What episode of the Twilight Zone is this?
The thing that gets me every time is actually being funny gets shot in the head instantly in the cross fire.
“Seek offence and you shall find it”
Naaah fam, if you get hurt it’s your choice to hurt back.
Progressives pulling the boy who cried wolf routine on bigotry muddy the waters of the topic, which they don’t care about, because it’s just a means to grab a little social power to them.
My butt does hurt.
im not offended by this but it itself is not funny. It feels like more of a meme than a comic.
How is this not a comic? You need to learn how to take a comic
see thats the thing. I usually don’t really need to take a comic. its funny or at least amusing. this just feels like bitching.
And I commented that only because it was a joke over the comic itself, it just felt funny
yeah someone explained it to me. it flew over my head but was itself funny.
“Take a comic” isn’t a real expression, they are doing a joke where they have paraphrased the second panel.
ok. that is funny. now that I look back at it. thanks.
You need to educate yourself on why this is not a comic.
My butt hurts.
Certainly can’t say it’s a knee slapper
Social commentary cartoon that probably drives more discussion than laughs - not opposed to a range that includes a healthy mixture of everything from cheap laughs to this
yeah. now that I think of it thats pretty much what most political cartoons are. those ones in the comments sections with elephants and donkey. so I was likely being to harsh. its like not a comics section comic but obviously it is a comic. you know I never thought before how memes or at least political ones are so much like political cartoons.
I’ve blocked just about every political community because the memes, despite me agreeing with them, are all horrendously unfunny
I get that. I have pretty much been blocking anything meme related but man new ones spring up constantly or it feels that way. I swear some of them are practically just for one person to get their memes of their chest.
this doesn’t say anything
This curiously says a lot about our current social sphere.
like what
Like it’s all just a ego contest and in the end it doesn’t really matter who’s right and who’s wrong, in the end all that matters is that one or the other will get enough social pressure to make the other one shut up.
In this day and age, people argue over everything from the most basic stuff all the way to the most ridiculous stuff
It is about arguing culture.
what about it?
No it’s not!
Oh yeah? Where is your proof?
That’s not an argument, it’s just contradiction
No it isn’t
If that’s from monty python then you are right. Marvelous piece.
- No it isn’t.
- No I’m not.
- No it isn’t.
(yes to all three, actually)
I see what you did there
We’ve been over this already.
Oh man there was an entire south park episode about this…
Even triggering arguments to build up hype on socials. Can’t find the episode, but it mentioned arguing or disagreeing with someone while aiming for a 3rd person to jump in overreacting and it spreads.
Edit: found it
Season 20 finale, 2010, featuring Elon musk…

It’s a way in which one person can create a massive reaction on the Internet. Look, person A trolls person B, but it’s not about person B, the troll is trying to push buttons to try and get a reaction from hundreds, eventually creating person C, whose overreaction and self righteousness will elicit a reaction from persons D through F, who weren’t trolls but can’t help rip on person C.
I mean, what was the post? Some things that are posted are offensive whether or not you intended that and it’s not unreasonable for someone to comment on that.
If it’s happening to someone so often they need to physically move to a different platform, maybe they should pay more attention to what their saying and the audience you say it to.
Like if I’m with friends and someone makes a dead baby joke, I’d probably laugh, if someone recently had a miscarriage the reaction to that joke will be very different.
I wouldn’t expect a lot of 4chan jokes to fly in normal society and if you can’t engage with normal society without making 4chan appropriate jokes, maybe you need to work on your conversational skills.
Their mistake was engaging the offended idiot.
Indeed, if someone gets a little butthurt due to a simple joke, it ain’t your fault they shoved it up their own asses.
Who dis m8
Pundit from the film Starship Troopers used as a patsy to forward state propaganda.
It looks like Elijah Wood’s brother who was kept locked in the attic all these years.
This reminds me of people who comment, say on video clips of older movies and television, “you can’t make stuff like this anymore.” Just an unhelpful take on the situation. One that takes no effort to come by. Regurgitation at best.
You can’t make stuff like this anymore.
it’s not that you “can’t make” it… you can make whatever tv or film you want to. it’s that you’d have a hard time selling it in the current time.
Well, to make it, you need money and therefore an investor and you won’t convince anyone with “it” anymore
*faint sounds of regurgitation can be heard off in the distance*
It’s not that comments are supposed to be original or something. Sometimes it’s just to engage with the YouTuber or the community or just to boost the algorithm. If you’re looking for good content on YouTube, watch the videos instead
Well done edgy humor always has its place. Its always sunny is plenty edgy, moreso than anything mainstream from any time prior, and extremely popular. The problem with people who make those comments is they could have NEVER made anything good, theyre uncreative and unthinking, and so they get locked into an outdated mentality and their humor never develops past whatever they found funny in their formative years. Because some things are edgy AND good they mistake being edgy for automatically being good.
Offense is taken, not given.
This
It de-legitimizes actual debate about issues with racism, homophobia, sexism, etc
When you just lump in everything that is legitimate debate along with batshit crazy stuff, then its far easier to just to dismiss it all and keep acting like a racist, homophobic, sexist ignorant jerk.
If you can’t tell what is offensive and what isn’t … it’s not a problem with the comic, it might have something more to do with you.
If you can’t tell what is offensive and what isn’t
That’s subjective though
i feel like i need to know the authors political leanings before i upvote this comic… yet i think that might be part of the authors message
Gonna have to check your post history before i upvote this one
lmao
