I don't think it is because they didn't draw Tik Tok spying on anyone.

Like you could draw a cartoon of a priest creeping on a child while pointing at an LGBT couple and screaming that they're a danger to children, in fact I think I've seen that exact cartoon and while it does call out the hypocrisy of the priest, it obviously isn't an admission that LGBT parents are child molesters.

That China Daily cartoon seems to just be saying the US government are the real spies, there's no admission there that China is spying.

It's ok for a political cartoon to point out the absurdity of the US government accusing anyone else of spying on people.

We should laugh at the idea that censoring TikTok is based on genuine concerns by the US government about spying. It's complete nonsense.

Even if they are (and I think they probably are, at least to the same extent as Facebook because it's just profitable to do that), the logical solution would be digital privacy legislation to prevent websites and apps from collecting and keeping data users' data, not just Tik Tok. Banning one social media app doesn't solve the problem.

But wow weird, congress doesn't have any interest in that, isn't that strange???

Wow, that's something special. The art's ugly, there's no effort put into its creation, it carries water for actual fascists, and it wedges in anti-woman and anti-trans dogwhistles, and tries to shield itself by crying 'free speech' while at the same time making a joke about trigger warnings, that thing people sometimes freely choose to put into their speech. It's easy to overlook it because it's built in a way to look just bland, but the more I look at it, the worse it gets. The only thing it doesn't quite hit for a blackout bingo is... racism, I guess.

A few big budget Disney and other caped poo poo films have lost a bunch of money because "woke poo poo", Mario not woke made a fuckton according to some alt right youtubers.

If that doesn't make sense, correct! It doesnt!

It's true a few big budget superhero movies lost a boatload of money but it's because they aren't good. Mario isn't great either but it isn't a bad way to spend a few hours, nothing at all to do with woke poo poo apart from some deranged assholes imaginationtryi g to bait for views

Rall: First, Do No Harm to My Legal Status

Ted Rall posted:

Many states with abortion bans point out that those restrictions have exceptions for protecting the life of the mother. In practice, however, doctors believe they have to wait until the mother is actually dying before they can intervene to perform an abortion. There have been several cases where mothers nearly died as a result.

Thats not what he's saying. He's blaming the laws that criminalise what would save her life because doctors - probably with some justification - believe they will be legally imperiled and women will die. Have died in the case that caused Ireland to vote out abortion laws

Rall usually has poo poo opinions. This doesnt look like one of them.

Rall is often "Right, but for the wrong reasons."

He'll have a good take like "Cops are bastards", but then ruin it by explaining that it's because they were mean to him personally and how it's directly comparable to them murdering a black man.

The most frequently cited "anti-woke" attribute assigned to the Mario movie is that John Leguizamo (who played Luigi in the unloved 1993 SMB live action film) has complained about them reversing the inclusion of the 1993 film to have Luigi's voice actor be white in this one. This is a cause championed nearly exclusively by John Leguizamo.

Using diversity of casting as a sole metric, the 2023 version is somewhat more 'woke' than the 1993 version, a film that outside of Luigi and two other supporting characters (Bertha and one named kidnapping victim are white. SMB

2023 is still pretty white, but has at least five credited characters performed by people of color, including Keegan Michael-Key as Toad, replacing Mojo Nixon in the role. All of this is kind of silly, but Leguizamo has made a few tweets about boycotting the movie because Luigi is white, so that's led to the ANTI-WOKE BASED MARIO hooting and hollering expressed in this cartoon.

The cognitive dissonance of these people is amazing. There were people claiming the movie was "woke" because Peach wasn't a damsel in distress the whole movie, but now suddenly it's anti-woke because reasons.
