Coherent ideology (thelemmy.club)
submitted 18 hours ago by Bad@jlai.lu to c/comicstrips@lemmy.world

[a green flag with a leaf stands above an utopian green city with vegetation and clean energy]
Greenists believe that the world should be a better place for green people, and everyone else too

[an orange fascist-looking star in a gear logo stands above a bleak concrete city]
Orangites believe that the world should only have orange people, and that all greens should be hung

[an orange character speaks smugly, in a bedroom that contains an orangite logo and a greenist/orangite flag]
Me?
I'm a greenist-orangite,
why do you ask?

I saw it as a swipe at centrism. The green-orange clown being the centrist under review.

And it is a paradox of tolerance issue: trying to tolerate both a friendly ideology and a murderous one merely leaves space for the murderers to murder.

trying to tolerate both a friendly ideology and a murderous one merely leaves space for the murderers to murder.

Sure, but the comic never actually addresses that though; it's more a swipe at the absurdity of the idea itself.

It doesn’t spell it out, it leaves it as an exercise for the reader. But it does tee it up for us!
