You think reality is a circle of salt around my brain keeping witches out?

There's this weird sense that all things related to heterosexuality are fine and good and family friendly, and that anything even tangentially related to homosexuality is basically porn.

This was a page back, but yeah, I've noticed a huge upswing in "equate anything done by LGBT people as a weird sex thing" arguments from conservatives, particularly Evangelicals, post-Obergefell. I mean, that's always been an aspect of their brand of homophobia, but it's practically all they've been doing for the past year, especially regarding Drag Queen Story Hour. They've convinced a huge portion of America that drag shows are some sort of Weird Sex Thing, and so a drag queen reading a story book to children about being yourself morphs into some freakish pervert getting off in front of a group of innocents. Like, just last week, a months-old picture of a drag queen getting hugged by a kid, put up on a library's website, got described by American Family Radio as "a shocking picture of a sexual deviant, lying on the ground, in genital-to-genital contact with a child". They have their narrative, and no amount of describing what performance art is is going to change their minds.

It's frustrating, because it's blatantly just a justification for trotting out the "The gays wanna gently caress our kids! We need to think of the children!" talking point, which I naively assumed was more-or-less dead in recent years. But, nope, we're going straight back to the Anita Bryant days I guess.

A century from now, people will look at old Bernie cartoons from the late 2010s, and go "Oh look, they were complaining that the top 1% held a mere 92% of the wealth. How quaint. Welp, my 45 second lunch break is over - back to my 18 hour shift. Those essential oils cancer treatments aren't gonna pay for themselves!"

Gonna make three cartoon predictions.

Garrison is gonna draw an AOC goomba getting stomped by Trump dressed as Mario. In his post, he will overexplain the joke. The cartoon will make me want to die.

I mean if the goal is to remind us that Muslims are just as capable of hokey hit-or-miss cultural comedy as any other religion mission accomplished.

First, not really feeling this post, my person. It has been a day.

Second, there was a dust up between AOC and the Congressional Black Caucus that included a quote from an anonymous aid that told a reporter that AOC was a puppet and sent them a picture of a goomba puppet.

How the hell are you reading posting comics in a thread for them as passive aggressive behavior

People get mad because the thread will/won’t ban a cartoonist, or we don’t go 100% with their pet cartoonist, or whatever and grumpily post apolitical cartoons or Ted Ralls or their preferred bugbear.

It’s not hard to notice when a poster changes their posting to such a pattern.
