Quorum posted:They failed to get that across, relying on the fact that their intended audience would already agree with them to fill in the gaps. In particular, they don't actually show the #woke guy doing anything heinous that would reveal him as a hypocrite, and instead have a totally different guy act like a lech. It's not a good cartoon, even if its intended message is good. It's not suggesting that all woke guys are hypocrites. It's saying that the "woke" guy is a hypocrite because he's only paying lip service to supporting the movement. If he wasn't using Lip Service, he wouldn't be a hypocrite - or in the cartoon.

What's more surprising is that All Lives Matter is somehow a good thing to pay lip service to??

It's not a good cartoon, even if its intended message is good. The comic is about a guy who just wants to use a product literally called Lip Service. They got it across, you just bricked in your reading. ZenMasterBullshit fucked around with this message at 18:56 on Jan 12, 2018 |

I get what they were going for. I just prefer more showing than telling in this, a visual medium, but I guess it's no worse than your average First Dog. like, you guys don't think I literally didn't understand the comic, right? I want to be sure here

The second panel straight up says "Want to look like you support a thing but not actually do anything?" You just misread it to get made at someone making fun of Dude Allies. Which is pretty funny because it's kind of the point the comic is making.

I agree with the point the comic is trying to make, my dude. Don't misconstrue me making fun of a comic I think is mediocre as trying to whine about my feels

They basically are, except that the phrase virtue signaling has stopped being about performative wokeness and is now about advocating for good, just things on the internet. Shame none of the replacement phrases have the same snappiness.

So seeing how it’s mid January and the temperatures here in New England have violently shifted from blizzards and sub zero to nearing 70 the regulars who use coldness as an example of global warming not being real will surely now admit climate change is really because it’s now warm out right?duz posted:Is anyone who isn't media actually saying Oprah should run though? It’s not even the media saying Oprah should run outside of a few people saying it. However she gave a speech about woman no longer being quiet about sexual harassment so in right wingers minds this means she is against them and planning on running. I can only imagine the mental gymnastics to not have a “are we the baddies?” moment when you find yourself thinking someone saying sexual harassment is bad is an attack on you Dr. VooDoo fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Jan 12, 2018 |

I mean, I could definitely give examples of people I know who want Oprah to run for President now, but anecdotal evidence would rightfully not please anyone anyway so vv "Oprah running for President is a right-wing lie" is an acceptable place for the discourse to be in my estimation anyway

Funny, coming from a right-wing hack, when Twitter just the other day banned Lucien Greaves and the Satanic Temple for reporting a tweet that called for their headquarters to be burnt to the ground.

Then, when they grow up and realize they're attracted to the same gender, they tend to have some weird ideas about what it means to be gay.

Cloud Potato posted:Mail: Also, the Daily Mail is loving pissed right now. Virgin Trains recently publicly declared that they would no longer sell the Daily Mail on their trains because it's a loving rag that goes against any reasonable person's values. Okay not exactly as they phrased it, but the Mail quickly had every other media outlet arguing whether or not a company deciding not to sell a product was a form of censorship.

Something that tells me a significant portion of Twitters workforce in a position to create and enforce policy are the same as that dudebro who got fired from Google. There have been far, far too many "accidents" that point squarely at that.
