Neito posted:Sovcit stuff is always my favorite type of crazy because it's always something like "TOM of the family JONES avoided paying onerous taxes to THE QUEEN WHO OWNS ALL by sending a higgldy-piggledy to the Mayor of London on the seventeenth moon of their eclisiastic cycle. And it worked! Except for the fact that they were arrested, and jailed, and forced to pay the back taxes, and the fines, and were kicked in the balls for biting a bailiff and screaming that he just sucked out his soul. Buy my book for $49.99 plus $200 shipping and handling to lean my secret about how you, too, can never pay taxes again" and the first word out of their loving mouth is always "Do you take checks, or should I just send you the deed to my house?" They all go by something lower than air bud rules and it's amazing

There's of course a lot of thread regulars who utterly loathe the LGBT+ community, but I really do think Gary McCoy probably hates us the most. I just get this raw, angry, absolutely unbridled vitriol from his works that I don't really see in anyone else, save for possibly Pat Cross. I guess maybe that's the only real other contender that I can see. Either McCoy or Cross holds the title. Everyone else is just tame in comparison to these absolute monsters.

I've got no idea what's going on with Sinfest and I don't think I want to. Especially if the personification of 2022 is aging like last year where in March/April 2021 was very obviously a teen with pigtails.

Can't wait for Sinfest's spin on Ukraine war. Are the Ukrainians woke nazis that the Russians are liberating or another way around? Everything is possible, also that it spins suddenly another way around in the middle of comic, like police in is sometimes good and sometimes bad.

Look at this group of WOKES, just smiling and being confident in themselves, just the worst. Meanwhile, here's our protagonists, wandering around looking worried and/or grim about everyone else being happy the entire year, occasionally making a snide comment or a noise of disapproval but never doing anything of substance. Unrelatedly, I'm still laughing about how he killed 2021 offscreen and then just forgot about it.

Branco had three nominations for Least Concealed Bigtory against trans people in last year's Kellies, McCoy only had one and it didn't even depict a trans person, it just showed Biden at a desk. I'd rank McCoy as much more tame than Branco for sure, I'd put him at about Skelley or Bok's level, where yeah they hate trans people but they clearly don't think about it outside of the few times they have to make a cartoon about it due to right wing media. Branco though, especially with his gross caricatures, just oozes hatred for trans women in an especially vile way.

Doesn't sound like much of a mystery to me. I know the implication is that they'll stop being hateful bigots if you tell them their bigotry is cool and doesn't reflect poorly on them, but there's a single little flaw in that line of thought.

Alhazred posted:It's also worth noting that transitioning does not automatically make you a better athlete: First, Lia is a college student, so while you could claim she did for scholarships, she came out after she had graduated high school. They also try to frame her as a loser, but she took 2nd in the men’s championship her sophomore year at university. Next, she is on hormones, which does stuff to the body. I know, chromosomes are literally the only thing that governs sex, nothing else matters at all, but put a pin in this. So what are Lia’s reasons for being a dirty rotten cheat, if you prescribe to the reactionary point of view? She didn’t do it for a scholarship, she was already doing well prior to transition, and money for women’s sports is uh…not great. Fame? Women’s sports aren’t even in the minority of airtime, they’re practically a statistical error. Men’s sports has like 96% or so of coverage, and even gender neutral sports get a bit more. You likely would not have known about this swimming championship had Lia not won. Now let’s go back to hormones, which Lia has been on fir nearly three years so a lot of changes are permanent. Lia is basically giving up fertility, undergoing genital shrinkage, breasts development, and many other permanent changes IN ADDITION to intense media scrutiny so she can apparently dominate in sports the overwhelming majority of people barely know exist. Yeah, that’s loving genius I can’t believe I never saw it that way.

And don't forget that if you force trans women to compete in men's leagues, you also have to force trans men to compete in women's leagues. Obviously this doesn't matter to the diehard bigots, because their end goal is for trans people to just stop existing, but it's worth pointing out to the people who haven't given it much thought and are swayed by the concern trolling.

In my experience they will either stubbornly pretend not to understand what you're talking about (ie continue to insist that one Texas transboy wrestler who was forced to compete with the girls is a transgirl who was born a boy), or they'll just say "yeah that's why there should just be a blanket ban on anyone who transitions"
