Why would someone interested in comics go to a TV and Funk Pop convention?

They have this odd idea that if everyone ever makes a 'brave stand' against CG then it will go away. People don't think like that, if you got all my heroes to denounce say vaccines it'd just make me angry and distrustful it won't actually make me change my mind.
I remember Dan "looks like he's dying and ignores the little girls crying"Olsen was obssesed with channel awsome condeming GG, which even if it succeded and ignoring hindsight wouldnt have stopped anything.

I'm sure that will work just like autistically screeching at GamerGate made it just go away, instead of causing it to hulk out and elect Trump dictator of the universe.

They think of activism as having a similar arc to oscar bait movies, the main character (MLK or whoever) starts campaigning and makes a stand for some time, then the bad guys magically back down under pressure. Combine this with dumbass millenial slacktivism, and you get dumbasses thinking that with enough retweets they can change the world!

Needless to say, their idea of activism is deeply misguided in an incredibly hilarious manner.

I think it was mentioned before but the Honey Badgers are jumping on the CG bandwagon.

Guess who pushed for and celebrated them getting banned from Calgary Expo? Who could it possibly be?

#MarkWaidHatesAsians just met their sister #:

#MarkWaidHatesWomen

This is bizarre so many women are joining Comicsgate, I thought it was all just white dudes.

 

[Starscreams Cape]

Oh come on! Mark Waid looks like a guy who has no trouble relating with women at all. My guess is that he puts them at ease with just his presence. Seething anger burning under the surface? Not this guy, fella.

Max Bemis has a story where Moon Knight fights a serial killer Nazi, his name is:

 

[Water-T]

Or Zoe quinn will do something moronic to make the situation worse?

She'll do her friend Robbi one better and Tweet pictures of her semen repository to D & C.

She'll do her friend Robbi one better and Tweet pictures of her semen repository to D & C.

I'm pretty sure she's already posted pictures of her face.

There’s nothing more cringey to me as the phrase: “We’re on the right side of history”. The moment you utter those words I lose all respect for you as a person.

What’s all this about? Remember that chick from Comic Crusaders that got fired for publishing an article calling for more violence shortly after Jeremy (Quartering) got sucker punched. Apparently CC got sent these DMs from a comicsgater (weird how she doesn’t name the sender) directed towards her:

Spoiler: REALLY REAL THREATS GUYS I SWEAR

“A single post containing this phone number as Comicsgate...and was gone when I went to screenshot it.” How convenient. Have they finally started fabricating they’re own harassment?

Here’s the phone number owner, someone traced it to this:

“OMG guys I’ve been totally harassed, I must tell everyone!”

Meanwhile Yaboi:

 

[Chan the Wizard]

What’s going on with the Valkyries? I see some more of them eating their own over WoC the bravest type of woman except for TWoC.

I remember in the history books when people did bad things and then someone came up to them to say "Dude, you're on the wrong side of history" and they went "Yeah, you're right" before stopping. It's not like everyone is the protagonist of their own story and it's entirely possible someone sniffing their own farts would think "I'm right about everything".

I too believe in some all powerful force that dictates the direction history will go in. Reality is very opinionated and agrees 100% with the Social Justice movement of the 2010s.

All the worst people in the history of the world have said they were on the right side of history. It's sort of their defining characteristic.

I just want to see where they found whatever gave them the idea that SJWism is the "will of the universe" instead of us being a bunch of apes on a wet dirtball floating in a merciless void. Was there some troon on a mountain top who could hear this Supreme Power talking to them?

So you believe in God Communism?

 

[Judge Dredd]

When I see people unironically claim they're "on the right side of history", I wonder what they will be like when they get old. Especially if CG wins and anti-CG is remembered as a "the bad guys".

Will they claim to have been on CGs side all along, pretend it never happened, or will they be at the retirement home throwing porridge at the nurses while screaming "FUCK DRUMPF! EVS IS A NAZI!"?

EDIT: Fixed a fairly important typo.

Farago has been acting extra cringey lately:

Yaboi revealed a sneak peek at the EVS variant for Jawbreakers:

This is something I've thought a lot about in the broader group of really crazy social-justice-type people. There's no real way to de-escalate from all of this when you're still doing it well into your 30's, and even if there was they haven't shown any inkling that they're ever going to do that. My theory is that they're going to go the way of the hippies and either die from drug overdoses or end up clinging to life as parasites on the welfare system.

There are two basic options here. One is to keep fighting long after you've lost because you still know you're in the right. The other is to cash in your chips with the table that will still let you play.

Which do you think is the preferred choice of lazy cowards?
