That podcast episode that was posted mentioned that the last time 'Nique showed up was when she got mad about trans people being in a queer bar and that was apparently over a year ago.

I have no idea how accurate that is, but it has been a while since she was around

She showed up after that to stomp on a pride flag and accuse her girlfriend off being in league with groomers. Then she was persuded by police for defacing a pride flag. I think that was the last time we saw her.

I don't blame anyone for forgetting, considering that we're talking about Sinfest and paying any kind of attention to it is self-harm, but she actually showed up for one strip recently talking to the redneck about how white supremacy was the enemy of mankind.* The redneck disagreed, as the reader is supposed to.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

It was also even more blatantly a mouthpiece for and representation of Ishida, which has all sorts of deeply unpleasant ramifications regarding his psyche.

He doesn't want to spend too much time focusing on the Palestinians because they are, after all, brown.

There are few things on this Earth, and specifically this state, less popular than gutting the Open Public Records Act. According to the polls approximately 81 percent of voters, regardless of party, oppose the changes to OPRA proposed by Democrats, but if you think that’s going to stop them you haven’t lived here long enough.

When the initial plans to gut and mount OPRA were leaked earlier this year the blowback was immediate and intense. So intense and so immediate that Democrats pulled it off the agenda and vowed to spend some quality time thinking about what they’d done. Apparently the time for introspection is over and after some alone time Democratic leadership has come to the realization that they’d really like to run the government in secret. Hence, they’ve decided to charge ahead, with the approval of a number of Republicans, with the same gross legislation as before.

The legislative sales pitch for the original bill was to reform the system and make it easier for local governments to fulfill records requests without placing an undue burden on the municipalities. The reality is the want you to mind your own beeswax. The old bill was about limiting government transparency and the new bill is no better.

As outlined here in our editorial, the three most repugnant aspects of the bill have remained fully intact. They served voters a hot garbage sandwich, voters sent it back and Democratic leadership put it in a to go box. All the bad stuff is still in there, the onerous filling requirements, the exorbitant fees and a provision that would make it drat near impossible to find a lawyer to challenge denials.

This bill has nothing to do with reforming the public records system and everything to do with keeping the public in the dark.

I can't tell if Tats is having a broken clock moment and stating zionist protestors are insane and making up a lot of the hate they're supposedly getting or if he's equating Israel = jews, therefore bad.

These aren't mutually exclusive? He's kinda saying both.

The pro-Israel Republicans give a pretty good template for how to approach that, which is to claim he isn't arming them regardless, gently caress reality.

If you are 18 years old and an antiwar protester, old militarists will say that you’re too young and naïve and ignorant to understand the complexities of foreign policy and should just shut up. But if you’re 18 years old, and you don’t know anything about anything, they are happy to send you to go kill people in those very same foreign conflicts you don’t know anything about.

A lot of the political cartoonists are capable of crafting a serviceable (not necessarily funny, but at least recognizable as one) joke when they aren't trying to make their usual stupid politics takes.

Tinsley had some about newborn baby logic a few years before Fishman started taking over, Fishman has put out some tepid but harmless jokes, hell, even that mother's day one from Payne a few posts up is admittedly a cute joke.

It's just that they then immediately go back to "And here's why it's actually a hate crime against me to not let me say the N word."
