Yeah. So far we've only seen the True strips where he's the good guy. They were apparently the minority.

I don't think they're necessarily the minority (maybe, but I'd need to see a bigger sample). I just think that in a hundred year old strip there will be outdated ideas.

I actually like that he's wrong here. That's a battle that we as a country won. It's nice to be reminded that some battles aren't just some sisyphean task.

I want future generations to look at some of my ideas and think they're backwards because they've progressed so far.

The person who has been selecting them for us has said as much.

Neat! I look forward to seeing him be wrong a lot then.
