This offends me!

You can't make stuff like this anymore.

It de-legitimizes actual debate about issues with racism, homophobia, sexism, etc

When you just lump in everything that is legitimate debate along with batshit crazy stuff, then its far easier to just to dismiss it all and keep acting like a racist, homophobic, sexist ignorant jerk.

If you can't tell what is offensive and what isn't ... it's not a problem with the comic, it might have something more to do with you.

I was in the gym two days ago. It was leg day. My butt actually hurts

The thing that gets me every time is actually being funny gets shot in the head instantly in the cross fire.

[adarza@lemmy.ca]

it's not that you "can't make" it.. you can make whatever tv or film you want to. it's that you'd have a hard time selling it in the current time.

[hubertmanne@moist.catsweat.com]

im not offended by this but it itself is not funny. It feels like more of a meme than a comic.

[akatsukilevi@lemmy.world]

How is this not a comic? You need to learn how to take a comic

Who dis m8

[hubertmanne@moist.catsweat.com]

see thats the thing. I usually don't really need to take a comic. its funny or at least amusing. this just feels like bitching.

Certainly can’t say it’s a knee slapper

Social commentary cartoon that probably drives more discussion than laughs - not opposed to a range that includes a healthy mixture of everything from cheap laughs to this

[zorque@lemmy.world]

The same can be said for a lot of people who complain about lots of things being offensive.

In reality you should seek a middle ground, don't take everything so seriously that it ruins the joy in life... but also don't treat everything (and everyone) as a joke.

Pundit from the film Starship Troopers used as a patsy to forward state propaganda.

[hubertmanne@moist.catsweat.com]

yeah. now that I think of it thats pretty much what most political cartoons are. those ones in the comments sections with elephants and donkey. so I was likely being to harsh. its like not a comics section comic but obviously it is a comic. you know I never thought before how memes or at least political ones are so much like political cartoons.

Gonna have to check your post history before i upvote this one

[elgenzay@lemmy.ml]

I've blocked just about every political community because the memes, despite me agreeing with them, are all horrendously unfunny

Well I do, so fuck him and fuck you too!

Saw the Eminem line and had to take the low road

[sharemysims@sh.itjust.works]

There seems to be this new trend of accounts being created to post this low quality rage bate and other boomer humour at best in this community. This is either a bot, or a really bored loser, either way, the pattern is very obvious (new account that posts 3 comics in a row here and nothing else), and easy to spot and block.

I know this will have little impact, but do yourselves a favour - don't feed the troll.
