Okay, but like is the empty box signifying that we've got no DEBT, or that DEBT is a useful thing, or are we preparing for more DEBT by acquiring and labeling a box for it?

I dunno man, if I don't like something, no one else is allowed to like it either. That's just how things work, right?

Hey, I'm all for keeping Zelda. She's a good and clever cartoonist, ya? But let's face it, we need balance. For every Doonesbury there must be a Mallard. Bring back DBD

If you want Nordic right-wing cartoons for balance, here's some. These are printed in the official paper of the True Finns.



Finnish celeb priest who helped refugees momentarily planned to move to Tanzania due to harassment. Yes, the newspaper name literally translates to "Ooga Booga Times".



Social Democrats are trying sell MORE DEBT, MORE TAXES and MORE REGULATIONS



Finnish Broadcasting Corporation planned to do a show about the Quran, which apparently meant that a far-right politician's drunken ramblings about how "a man shouts in a minaret at 4 in the morning, that's nice to listen" are coming true...?



Welfare service doesn't help granny but gives terrorists all the money they need! This is a thing that actually happens and not something Kalle just made up on the spot.



Then-EU Commissioner Olli Rehn: literally a vulture with a scythe



Finns used to be big tough men, now we are apparently histrionic gay stereotypes.



A LADYPRIEST marries gay stereotypes in the name of the Beelzebub while a bishop drives Christians out to Hell from the church. Allah worship at 15, Atheist coffee session at 17. I'm not sure True Finns actually published this one.

All the comparisons to DBD are intensely unfair. Zelda's art is so much better that it's actually good (:monocle:), and while a lot of the political content does revolve around pwning strawmen, the storylines in the comic aren't anywhere near as nonsensical as DBD's email-forward-chain-fueled fever dreams and the author-avatar character doesn't feel lifted from a 9-year-old's crayon scribblings.

Someone once called it an inverse Adam4d with better art and I think that's closer to the mark, although I think the most apt analogy would be "if David Willis was less obsessed with children's cartoons and toys"

That said though we really don't need to stop posting it; it's increasingly seeming to fit in here better than Prickly City ever does

If it was a maple leaf instead of a pot leaf it could be read as an argument that single-payer healthcare causes more people to get addicted to prescription meds, which, while I don't think it's true, is actually a new and original take on an extremely relevant issue which I don't think I've seen argued anywhere

so of course it's just more dumb weed fearmongering instead of that. Cartoonists don't make up their own talking points, that'd be silly!
