Still not a fan of pizzacakecomics. The ones that are supposed to be funny aren't, imho, and the political ones are way too heavy-handed for my taste.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I agree with the content, but for a comic that's on the reddit frontpage all the time it's an incredibly crude way of getting the point across.
Pizzacakecomics is on the frontpage of reddit exactly because it's heavy-handed and only mildly funny. But this is one of those "if Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favorable reference to the devil" kinda situations, so I give them proper recognition for speaking up.
Okay, fair. I just wish I could escape them – which is rather hard if the people voting stuff to my Lemmy frontpage have just as poor taste as the average redditor.
Pizzacakecomics buys upvotes and will ban from /r/comics for bringing it up. The worst part is that even after you're banned from /r/comics you still have to see their unfunny garbage.
There has been no argument from Musk.
He used a joke to deny being Hitler. Not the same.
He said didn't want to be referred to as Hitler.
He denied nothing.
He recognized it was Nazi salute by referencing Hitler.
If anything this was an implied confirmation, not a denial. Nothing was denied.
Sorry, but no. Anyone in their right mind would have immediately come out and said I apologize for that action etc etc. The fact the he didn't is all the implication required for him to be labeled at nazi. There is no denying no excusing it.
This means Musk is bored of being called a Nazi. Nothing more. Certainly there is no denial from him of doing a Nazi salute.
But I am glad you agree it was a Nazi salute. Thanks for clarifying that.
So ... not a denial.
So what if it was a Nazi Salute “everyone is hitler is so tired"
You see how a confirmation fits just as easily as your imagined denial.
That is still not a denial
You're the one who keeps saying it's denial. I'm telling you it's not.
Same as you :)
Your self portrait is exquisite, thank you for sharing.
Oh c'mon don't be so hard on yourself! You're not weak sauce
True, but then again it's exactly what you'd expect from them these days. And even if it wasn't – this comic is so darn plump I have a hard time seeing it as satire.
Plus, the creator drawing both caracters as ugly braindead idiots makes up half the 'joke' here. If ones satirical abilities are so non-existant they need to degrade the physical appearance of their opponents (however vile their views and actions may be) in their works, maybe it's just time to give up and do something they don't completely fail at.
It's an incredibly crude lie they're telling you when they say they don't see it.
Youre right, but that doesn't make this comic – or the others made by the same creator – any better.
That's like, your opinion, man
It is indeed, yes.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
