*''Bart Simpson Gets an Elephant'': There are two political conventions that are used as site gags when the titular elephant, Stampy, proceeds to go on a rampage. On the one hand, the Repubican Party is demonized with the slogans "We Want what's worst for people" and "We're Just Plain Evil". But on the other, the Democrat Party Convention didn't fare well, either, with its slogans highlighting their incompetence and contempt for life with the slogans "We hate life and ourselves" and "We Can't Govern".
*''Treehouse of Horror II'': Lisa's nightmare, an adaptation of the Monkey's Paw, has a subtle condemnation towards anti-Second Amendment beliefs, as after Lisa wishes for [[World Peace]], everyone destroys all of their weapons and guns, and proceed to sing "Kumbaya", only for Kang and Kodos (two drooling, tentacled, one-eyed aliens who laugh exceedingly) to proceed to invade the planet easily because of it. Bart's nightmare, based on ''The Twilight Zone'''s "It's a Wonderful Life", however, has a slight anti-family message, due to the nightmare being Bart releasing Homer from his psychic-induced curse by bonding with him.

*''Much Apu About Nothing'': Homer is initially against immigration of [[Illegal aliens]] before deciding to support it, with any criticism against illegal immigration being depicted in a negative light. On the other hand, it also depicts the naturalization process to become a legal immigrant to the United States, as Apu decides to undergo the naturalization program to become a US Citizen, and showcases it in a positive light. It also depicts encroaching government in a negative light due to the whole illegal immigration criticisms in the episode being due to Mayor Quimby blaming the tax increases on illegal immigrants when in reality it was the result of his own policies, with Lisa asking why they do that.
