but ... isn't the whole point of this cartoon that there's really no difference at all? am i just readin what i want into it?

Ok knowing nothing else i absolutely want a transforming Woolly mammoth but.. Does it just turn into an amorphous shape?

If you love xfiles like i do but also like to make fun of what you love check out 'monster of the week' an xfiles comic that lampoons (with love) every episode in order of appearance. It's a great accompaniment to the camp that is xfiles

Can you put up a paywall workaround?

Less a necessarily bad person, and more an ideologically influenced one, I’d wager.

What does 'bad person' even mean?

he asked rhetorically

With all the respect i can muster, you are the one misunderstanding religion's purpose.

They are not.

If organized religion ever helps humanity at all it is through the good people it inspires to help, the good part of humanity it brings out. The people who focus on that aspect of its tenets would always be good.

But the book(s) and the men who wrote them are as full of power and venom as any other book, and the very idea that one is special by birth is disgusting and small. It is a venal thought shared by the religious and nazis alike.

The cancer is organized religion. There is no bad apple within its core to root, it is itself the problem.

and while the world will never be rid of its mind stifling influence, i will never stop dreaming of the shining day we grow beyond it

Which one is chocolate?

Or its a great chart that works very well at the purpose of hemming in free thought, as the idea of 'diversity' by someone so penned is apparently Choco or vanilla flavored fascism

I see! Thank you for clearing this up for me

I donvoted cuz representation isn't a thing. It isnt 'making up' for anything. It doesn't take time away from programming "fun" in. Everything op said was such an insipid, cataclysmically bad take that my finger hit the down arrow in self-defense, lest i be infected by his brainworm.

the very idea that it could is such a ridiculous assumption, it needs lots and lots of downvotes to help future posters understand just how bad a take it is. This could even help insure better posts can be made in the future by better people.

Because in almost every other country “liberals” are right-wing free market types...

No that's what the liberal politicians are here in the States too, though they like to paint themselves otherwise

HULK SMASH CO²!

Ooh if I'm alive I'm putting something smelly in that hole first so they can taste my esteem to their final breath

Man we've just got to find a way to kick all these assholes into a volcano. I don't want to die of thirst knowing some rich prick is holing up in a bunker. I would be so salty! I wanna go down with their fucking blood in my teeth.

And the Bernie Bros! And the poll kiddos who polled but didn't show! And the misogynists who hate hill-dawg for being woman and the agesists and...

Yeah there was a meme on the lib-space the other day about how you have to hold your nose and VOTE (hoping for a future more progressive dem) or you'll lose the chance to vote forever.

But if you follow the logic to its end-point, the meme fails. Since the DNC picks your D candidate, and D is the only one you can vote for forever, are you really voting for a future you can look forward to now? Is there even a point when one side is a hand-picked quiet fascist and the other is a loud obnoxious fascist?

and still expect $20 a hour

You won't even get me to show up for 20/hr in 2023. If an employee can make that shit pay work for them the business owner should be doing backflips to keep them happy.

My house is filled with my friends 'bad' art because i love her and it makes me happy when i look at it

How does one go about reading these pieces? I get so angry every time. Now i need a new shirt parenti, goddamn

TLDR

because the author thinks so.

No, really. i read the whole thing. It was a slow
