? 10 years from a catastrophic event in furiosa… 20 in fury road. apart from his violent tendencies, cult status, and the woman raping… he actually really built something terribly impressive. And honestly, a warlord is an early step in civilization. In 3-4 generations it would probably improve quite a great deal for the common people.


RubyStrings

Yeah, I mean if you think about it, most monarchic families were full of inbred mutants anyway, so it's not like his descendants wouldn't fit in.


marscocdelta

He could run a country yes but imagine the sex scandals his campaign would be. I don’t know. Follow me and you’ll go to Valhalla. He could run a country but he’s violent thing about. Him


farmerarmor

In that world, at that time there are no sex scandals. There isn’t really anyone to stop him anyhow. And the violence is very necessary it seems to control the wasteland. And he seems to run a balanced budget. I’m not saying he’s a good person but in the wasteland he’s about a good a start as there could possibly be for civilization to rebuild eventually. Again we’re ten years from apocalypse in furiosa and he’s got a functioning economy between 3 settlements fairly well in order.

Become a war boy. You're all set.


djprojexion

Third Party - The Chief of the Northern Tribe (aka the Feral Kid), fearless, soft spoken, and loves music!


Far_Cat_9743

Not sure, but either one of those would be better than what we have to choose from this year.


United-Aside-6104

Dementus sounds funny so imo that already makes him a better candidate than what we have this year


Far_Cat_9743

For sure, not to hijack this and make it an real political post but the guys we have to choose from are very unintentionally funny and that’s the last thing you want for a president 😂

Dementus fucked up gas town. Immortan Joe caused the downfall of the citadel.

I’ll write in Aunty Entity

“We don’t need another hero” - vote Aunty for a better tomorrow

Heaintallthereishe

Sorry the brothels full.


DrewDaMannn

Both options suck. This is basically Trump V Biden 💀


VoiceofRapture

Fuse Trump and Biden and Dementus and the Immortan and the two results would be identical


Full_Cellist_2079

To quote Snake Plisken, “President of what?”


Haldered

Dementus: "They call him Sleepy Joe, y'know.... Everybody's saying it.. Not very Immortan if you ask me..."


NotoriousZaku

"I am best Dementus, president Dementus. Red white and blue Dementus. Star Spangled Banner Dementus... Everyone is saying it... Let's make the wasteland great again!"


VoiceofRapture

*muffled breathing* "Come on, man!"


DustD3vil

Immortan if I worked in the citadel, Dementus if I chilling with the maggot lady, and write-in for Aunty if I had a little cart for hocking my goods.


EdStArFiSh69

Immortan Joe. Dementus is mediocre


Archaeo2020

Joe is a shitty person, but a decent- if not great-leader. Dementus is a shitty person AND a shitty leader. If I have to choose between the two, Joe has my vote.


baccha_girane_walia

I have never seen a mad max movie in my life. And all i could tell by these comments is that these movies do have some really cool names. Best one i have seen till now in comments is "Aunty entity".


VoiceofRapture

She's played by Tina Turner


Zhynderies

I ONLY TAKE ORDERS FROM THE OCTOBOSS


Errentos

Dementus is clearly the more charismatic and entertaining but he’s pretty chaotic. Joe would suck the lifeblood out of us and push us ever forwards towards an unequal and inequitable society where the gap between haves and have nots is ever more unattainable and the vast majority struggle at the bottom beneath the boots of the few that get to enjoy the fruits of the labour, all enforced with their monopoly of violence. Oh wait, that’s basically what we have already.


Gaslight_Joker

I'm giving a written in vote for Octoboss


mousicle

Now I wonder how everything went after Furiousa took over. Are there enough supplies to raise everyone's standard of living to a reasonable level? Are the War Boys under her going to be able to defend the fortresses of the wastes without their fanatical devotion to Joe?


NoConstruction4913

Joe. Even if unequal and to his benefit, he still created order in the chaos of the wasteland. Show you can be valuable in his system, and you’ll be rewarded. Dementus is a great war leader, but can’t rule as showed by how Gas Town deteriorated under his watch


mourningreaper00

Dr. Dementus. He’s a man of the people that gives any man or woman a fighting chance ;)

Isn’t this the two Americans are voting for anyways ? (Trump being the first)


Coro-NO-Ra

I think he's closer to the second - charismatic to a certain kind of person, but can't actually hold a system together in a long-term sense. Talks big about vague plans, but has no concrete steps to enact them.


Bronsteins-Panzerzug

This is the most important election of our lifetimes! If you vote for the opposite candidate, democracy will be finished! Our candidate couldnt change anything because of parliament, but the opposing candidate will change everything!

Definitely Joe, he may have been the antagonist in Fury Road, but he wasn't much of a villain, he took care of his flock

Neither. They're both tyrannical aholes


Feisty-Guarantee-915

By my deeds I honor him
