dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

The text is correct, but this is an absolutely terrible comic from pretty much any other perspective. It's just one dude ranting for three panels after being pitched a softball question. There's no event happening, no real character interaction with anything, and no use of the visual nature of the medium whatsoever. It should have been a blog post.

there is a tiny bit of commentary, that seeing a man dressed like that in a redcap deep-infiltration the expectation is a bigoted rant at the interviewer, it instead an incredibly supportive progressive take comes out

but it’s weak and your overall point stands that it is a terrible comic

Needs to be at least 32 panels with footnotes to achieve some ironic comedy credentials.

I had a relative who tried to do this to me and I had to point out Imane Khelif wasn't even trans - not that it mattered if she was - after this relative insisted that she was "tall" and "built different". I had to explain weight classes in boxing. This relative then brought up Riley Gaines; who I had to inform this swimmer tied for 5th and is just bitter and transphobic about that.

Not even a prompt or lead up to this conversation that formed organically to discover this, just a "hey did you hear about this olympic boxing incident?".

I have to move out.

god i could only wish to be able to spit such facts on demand without thinking about them

[–] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

She isn't trans though, the boxer.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

Yes that is what the comic is saying.

Transphobes are still attacking her though

Isn't this the baby porn person?

I think this is the baby model porn person

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I looked her up but I couldn't find anything about her other than she is a trans cartoonist. Do you have a reputable source?
