There was also different fractions of resistance groups and they didn't always agree with each other.

Wow wow wow there

Don't forget, they bravly beat the gently caress out of women who were accused of sleeping with Germans.

Such patriotism!

To be fair, a lot of them were leftist. Schisms over theory is kind of mandatory. It wouldn't surprise me if they occasionally sabotaged each other

Yeah there's a huge disparity in how eager they were to punish women who slept with German soldiers for basically food money as opposed to French businessmen and local politicials who profited on supporting the nazis.

It seems pretty clear who should, according to Rall, do the resisting he alludes to in his strips - the self-proclaimed #Resistance. And if they aren't willing to live up to that moniker, they ought to drop it, because their behavior is a disgrace to the name. Or if they want to be known as resistance to a dangerous regime, they should do something more than trying to passively wait it out (which isn't really resistance at all).

Which is a reasonable and fully justified position, maybe he's too obnoxious about it, or lazily brings it up again and again, but he's right, and the "he's calling for violence but also being a coward" reading is disingenuous. He's just calling out people who take credit for a role they have no intention to fulfill.

After Greece was liberated there was a civil war between the left resistance groups and the right resistance groups (fueled by Churchill who didn't want a communist government).

Compare and contrast Ramirez and Varvel bringing up their dad moms.

...

Oh wait, they never did that*. No one other than Rall did that. I wonder why.

*The closest thing is "my grandad fought in the wars, gooooooo VETS!"

The first Rallmom comics were good except for the art, but are some point it became increasingly "sometimes it's harder on the son (me, Ted Rall)", which could be have been done a lot less whiny and entitled.

Normal Rall just seems to want to be really radical, without any follow through, and the added fun of being literally paid for by a Russian propaganda outlet. It occasionally his a good point, but probably with either weird logic or a questionable underlying agenda.

I mean do we have to repost the comics? Maybe the first one is him publicly grieving but the rest are typical incredibly self-centered Ted Rall faire. Besides, if anyone expected goons to be sympathetic, caring and supportive, much less to Ted loving Rall, then I suppose they deserve the disappointment.

So were back to the same gaggle of do-nothing contrarians stanning for their king again. Ted Rall has a long body of work showcasing his selfishness and sneering contempt for social justice efforts, but a true leftists knows that all the hate he gets is just because the liberals cant handling his radical takes like 'cops are bad because they once harassed me Ted Rall' and "why do we even need marriage equality? gays were so much cooler and more fun when they were marginalized from society."

THOSE are the comics that are supposed to show off the immesurable arrogance and narcissism of history's greatest monster, Ted Rall? lol, this htread sure has a fair and balanced view of that guy, surely nothing to do with any underlying issues.

Iirc it was around #6 that people started raising their eyebrows. It was so much about him rather than her, and he clearly misunderstood the doctors diagnostic questioning as judgemental. And why wouldn't a clerk tell him that? It was just such an off cartoon with even a little thought.

Before that people gave him the benefit of the doubt. But the inner Rall shows through.... He can't help but make things about him given the slightest chance.

it rules that people are more willing to look for 'good ones' from actual white supremacist cartoonists than just not have an emotional breakdown that ted rall exists.

e: remember when people would call him a literal Russian government agent because he did cartoons for RT?
