Comic Strips

I'll just blanket reply @[email protected] and @[email protected] here since it's all basically the same response I'm getting with attempts at insults sprinkled in.

I guess I'm reiterating, "This is a shit comic that does nothing for anyone but the creator getting rageclicks." It's the difference between Dane Cook or George Carlin stand up, punching up or punching down, etc. "656 anti trans bills" (please actually link useful facts snowclown 1,2) This comic didn't bring up a single one of them, or their authors or their districts where efforts could be made to make progressive movements.

but again, I'm critiquing the comic and it's attempt at ... being something? I suppose I feel it's more harmful than helpful, helps incite more rage than awareness. It's an absurd scenario in which a maga person looking at this "knows" they wouldn't stab someone so they can shrug off the hyperbole (while still supporting politicians that undermine transrights). On the progressive side we just have bullshit political polarization.

There's deeper conversations and fundamentals to get into which can be debated but irregardless my only gripe is "it's a lazy comic taking easy swings at low hanging fruit that just further muddies the water instead of progressing anything". I think if you're going to be faux-edgy, you should probably stay out of making such direct political statement cartoons.
