sorry, hang on, are you implying that the mere act of posting cartoons to the political cartoons thread in a dead gay forum is getting people harrassed for some reason

Hang on you just gave me an idea of how we can escape this hell and never see another political cartoon in here again

i'm sure the crime of just posting discussions in this thread is just as serious and damaging. we're all surely culpable and deserving of wrath

:kstare:

I suspect this might be something of a send-off for Sinfest - Space Cadet Omoly seems to not be posting it anymore and half the thread wanted it to stop anyway. Certainly I can't be bothered to start posting it myself, and with "this strip's 'ironic' depicition of child sexualisation is too close for me to want to post it" happening multiple times I imagine it wouldn't last much longer even if anyone else wanted to.

Ishida has gone from SWERF to TERF to open fascist edgelord under our watch (having previously gone from edgelord to Born Again Male Feminist Ally, Enemy Of Pornography and descended from there), and while there is always deeper for Ishida to go down the radicalisation rabbit hole, maybe it's best not to follow him. I mean, if someone else finds something worthwhile to say about his future output then I'm not going to stop you, unless someone wants to get the mods to add it to the Don't Post List, but unless something particularly exciting happens I can see the worth in leaving it here.

Ishida still seems to be getting some engagement on Twitter, but he has at least lost his (already dwindling) Patreon recently, so maybe he'll finally wrap up his doomed project for good and get a worthwhile job that benefits anyone. I imagine not, though. This is the kind of guy who will go to his grave ranting at shadows and demanding to be taken seriously by a wider society he refuses to properly understand.

Here are the previous two weeks of Sinfest, 26 December 2022 to 8 January 2023, and the conclusion of the utterly stupid Personification Of 2023 arc that he occasionally remembered he had to do something about.

Hooo, he really is keeping up the "johnocide"/"genocide" pun/dogwhistle, huh. I figure it's only a matter of time until Ishida has the zombie handmaid do some loving Triumph of the Will poo poo at this point.

Given that the zombies have also represented trans people/ trans allies / anyone Ishida dislikes in a particular week, the implications are Not Good

e: as opposed to the regular implications of sinfest, of course, which are fine and beyond reproach

this isn't the worst coming out story I've ever heard but you should still come up with a fake story so you don't ever have to explain to a normal person what sinfest was

yeah just say you watched a lot of sissy hypno porn and it worked on you, that will be easier to explain to the average person and less shameful than spending time reading bad political cartoons

I "love" the reactionary joke format of just shoving some New Words The Kids These Days Are Saying into something else and pretending it means anything about anything. You see, Sturgeon's government passed some law that had something to do about trans people, so we can take Gender Fluid, which is a word the kids are saying, and shove it on there, and it definitely means anything at all. See, now Sturgeon is Gender Fluid! Gender Fluid is when someone wears a skirt and also a suit jacket. This is... bad? I guess? Nicola Sturgeon has been Owned and Satirised through the medium of Comedy.

"Martin Rowson on UK ministers blocking Scotland’s gender recognition law – Nicola Sturgeon and Rishi Sunak have come to blows over what the SNP called an ‘attack on the Scottish parliament’"

Independent:


The first one is a bit too close to an all-sides-are-bad for me, implying Sturgeon is just as culpable for this, but the second one has gone all the way into blaming sturgeon for deliberately passing a law that the tories just have to block or something. Even the "good" british political cartoonists keen failing to understand scotland. though i should be glad Mac hasn't had a hot take on gender recognition reform yet

Wait, is this actually a sympathetic take out of Matt? I'm surprised.

Matt's cartoons are so utterly bland it's hard to tell most of the time. It could just be the one thing he knows about Scotland ("there are two football teams that do not like each other a lot") combined with A Thing Happened In Scotland or he could actually be trying to make a point. Who knows

I mean there's definitely a practical limit to abortions, it takes a certain amount of time to detect a fertilised egg, you'd need qualified staff, facilities to do it in, even with everyone doing their best to get knocked up as often as possible to ensure a supply of dead baby souls for the armies of Satan there's going to be a number of limiting factors to this great utopian vision

Also opium dens are generally seen as a bad thing, right? Distract yourself from the world with drugs? Like not a good thing? But the cool frogs are doing it and they fight against the evil feds? I'm sure Ishida will make this make sense eventually with his brilliant cartooning skills

Really struggling to figure out what Bok think the joke is supposed to be.

I think I can see why he thinks it's a clever point to make , but spoiler: it absolutely doesn't make it any less stupid

Step 1: Some people point out that black people, as a whole, are victims of racism
Step 2: Chip Bok at al look at this and decide that this is actually racism itself, as it is having people consider people's skin colour at all, when you could just ignore it entirely and not consider generations of compounding oppression, and all would be fine
Step 3: Actually, come to think of it, Bok et al decide, having thought about it we have decided you are asking us to consider their skin colour and nothing else. did you know Martin Luther King, who we can pretend now we always liked, said a thing about the content of character
Step 4: Some people point out that these specific black cops were being racist
Step 5: Aha, says Chip Bok, genius cartoonist, this contradicts your whole "only consider people's skin colour" argument that I'm pretty sure you made at some point, making you all fools and idiots.

So glad to go to my local "Woman XX" bathroom, which is definitely how bathrooms are labeled and not my misanthropic bullshit.

there's definitely been a bunch of photos shared around supposedly showing men's bathrooms and gender neutral bathrooms with the implication that there are no women's bathrooms anymore because women are being destroyed by gender. please do not ask what is off camera or what the bathroom situation is elsewhere in the building, please, just look at these two doors and draw the wild conclusions we want you to
