The only problem with this comic is that it could have been written non-satirically by a conservative without changing a word.

MODERATORS
That problem is the same I've faced talking to people. They distrust science and anything that disagrees with what they have been told by trusted people in their tribes (often church). That's what makes this message effective.
That's the whole schtick with faith: it's belief without evidence, by definition.
Anyone prepared to have faith in anything is ripe for exploitation, by anyone.
Churchies self-select for exploitation.
You know 45% of Christians vote for Democrats, right? I think that was last election, I haven't checked the recent one, but it's a large fraction.
I know Christians have done a lot of damage, and the evil ones are incredibly loud. It's still weird how some atheists think that only blithering idiots exist in religions.
... And the other 55%? The majority?
And you're taking a national ratio which is meaningless with a system like the electoral college.
It’s still weird how some atheists think that only blithering idiots exist in religions.
Look! We found one!
Why would it be weird that some people from any group have a stupid idea? The average human is pretty stupid.
...wait, it isn't?
NGL, I went to their website to see what kind of content creator they were before posting, because it really could be taken either way, which is a pretty sad reflection of the state of things right now.
You will be able to see the point of this comic as it flies over their heads.
Wooooosh (for them, not your comment).
It flies over heads because its a political fiction that people don't find consistent with reality.
People like this go on dates, get laid, get married, get divorced, go on more dates, and get married again all the time.
Their spouses vote Republican. Their kids vote Republican. Their friends and neighbors vote Republican. They all move to big conservative retirement communities and vote Republican together forever until they die.
This idea that rich fucks with big families don't live happily in their big homes all prattling on about how much better they are than everyone else is painfully naive
This...isn't funny. This is just a repeat of what we've seen on the news. This is literally the trump-era-SNL of comic strips.
Speak for yourself, I thought it was hilarious
Is this drawn by the same people who drew the Clerks animated series on ABC like 25 years ago? Damn show only aired 2 episodes, but eventually released all 6 produced episodes on dvd later.
And, even though the animated show was in color, this comic is in true clerks style......black and white.
But, to be fair, Dante would NEVER vote for trump, Randal wouldn't vote, and Jay & Silent Bob would have just been in jail by 2024.
Who is driving? Bear is driving!
Right? That was my first thought when I saw this, I thought that was Dante and Randall.
Faze, not phase
No, it turned her blue.
I would like this comic redrawn, but shifting around this being phase instead of faze. I bet that would be fun, too.
I bet you use it correctly in the future though
I caught that it was the wrong spelling of the word initially. I just think it'd be funny to redraw it around the misspelling.
More political opinions in the comic form please. This is exactly why I subscribed to this community.
Faze*
No, no, he means it didn't put her in another phase of existence.
