Y'know, as much as people dislike the post-apoc cartoons, this one is a perfect representation of the problems with not only the capitalist system, but with the issues with overcoming it. There's a perfectly obvious solution (kill and possibly eat Kromm before dividing his wealth amongst the destitute) but people are too busy trying to curry favor with him rather than just overthrowing him. Rise up and seize the means of pillaging! All raiders are equal!

I'm fine with last Sunday being the last Sinfest Sunday. He's gone full-on right wing, incel apologist, born again "Christian", swerf/terf, and I think the only things he's missing on the extremist bingo card was "outright neo-nazi" and "holocaust denier".

ZZT the Fifth posted:Missing-ish? He's done a bunch of anti-semitic tropes and poo poo; an Einstein caricature devil using "fractional reserve banking" to "subjugate the masses"; complaining about "globalists", the Bilderberg Group, reptilians and the Rothschilds; the whole blood libel poo poo talking about using the blood of children to make eternal youth pills.... That's what I mean when I say he's not "outright" a neo-nazi yet. He's blowing the dogwhistles as hard as he can, but he hasn't out-and-out hidden (or blatantly shown) swastikas and having the "protagonists" sieg heiling like that one comic (was it Red Panels?). The mask may have all but fallen off, but it's still hanging on by a thread.

While it's lovely art, the actual countries are sorta-kinda the right shape, except that Ukraine is missing some territory occupied by Russia at the moment, and Russia either has a weird "object on a sphere" distortion going on, or they've had a large chunk taken out of them by...

Oh geez, I didn't even realize that he had Russia and the Russia-occupied part of Ukraine as two separate countries. It doesn't help that he has the Azov Sea a lovely shade of brown instead of, y'know, blue. Then again, he also has the ocean as green with something written on it, so I should have realized.

Kikas posted:I think it's "the propaganda narative of cop racism doesn't fit this particular case because the cops who killed the black teen were also black" if you want to use Branco-specific mindset. Thats what was throwing me off on this comic, that the only people who bring up race in the matter are either A)right-wing shits trying to deflect from the fact that 5 cops killed a guy who only fought back once they started beating him, or B) People who point out that the white officer was given a slap on the wrist while the black officers were arrested for murder. If it were an elephant (and anyone other than Branco) I would say it was AGC about trying to make an issue of police brutality into an issue of race, but... gently caress it, it's a Branco, my only regret is that it's too early in the morning to start drinking and that I have to work so I can't drink until after work to try to kill braincells that were wasted trying to figure this cartoon out.

Idgi, why is that not functional? Is it because it's a biker helping out someone who had a flat tire? Is it because the car has a spare and a jack, rather than just a patch kit? Yes I know it's supposed to be horribly anti-trans, but I choose to be horribly obtuse and make them explain why what they chose to show is supposedly bad. Also, just pretend that I quoted the Sinfest comics with a "gently caress you." as my comment to each one, with 20-30 gently caress Yous under the one making fun of recognizing Indiginous lands.

I think we've had special Ks for this each year I've run it. It was more of a situation where it wasn't necessarily the worst (it may not even be in the top 5 that we've seen this year from Stiglich) but just that... "perfect" combination of dogwhistles and outdated references where your only initial reaction is to want to tell the author to gently caress off. I also want to nominate Tatsuya for a lifetime achievement award in the category, otherwise I'd just be nominating every Sinfest Sunday.

Oh, no, I just meant in general, I'm tired of these lazy "Why persecute Trump for crime when crime exists?" cartoons. The picture itself (because let's be honest, other than being drawn, is stretching the definition of cartoon) is just... nothing. There is nothing to it. It's just a remarkably lazy cartoon, where any effort more than just sighing and telling the artist "gently caress you" is more than what he spent on the cartoon. Like, if you told me the text was lifted directly from the talking points, I would believe you 100%.

I mean, this is a Garrison cartoon, so there's probably also racist and antisemitic elements in there as well, but it was drowned out by the pure transphobia. A solid month's worth of Sinfest transphobia compressed into one comic.
