Rall: That's What Cancel Culture Is Ted Rall posted:Controversy that followed race-baiting by cartoonist Scott Adams that led to the cancellation of the iconic comic strip “Dilbert” included numerous people denying the meaning of words and terms involved.

It's so weird when people refuse to internalize nazi shibboleths, as I have. Fun fact: this is also what set Scott Dilbertman off on the rant that got him booted.

Skios posted:Specifically, Tinsley did a cartoon about Ilhan Omar's alleged antisemitism that backfired horrendously, and Fishman took over. For a while it seemed that Fishman might push the comic a little bit more back towards sanity, but it's basically the same message, just with slightly tighter art and jokes that occasionally land.

It feels like there's a whole genre that basically shakes out to "this group of people are loving miserable because we have set their future on fire and their present isn't looking too rosy either, clearly somehow this is their own fault." Like this is a mental health version of dipshits wringing their hands about job hobbing or "quiet quitting" and don't look at reasons why people might do these things, such as "we are expendable cogs that they will regularly overwork and underpay, and our only reward is being jettisoned at the end of the quarter to make some already rich guy even richer." Or the classic finger wagging about those darn millennial kids (they're mostly in their 30s to 40s now) and their avocado toast or whatever and if they'd stop that they could pay off those college bills and buy a house, because they're still working off a mental model where you could mow lawns for a summer to pay for college, buy a house, start a family, and still have a nest egg for savings and are unable or unwilling to understand that things are different now. Not even worse, which I think they are, just different.

The response that's gaining traction for why kids these days have so many mental health issues is "Not enough Jesus." Basically the idea that all of the things like phones and Tik Tok that they're all into has taken the place of good honest church and Bible reading time and if they'd just accept Jesus all their problems would go away.

Yeah, that's the other thing with the "why are kids turning away from church" hand-wringing bullshit and nobody stops and asks why, and it reminds me of this blog post about the guy who "protested" General Mills by setting a box of Cheerios on fire in front of their office in 2012, the short version of which is "everyone assumed this guy is some flavor of evangelical Christian because he was rabidly homophobic and for no other reason, and it turned out he was, because that's what we are in the public eye, and that's terrible." So of course kids aren't showing up to churches when it feels like all you're going to hear is "and here's why god wants you to poo poo all over this group of people." About the only thing that's shifted since that article, which let me point out is eleven loving years old, is exactly which group they're freaking the gently caress out over and want to see oppressed and/or eradicated.

It's literally that one Kelly comic, except it's about talking/not talking about mental health instead of racism. (but also some racism)

There are definitely liberals who make a show of possessing basic human kindness, and it’s a bit eyerolling, but I’m not sure if the guy from the party that went apoplectic over people not wearing American Flag lapel pins should be the one throwing stones about virtue signaling.

It just really pisses me off that this thread is overflowing with homophobia, transphobia, racism, misogyny, and contempt for all those struggling, and that when this sonofabitch complains about the lack of empathy, it’s code for “why won’t democrats be nice to me and my libertarian ideas”
