In the multiplied objects of the external world I had no thoughts but for the teeth. For these I longed with a frenzied desire. All other matters and all different interests became absorbed in their single contemplation. They—they alone were present to the mental eye, and they, in their sole individuality, became the essence of my mental life. I held them in every light. I turned them in every attitude.

Caricaturing Jacinda Ardern based on her teeth is the bit that's closest to normal political cartooning in that Garrison. Imagine the indexing you're working with when asked for the least free nations and coming up with New Zealand.

NZ's "Level 4" is probably the harshest and most aggressive lockdown on the planet. That's why it's working against Delta and why we're seeing the numbers go down instead of up. Was chatting to some Australian folks and was shocked to learn that their "harsh lockdown" still leaves takeaways open. Also almost everyone in NZ is on board with it to the point where the anti lockdown protests are like, one dude standing in the road. Literally.

So...wasn't Little Sam supposed to be on the verge of remembering who he used to be? Sneakily not taking his special medicine to keep him malleable? I guess he forgot about that or regressed? And I know there's no answer since the only explanation is that Ishida is an idiot, but, what's the moral of the Sunday edition? Sam uses a pride power flag as a shield to protect himself from projectiles without actually caring about what it stands for, but the protestors are still actually the bad guys because they were still willing to throw things at the pride flag and were willing to leave it behind to chase after Sam?

The store is selling things other than straight white people and TERFism. Everything for sale, not being tossed out, is bad. This now includes neurodivergent so get hosed if you have Autism is another Nazi stance he’s picked up?  Little Sam, wanting to cater to everyone, ran out of money because he didn’t focus on just straight regular white people like his TERF stand in suggested with the thrown out bargain bin items. The Sunday strip I can only imagine is saying even if you cater to THE OTHERS they’re subhumans who will still try to destroy America

Huh... y'know, I think Sinfest just isn't any good. I did like exactly one comic this week though (which, granted is 1 more than usual), with Kid Sam wanting all of the hats because he wanted to be all things to all people. And now someone can point out the symbolism that I overlooked that means that no, it's actually a terrible cartoon because it means he's being fascist for the fascists as well.l

You can tell the woke zombies are bad because they attacked a pride flag (a symbol of a bad thing that they think is good) in order to attack baby uncle sam (a symbol of america, a good thing that they think is bad). They do this because they are destructive nihilists at heart. As we all know, politics is literally nothing other than attacking symbols of things you dislike and safeguarding symbols of those you like. A literal nazi is just someone with a different opinion, but someone who is willing to attack their own symbols is a deranged lunatic with no morals or principles. TERFs drape all their poo poo in feminist imagery, so obviously anyone who attacks them must hate women. As soon as there's a female sign on the cover, you can't criticize the book without attacking the "woman" symbol, ergo, Zulily Zoetrope fucked around with this message at 14:11 on Sep 5, 2021 |

The cartoon is going on about how bad it is that people adopt or get sold identities. But then complains people don't like these other identities the author thinks are good. Are identities good or bad? We don't know Also if we're complaining about identities being used as brands online, why is the cartoon including "classical liberal" as a decent identity tragically abandoned? It was most recently popularised online by an alt right youtuber shithead to describe his reactionary non-ideology. It was a brand. Of all the cards we see in the comic, the one that was actually used as an online brand is in the "good identities" bin!

So the metaphor of that last comic is that the trans zombies are so consumed with hatred for America and apple pie and traditional family values that they're destroying gay pride power along the way right? Because in TERFs' brains the trans agenda is to destroy the other LGB letters by forcing gay men to become women and lesbians to become men and bisexuals to (???)

Considering queer and the rainbow flag are also now bad things in the bad identity store or coming out of the bad truck in previous strips I’m gonna guess that Tats isn’t giving lip service anymore to pretending to like any non-straight people. Considering it’s a pride flag with the fist he uses to represent BLM I’m going with “The US bent to the lgbt and BLM rioters demands and those monsters still want to destroy the US!” since BLM = riots per previous strips and he’s dropped any pretending to support anyone not straight Lawman 0 posted:I don't understand why it's even posted here.

The lack of any coherent consistency is what kills me. The woke zombies hate America, including the Uncle Sam Mecha that Ishida has been using as a symbol of America’s bloated defense spending and power for over a decade. This is after a week of comics where Uncle Sam is shown as being a bratty kid who wants to run up the debt to play dress up with bad identities. So already, the woke zombies are more sympathetic attacking him because he’s A) America, a bad entity and B) Disingenuously buying up identities. You really have to build him up sympathetic for this to work, which being a longer Sunday strip might work. So to defend himself, he pulls out a black power pride flag. It is very important to note that he just grabs it off the shelf, showing that this is not something he holds dear to himself, but just the closest thing available to use as a literal shield. But the woke horde is not fooled? Uh….no, actually. They continue their attack regardless, which I guess is supposed to show that the woke don’t REALLY care about these identities. But it reads more like they saw through Sam’s ruse and weren’t fooled by his appropriation of the identity as a shield. You could easily fix this by having the zombies stopped by the identity, and then the punchline is terf girl noticing the identity he used fall to the ground, lost in the shuffle of all the identities he purchased. Like he is such a bad writer it’s honestly staggering. Pants Donkey fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Sep 5, 2021 |

Also, the Sinfest patreon is almost below a thousand a month, meaning he is making less than minimum wage on it. Dude, I don’t think Ben Shapiro or Abigail Shrier is going to bail you out.
