"Comic writers are bad at writing personalities for minority characters" is a vile message? I thought that was a well known issue.

You're AGC'ing this one. That certainly isn't the intent of the cartoonist here.

Context is important here. Coming from someone that actually understands writing and the importance of representation, they might have a point. Sometimes writers will make a character a minority and act like they are being diverse even if the character in question does nothing to contribute to the work. Like having a leading cast of nothing but strong white males that drag along one women that just stands back and watches them.

But we know this is coming from a misogynist and a racist so that obviously isn't the point they are making.

Sorry I don't really feel like digging through a 700 page thread to find out if someone is actually a nazi or not.

Like I'm sure they make lovely comics or whatever, but don't post a comic that at first glance most people would agree with and then pull out the rug with "well the person who made this is a nazi, way to agree with a nazi' without proof.

It was posted last week. Multiple comics. All a variation of misogynist, racist, or anti-trans/LGBT. The fact that you missed it, including a page's worth of conversation talking about rehosting the comics so their twitter doesn't get more views is really suspicious.

And was predicated with "Guess who...". They're a known comic to this thread and we all knew what the message was.

Do you need a weekly digest or newsletter to keep up with the thread you've been posting in since April?

In case you really haven't been keeping up and aren't just poo poo-stirring, here's how this artist feels about women's equality:

I think you should be able to extrapolate from there how the other comic is meant.

I know that they make lovely comics and have lovely opinions, I just want proof that they are actually a nazi before accusing people of interpreting their comic in a charitable way of agreeing with a nazi.

I'm sorry for the stupid derail, but I really don't like being accused of agreeing with nazis, in case I haven't made that clear.

I honestly thought you were trying to parody the people who argue that the Charlottesville marchers "maybe aren't technically Nazis" even though they carried Nazi paraphernalia and made Nazi salutes.

Instead of painting them all as 'alt-right' figures, the media should face the fact that many people with similar ideals and objectives are conservative, Christian Republicans. AGC.

Yeah but there's a difference between a species going extinct in the wild with some surviving in captivity vs. a long extinct species being revived.
