There were already anti-Semitic dogwhistles in the comic before the current ongoing poo poo with Israel, though. At least one strip from the black-and-white era had a Jewish caricature devil talking about "subjugating the masses" using "fractional reserve banking", which are lines straight from neo-nazi propaganda.

Once he actually names the Jew as the source of the world's ills there's no going back though, so instead of one-off "well that's a bit AS, but it's no worse than his Ghetto Gangman or Ignorant Woman joke from the same era" you get "here's an entire week of Jew Voltron and the Tunnels Under New York with the worst caricatures you will ever see outside of a National Action newsletter or some posters from the 1930s."

Also typically makes a nice break from just yelling how much we hate Sinfest / Tatsuya Ishida to actually articulating why.

There was some discussion of removing Ishida from kellies eligibility as a webcomicker last year. For reference with about 100 entries left to process (going to try to finish tonight), Tats was nominated 24 times.

the_steve posted:The last time I remember seeing him, it was when the devil kids had gotten home and Ishida had done one of those attempts-at-contrast strips where something bad was happening to one group of people while the Devil was sitting at home watching the children play. The only way to tell for sure would be for someone to flip though every Sinfest strip in 2023, counting appearances of Satan. But nobody would be crazy enough to do that, right? ... https://sinfest.xyz/view.php?date=2023-08-12 https://sinfest.xyz/view.php?date=2023-08-13 (statue only) https://sinfest.xyz/view.php?date=2023-10-09 (painting only) https://sinfest.xyz/view.php?date=2023-10-10 (magic portal painting?) Vainglorious was in it some (14 appearances), which I think was what I was thinking of. We have a lot of stuff happening in hell, with demons, or both, but little actual devil.

You know what the most irritating thing about Like, if you want to learn how to do a clean shave to the molecular level, without a single hair visible, without even needing to look in the mirror because of years of obsessive practice, ask a trans woman to teach you.

JamesBont, for the sake of my getting through these tonight, please separately post the below post from last year in the Kellies thread as a special case.

Guavanaut posted:That could or could not be "just a joke man, like in South Park", same as how his years of circling the drain of galactic lizardman illuminati robot devils could just be the gutter conspiracy poo poo, which while fully adjacent to antisemitism, is not inherently antisemitic (as with Jon Ronson's investigations into David Icke and his fans). Google the phrases "fractional reserve banking" and "subjugating the masses" in quotes together and you immediately get neo-nazi propaganda. I'm not convinced it was ever a joke.

Update: I have now processed all of what looks to be 973 entries from last year. Cripes. I've also taken a first stab at category harmonization. Microplastics, I'll be sending you the current spreadsheet via PM so we can figure out entry number setup and how to resolve a couple formatting issues. I'll be able to work on this again next weekend.

Thoughtless posted:You know what the most irritating thing about The thing is, TERF fuckers like Ishida and Lester and McCoy, et al do not acknowledge trans women as women. That's their entire point. With them it's never "This person says they are a woman because in their heart and soul they are a woman." It is "This is a dude in drag because he is a sex pervert and he knows he is a sex pervert, and saying he identifies as a woman is just the magic spell he has to recite in order to watch children use the bathroom and we all are expected to play along because of Woke."

Rall: What Will Be Left of Gaza for Trump To Make Worse? Ted Rall posted:Democrats argue that Trump, who was very in favor of Israel during his presidency, would be even worse for the people of Gaza than Biden, who has totally enabled Netanyahu to do whatever he wants. However, by the time the election rolls around, there won’t be anything left of Gaza for Trump to make worse.

Skios posted it first on 5 April, then again on 8 April, then Technowolf posted it on 15 April. In between those, Mike Luckovich also did an "OJ in hell" comic which probably just added to the groundhog day feeling.

It's zero. When you're rich enough, you pay zero taxes. And then when you're really rich, you somehow get a refund on top of paying zero. Called it. Skios posted:A.F. Branco The fact that there's a spelling error may actually qualify this as the Least lazy Gorrell.

Fun fact: The INGKA Group, which controls about 85% of all IKEA stores worldwide, has its global headquarters in my medium-sized Dutch city. I pass by it almost every day:  It's not the whole building, or even a floor. It's a single office lot just so they can say that their global headquarters are in The Netherlands for tax purposes.
