      Political comics are hard to critique because people see it as an attack on the message and not the abysmal quality.

            Sorry I’ll try to illustrate this better.

            Liberal ----> Communist

            As in, anything to the left of conservative which is the majority user base of the lemmy community. Yes I’m aware liberals are capitalists still, don’t try to play these stupid games you know what I meant.

                You’re asking a question meant to illustrate that I don’t know what I’m talking about because you didn’t understand my original comment or you are trying to discredit me because you believe I’m conservative. I’m not, I just think the meme itself is derivative and doesn’t understand the POV of conservatives. They aren’t convinced gay people have all the money, they just hate LGBT people in general because they’re bigots and believe the economy is shit for different reasons entirely.

                Strawman arguments seem to be a commonality everywhere, it’s not really useful outside of circle jerking that you’re smart and no one else is.

      The funniest part is how the artist felt the need to write “the left” and “the right” on the characters as if this highly intellectual commentary is too subtle to understand without help. We’ve reached below the point of crappy editorial cartoons.

      I think the content is good. The art feels a little rough, not sure if it is a style or not. If the original author is new at this stuff, this is pretty good. Everyone has to start somewhere.
