  • It’s just obviously not about all the stuff that you seem to think it’s about.

    But it literally is? You’re the one coming up with weird interpretations about “what if it was actually about xyz”

    What is actually happening in the comic is that a character is being racist and the victim of that racism is portrayed as being wrong and annoying for calling out the racism. That’s literally what’s happening in the comic. It doesn’t require any kind of gymnastics or interpretation, that’s the surface level reading of what is occurring in the comic.


  • Racism justifies harassment and home invasion?

    Yeah. Not gonna cry over what the victims of racism do to racists.

    and more about the harassment veiled in false civility as a means of silencing discussion.

    How is the sea lion silencing discussion? They weren’t discussing anything, they were having a racist circlejerk. The racist lady said a racist thing and the sea lion invited discussion by asking, “Why did you say that racist thing?” and then they refused to actually explain why they’re racist against sea lions, treating it as self-evident that being racist against sea lions is correct and thus that it is unreasonable to question it.

    Pretend he’s not a sea lion, but a conservative

    He can’t choose not to be a sea lion. This is kind of incoherent. “Pretend he’s not black, but a conservative.” This sea lion could also be conservative, that doesn’t really have anything to do with the fact that he’s being criticized for immutable properties he was born with, not for anything of substance.
