One might say it’s their defining trait

In the same way boomer hippies were “fighting” against their progenitors, sure.

Wearing flannel and complaining about the status quo does not make you a freedom fighter.

The top labels are reversed. I doubt a lesbian icon would be something boomers would appreciate.

Not to mention her capacity for change.

Can it be filled with… things?

Oh, he definitely does malign things that hurts both the US as a country and Earth as a whole… but not everything he says is indicative of what he does. If you simply take everything he says at face value, you will get so mired in bullshit that you won’t be able to pull yourself out when something meaningful does happen.

If you just sum it up as being stupid, you ignore the inherent nature of it.

It’s intentionally stupid to make you pay attention to instead of anything truly meaningful. The political equivalent of saying something wrong on the internet just so some angry nerd comes along to correct you. He is stoking outrage for the sake of outrage, so that his bedfellows can capitalize on it, and he can mooch off them.

And a lot of unimportant shit that shouldn’t really be a factor gets brought up because some people just don’t like it.

Trans people in women’s bathrooms, or even something as simple as gay marriage, for example. Should we spend time and energy on that because it hurts peoples feelings?

Like I said, it’s not a matter of all one thing or all another. It’s about finding a middle ground.

The same can be said for a lot of people who complain about lots of things being offensive.

In reality you should seek a middle ground, don’t take everything so seriously that it ruins the joy in life… but also don’t treat everything (and everyone) as a joke.

Grellow.

Or, if you’re feeling nasty, yeen.

I assumed he was trying to arm wrestle the eagle.

You mean Futurama

Ah, well, they moved it ten days away, very hidden and sneaky. Those dastardly fiends.

I mean, winter solstice is a little more than a week away, I’d say that was probably a significant influence on the designation of end of the year.

Because the comic is inspired by Japanese 4koma comic structure.

New? This one has been a classic for decades.

Did bandana kid do this against their will? Did they sacrifice everything to get their friend to this? Were they led to believe that friend was going to get something more complex up until this moment? Did they not care at all about the ice cream?

Why are they so invested on their friend getting something complex? Seems like bandana kid is judging their friend based on criteria that deeply personal, and is kind of a tool.

Which books? I’d love to read more on this topic. Maybe I’ll get some actual insight outside of “No, you’re wrong because I know what’s right, you dork”

👍

Just because someone says they represent everyone, and that what they own is owned by everyone, doesn’t make it true.

Did people have a say in what they could do with that infrastructure, or was it ultimately just up to the people in charge? If the former, it was socialism, if the latter, it wasn’t.

Be more concerned with what people do, not necessarily what they say, when ascribing ideals to them.
