"Trans" is just an adjective. Use it in the way you would use an adjective, in whichever language you are using it in. It is a little funny that it's always the same people that can't figure out adjectives also decrying pronouns, who would have thought grade school grammar would come under attack like this?

As demonstrated in the only acceptable standard, it is spelled Mega Man, Air Man, Needle Man, etc. Furthermore, if Mega Man defeats you, he gains either Trans Torpedo or Sonic Cissle.

It’s always best to ask which they go by, but if you aren’t sure then consider ‘they’ instead.” “Copy that.” “And furthermore, I couldn’t help but notice how you said ‘trans woman’. They’re two separate words, Snake: one is an adjective and the other is what they are. If you ever need help, think about how you would say ‘black man’ or ‘lesbian woman’.” “Hmmmm, but what about ‘Irishman’?” “Try to focus on the basics, and the mission, for now, Snake.”

I'm...guessing the kid in the first strip is a reborn Uncle Sam or something and he's being brainwashed by The Deep State into thinking true red blooded American patriots are evil enemies, and the fifth strip of him playing a video game is supposed to be him shooting a red blooded American patriot. Also lol at the last strip having the red hat character do a patriotic salute, which is good, while the blue hat character has a raised fist, which is evil.

That week seems extremely reactionary, like Ishida heard all the chatter about him pivoting to Q poo poo, and he felt the need to nip that in the bud. Also, nice try aging up 2021, buddy, but at this point she’d be roughly 10 years old. You can’t keep up with my pedantry!

I think the point he's going for is BOTH SIDES BAD because GOVERNMENT BAD and the poor naïve fools who are just trying to believe in the government are the real victims here. Please ignore how one side is overwhelming racist and sexist and governs in a way that leads to many people dying.

 All cartoons are about : Scott Morrison among small group to receive first coronavirus vaccines administered in Australia (ABC). Broelman:  Knight:  Scott Morrison was there when the first Australian got vaccinated for the photo op and did a V for Victory sign and asked her to join in, so she did that (words are Knights obviously). Morrison then changed into a Diamonds netball top for his vaccination photo op, which is why he is in different clothes in this one. Rowe:  Spooner:

Very little infuriates me as much as scaremongering about "GMO foods". All food is genetically modified. We've groomed both animals and plants to make them more efficient to farm and eat for thousands of years, even before we knew what genetics were.

In a strange sort of way, it's a bit of a relief to see Garrison conspiracymongering about vaccines. Not that it's good that he's spreading this nonsense, but if we're going to get Garrison cartoons, I'd rather they be anti-vaxx quackery instead of insurrectionist fascism because the golden calf he worships didn't win the election.

I would like to point out that ‘trans’ was not originally a stand alone word, it’s a prefix and is still specifically a prefix in a scientific context (chemistry naming for one) hence why the original description was trans{noun} and not Trans {Noun}. Obviously, language changes and we should refer to people how they prefer to be referred to, but it’s not just a TERF thing. Edit: I’d love to ask Garrison if he knows what mRNA is, let alone why it’s scary.

GMO is just about my least favourite phrase, never fails to get my hackles up. I hate it. Let's see, you can selectively breed and cross two types of corn with no control and hope the genes sort out in the way you want, or you can use some really incredible modern technology to change the exact gene you want to change and nothing else and get exactly the result you want on the first try. But one is "unnatural" so that makes it magically bad I guess.
