I like that if you start at "Sanctity of marriage", something the radical right clearly does not actually value, and work counterclockwise the terms get increasingly vague and meaningless until they completely phone it in with "Etc". What values.
"If robosexual marriage becomes legal, imagine the horrible things that will happen to our children, then imagine we said those things, since we couldn't think of any. As a mother, those things worry me." -Futurama
So I like playing the cinnamon rolls game. Every time you see "marriage" instead read "a common law government contract that bestows rights and responsibilities and formalizes systems of inheritance and power of attorney in cases of incapacity, originally managed by churches because religions were the original governments" and the word sanctity loses all meaning by the end of a discussion with a homophobia
And what these right wingers always conveniently forget is that their religion only tells THEM what to do, it has no impact on anyone else.
All of these “values” can remain 100% unaffected within themselves, they just want the bigotry of forcibly imposing these “values” on others.
And that’s their problem - they’re screaming bloody murder because their ability to be tyrannical authoritarians is being taken away.
The etc is really a "you know what i mean" here.
As in "this cartoon is preaching to the choir". It doesn't make people think or do anything butnnod knowingly.
What a waste of even a little creativity.
Which... Dammit. I have to double check I don't know the illustrator one of my buddies fell down the rabbit hole
Edit upon closer examination this is a poor shop of an oatmeal. The fuck. Oatmeal doesn't stand for this. THIS IS WHY I CARE ABOUT ATTRIBUTION
Don't worry they ripped off the cartoon too
Oh no, not et cetera! That encompasses all the other things!
Not my cetera patch I planted so many als. We were going to et so good.
yeah they couldn't even come up with anything how lazy is that
Lol christians don't even follow christian values
Just ask for forgiveness at death or on Sunday and they good, meanwhile they feel they have a pass to be assholes to everyone else. Anyways, that's just my observation. Ever had a argument wit a conservative Christian? Man they go nuts if you ask is that what Jesus would do?
And yet, if you paint the steamroller a gaudy fake gold color and have it being driven by every conservative you've heard about in the last year, it gets way more true!
I'm an old straight white guy with a pretty normie-looking family, and I know damn well that almost every LGBT+ person out there shares more of my values and gives more of a shit about my marriage than the conservative grifters out there.
Is The Oatmeal (the creator of this comic) a right winger? Everything I know about him is saying otherwise.
Nah it was him taking the piss outta fallwell and people who overuse the word literally
Look how happy the steamrollerers are
Having never met the dude but as an expert on webcomics i can authoritatively say no they are not.
What good is all that studying if you can't stick up for the allies too
No, he publicly stated this was a alteration of his work https://www.facebook.com/share/1Dww8fX5ZM/
The Oatmeal comic was still created as a reaction to an incredibly homophobic comment from an extreme right winger before he died.
So even though it's an alteration, it's still exactly how the comic was originally designed.

I get what you're saying, but there's something funny about your comment that is basically saying "even though it's different, it's the same."
The Gayroller of Theseus.
How gay do we need to make the operator before we horseshoe this
Original:
SO I dug a bit and the original is from a comic called Literally where he pokes fun of the word literally being used as its own antonym instead of figuratively.
Specifically he mocks a quote from some dead bigot.
You'll take my Etc from my cold dead hands!
Can I have a go on the gayroller next?
It's my turn, but you can sit on my lap.
Is that an open invitation or do we have to take turns
The gays are coming for your /etc folder!
nah theyre in my ~/Homework folder
I would offer that conservatives have done more to destroy traditional values and the sanctity of marriage than the LGBT crowd.
In order to even engage them with that fact you'd have to live in the same reality unfortunately
Nah, three marriages == 3× the sanctity. It's just math.
IDC IF IT'S RIGHT WING OR LEFT WING.
I JUST WANT MEMES THAT WHIP HELLA ASS.
I can maybe take them steam rolling over traditional values and the sanctity of marriage but "etc" too? They've gone too far this time.
That's the Christian people when the pastor reads from the bible they'll complain he's too woke and leftist.
Let me translate: oppression, abuse, inequality, racism, misogyny, pedophilia.
Traditional values:
Oh no, not Etc!
oh, fk. now i know i'm gonna call it that sometime when talking to a client.
Yeah but if you're talking Linux they're already techy enough to get the joke
The LEFT will NEVER take AWAY my DARN etc
Yep favourite was when I was told queer people have declared war on God. Makes us sound metal as fuck.
Stole the fucking RAINBOW!
Sounds like norse god shenanigans, if that's not cool, what is?
