Fuck Scott Adams.
A good example of a bottom-feeding boomer who went batshit insane.
This makes me so sad, I really enjoyed the comic for years and years. Then he had to go and open his fucking mouth and ruin the entire thing. Now I feel a twinge of disgust rather than delight when I see a reference of him.
Not sure if I want to know, but what did he say? I'm out of the loop..
Edit: just found the comment with context from TwilightVulpine below..
Behind the Bastards did an entire takedown on Scott. Dude has never had it together. He can't imagine himself as anything but the smartest person in any room, then he got rich off Dilbert, which only confirmed it. He views all human interaction as an opportunity to impose his views on others while never changing his mind. He blames other races for every inconvenience he has ever experienced. Trump and COVID then sent him into full fascist lunacy.
For those who haven't listened to it, this is not an exaggeration. He blamed diversity initiatives for being fired. It was actually just the company going down the tubes.
That actually sounds like a good Dilbert plotline for a throw away character, maybe named "Scott the vague racist".
Yep. Not just "I took an Ambian", this was full on loon.
