I'm beginning to notice that Sophie's work is getting less and less effort towards actually presenting an argument. Even less so than usual, I mean. In their earlier comics, Sophie at least presents moon logic to support their stupid points against strawmen. It's where my favorite non-word from Sophie, "neurosexism," stems from. But now they can't even be bothered to attack the strawman, instead just insulting it by calling it fragile or unintelligent. And when they're not trying to argue a point, the comics are poorly constructed jokes with either a non-sequitor punchline or obnoxious one-liners.
Their comics were always lazy, but now they're also becoming quite mean-spirited. Which is not the word you want to hear when people are describing your comics meant for children.
If anything, the moral these recent comics are teaching is that you should yell at or insult anybody who disagrees with you, as anyone who does so is only antagonizing you. Which i suppose is the standard approach that actual adults seem to be taking to discourse these days, but it's certainly not something I would want to encourage my child to emulate.
