I knew a guy who got caught masturbating in his car in a public parking lot

That’s a weird way to interpret what I said. I care very much about what the current administration is doing. I care very much about my trans friends and the trans community. I’m very aware how things currently are.

My point is simply that it is illogical to blame people who voted third party. Because mathematically even if every single person who did vote third party voted for the democrat the Republican Party still would have won the election.

Democrats want to win? Run on a platform that is actually popular. Don’t support people like Hakeem Jeffries and Kamala Harris who talk down to their would be constituents. Don’t support people like John fetterman who is basically just a Republican posing as a democrat.

Yeah it’s bullshit. I voted third party because dems decided Israel is worth supporting. But let’s be mathematically accurate here.

Even if all the people who DID vote that did not vote republican had voted for the democrat, there would not have been enough electoral college influence to affect the outcome.

You would have needed more non-voters to vote. But a non-voter then was probably a never-voter. There are people that exist who simply don’t care one way or the other who is in charge and you can’t convince those people to go vote. Sure you can try, but in the end it’s the people who did vote who get what they voted for.

Regardless of all of that I find the “you should have voted democrat” argument to be exceptionally stupid. The democrat party is backing a government that I find to be morally reprehensible, as do most Americans, what should have happened is those who were saying “yeah it’s bad but I’m still gonna vote dem” should have just voted for a third party. Why vote against your interests?

AHH AHHHHH I NEED MY IPHONE NOW EHHHHAHHHUGHHHHH I sniffle NEED NOOOOWWWWWW snort sniffle grunt - you

I don’t know if you know this but they don’t care. They’ll make something up. They’ll peddle it like they know what they’re talking about to rile up their base. If it falls flat in the end it won’t matter because they’ll have done what their base wants them to do which is to harass and bully people on the left. What are we gonna do about it? Nothing. The Supreme Court sure as hell won’t do anything about it.

Weird bashing going on in this thread. So I’ll make some counter points

While art is subjective I will argue that their modern art direction is far superior to their early years.

This art direction is far more expressive, there is so much more room to play with this “looser” feel. As an artist you probably want your art to be able to express what you feel. There is also much better color theory and each panel feels more grounded and complete.

As for “their art got really dark”. No … the scene is just dark… there is glow coming from the monitor… If you mean tonally dark I disagree because penny arcade has had tonally dark elements since the rain slick precipice of darkness (and probably even before that, idk I’ve not read their entire lexicon)

P.S. yall realize that artists tend to improve over time right?
