Careercow Scott Raymond Adams / @ScottAdamsSays / “Real Coffee With Scott Adams” - The Washed Up Cartoonist Behind “Dilbert”, Creator of “The Dilberito”, Professional Bullying Victim, Political Grifter, Terminally Online Narcissistic Boomer, Divorced Twice, Is (Not) Glad His Stepson Overdosed. This is Not a Racial Politics Debate Thread

He’s officially a lolcow of the year candidate.

It is incredible that was so well received on twitter.
Are normalfags finally starting to wake up to our reality?
I've been checked out for the past five years or so, and I have no idea what the consensus is anymore.

It’s weird to see based takes like that on Twitter in the current year. I have to keep reminding myself that Elon Musk took over, fired Twitter’s pajeet overlords and sent the purple-haired suicide squad packing.

Whether you agree or not, if he wrote that a year ago people would have been able to get you banned from fucking everything.

If he goes all in and does a mirror universe comicstrip where Digbert is getting lynched by some Ghetto black Israelites, I'd frame that shit and laugh at it everyday.

Scott has always been a dumb piece of shit. Even in his early books, he thought that people gave a fuck about what he thought. He’d always include a chapter or two of his opinions that people would ignore. Draw me some funny comics, moron. I couldn’t care less about your political or social takes, especially since they’re transparent as fuck and add nothing to the current discourse.

The best outcome for this has started - his comic goes away, and people begin to stop giving a fuck about what he has to say. Without a comic, he’s just some retard on the internet saying stupid shit. The fade into obscurity will be delicious.

 

[AnOminous]

This is how he wants to be remembered. Not for the cartoon, not the television show, not the businesses, not the politics, not even the vaccines... he just wants to be "cancelled." Just wiping himself with excrement in town square.

HURR DURR LOOK HOW RECLOTTED I AM!

 

[LonesomeDud]

There's some truth to what Adams said. He cited a study about the majority of black people viewing whites unfavorably, and it's undeniable. I also would not live in a predominantly African American neighborhood because of the animosity. That said, Adams seems like a hateful person and lolcow.

 

[Irrational Exuberance]

On the other hand, creating and encouraging a society where any wrong word gets you marked for life does not help people share and evolve their feelings and beliefs. Instead you create a Pavlovian response where everyone hides the thoughts and feelings of the "real" them, and people as a whole become more insular and less genuine. Sure, at the end of the day no one has to platform you, but if you're shut out constantly by people while told they don't have to reason with you or even explain why you're wrong, what reason do you have to give the same generosity?

Argh, I can see in my head a series of Bloom County comics that I remember reading in the 90's - one of the characters got hold of a time machine and went back in time to influence different people (including getting Hitler in 1945 to say "I'm a victim too"), and then returning to find the present a blasted landscape where people went around wearing metal boxes and condemning others for "harmful speech". That was back in the 90's, but it fits so well now! Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Apparently I saw this on Twitter and this was supposed to be an “own” of some sorts:

Also to be fair, 13/60 is wrong. Fact is, black women are not committing those murders, it's black men. So it's really 6/60.

Black women don’t murder because they don’t carry guns. They lead violent assaults on whites regardless. They lock up simple merchandise in stores because sheboons steal so much. They are lazy at their jobs. Grotesque and obese. Abuse their kids.

 

[Shart Attack]

USA Today is probably overjoyed Scott Adams has made someone pay attention to them for the first time in decades. Who even reads a newspaper anymore? Getting dropped from a newspaper nowadays is like getting banned from all the automats in the country.

I look forward to Barnes and Noble bravely stepping up to ban all Dilbert collections from the Starbucks locations/toy stores they call their bookstores. That will surely protect the feelings of the black community, which is famous for reading newspapers and frequenting bookstores.

So what's that stuff about 'I identified as black for years'? Was that just a joke or did he actually pull a Dolezal?

The guy is a hypnotist and believes in "affirmations."

He probably said, "I'm black" to himself 100x, assumed it was true, and then expected the world would bend inwardly in conformity.

No different than a man "affirming" he's a woman 100x, but society DOES bend inward to conformity on that one...

 

[The Last Stand]

I identify as biracial. You don't see me shaming a whole race of people. Yet saying that the Black community has internal issues that need to be addressed is problematic.

this thread in a nutshell:

 

[toilet_rainbow]

The only people I see buying newspapers nowadays are boomers that buy them on Sundays for the coupons, or younger people buying supplements if the home team won a major championship. Usually the boomers just read the daily paper in the store and put it back afterwards like they’re at Barnes and Noble.

I don’t think many boomers even read Dilbert? Who reads Dilbert unironically nowadays for that matter? Everyone in this thread that regularly read it haven’t done so in years. That or they just watched the TV show. I often forget Dilbert was still making new strips.

This is just a shallow PR move by the newspapers to appear relevant. Scott has been saying crazy shit for years. It was fine to them until now, long after they were making money? Why was this the straw that broke the camel’s back? Because he said what he did during Black History Month? USA Today found an opportunity and took it.

Not that it’ll help. I can see it folding within five years like the rest of them.

That comment is racist and wrong! I've seen plenty of black people in bookstores. Especially in places such as Minneapolis.

I must be the only Black person that liked Dilbert.

 

[Jonah Hill poster]

I just want to point out that there is actual news of a six foot black child brutally stomping and almost killing a female teacher for confiscating his Nintendo Switch and not much complaining being brought towards that, yet apparently Scott Adams getting his comics removed from certain newspapers for discriminatory language is considered harmful to society.

I’m just confused.

 

[Boner Pill]

His comic is bad and you can say he's wrong but I don't want to live around niggers either.
