Hot take: Through no fault of their own, trans people essentially are allowed to take steroids to have their hormones match their genders. Competitive people might take extra to get ahead. And we know they will, because cis people did it and once again have ruined everything. EDIT: Uhhhh this looks like a bad way to start a page, I also want to add my voice though to the chorus of "this is the opposite of reality, get hosed Lester" even if I do accept that maybe there might be a point here.

3 months in I still have her to see a single cartoon that even qualifies for "supports Republicans without being deliberately stupid or hypocriyical". I don't think that awatrd for the Gaybies is going to work.

Drawing your political opposition as worms is a powerful image. You don't want to overuse it.

I imagine most idiots like lester don't even consider HRT. They just assume you cut off your dick, get implants, and wear a dress. But never shave, of course. Interesting thought: I don't think I've ever seen a conservative/transphobic cartoonist acknowledge the existence of trans men.

Even cutting off your dick doesn't fit into their work. According to them, it's out on a dress, then spend literally all your time in a public women's restroom.

Right, and compare that to the amount of media with trans women. It's a broader cultural thing. Certainly an implicitly misogynistic cultural thing, but in itself not limited as an impulse to the most vile among us.

Now I'm not sure if this was mentioned already in this thread, but /r/TheDonald had that "drain the swamp" Garrison cartoon on their front page yesterday without a shred of irony. Like, I was surprised and not surprised at the same time. I just assumed his stuff was too batshit for anyone.

What would you say are the quintessential Rall cartoons? The most edgelord, the most ignorant of basic perspective and anatomy, and most utterly incompetent? Also, whoever wrote up My War with Brian and 1984 - do I have your permission to repost elsewhere?

Mister Olympus posted:Don't forget: Yeah, it goes beyond contrarian, he just always wants to be yelling at liberals for not doing everything exactly the way he thinks they should be doing it, even when he's drawing massively on hindsight, which feeds back into the narcissism in a sad way. Remember a few pages ago when one of you guys was like "If protests aren't aggressive enough, then go throw a brick through a window, you loving coward"? I forgot to address it at the time, but make no mistake, Ted Rall isn't thinking "You should go protest, while I stay safe in my recliner-throne and watch on TV". He thinks that he IS the only one effectively protesting. Ted Rall honestly believes that his cartoons are more effective than protest, and that he is the only person on earth capable of providing such astounding insights and piping hot takes.

Don't forget he proudly draw a comic depicting the dubiously biographical chronicle of how he needlessly escalated a fight with a high school bully and tried to murder him several times. That totally happened you guys.

His comics used to get published in my local alt weekly when I was a teenager. I thought he was pretty funny, though not as good as Derf. Then once the internet was more of a thing, and I got to see more of his work, and the personality behind that work, I decided that he was basically a worthless prick. Oh, and when I said so on some random blog I was starting up (where said post was the only content on the site), he found said post within an hour and made an angry reply. Think about the devotion to googling ones self that the alacrity of that response to such a tiny, insignificant speck requires. I wish I'd kept it for posterity, but I basically just called him a talentless egomaniac, one of my friends trolled him for a few posts, and then I forgot about it for a while, and eventually wound up deleting the site because I had better things to do with the server space.
