The Woke Attacking Dilbert the Comic Strip

You can’t judge humor like that.
There is absolutely no reason not to mock the sick, dying or mentally disturbed.

Everyone is fair game.
There is basically one rule: it shouldn’t be malicious; it shouldn’t make you look better, at the expense of the target.
And there is an exception to this rule: people in power. They’re fair game no matter what.

I don’t see the pr ...[text shortened]... example:
I can crack a racist joke. A racist can’t.
A racist can crack a racist joke about Obama.

It’s not aimed at hurting people.
And you can’t have humor if people have a right not to feel insulted.

We'll have to agree to disagree on that. I think there is no excuse for gratuitously hurting people, whether the mode is humor or some other.

This, I believe, is why Scott Adams (Dilbert cartoonist) invented the Elbonians LOL 😆 😆

He dumps on the Elbonians like there is no tomorrow, makes them all look stupid and ugly LOL.
And you can tell the WOKE idiots are chomping at the bit to go after the Dilbert strip, but they can't 😆 😆 😆 😆

Don't really see anyone going after 'Dilbert,'
except you, Earl, and your favorite source, ''BREITBART.''

How sad has this America become. My God, isn't anything sacred, not even Dilbert?

Earl wasn't going after Dilbert, he was posting ABOUT lefty dooshes and SJW groups that were.
Sheesh, get it right.

If you look at who's actually complaining it's 4 dumb people on Twitter. Breitbart writes these vapid articles for clicks and ad revenue but it's garbage journalism.

America has not become this except in your right wing bubble. If you look at who's actually complaining it's 4 dumb people on Twitter. Breitbart writes these vapid articles for clicks and ad revenue but it's garbage , meaningless journalism.

@earl-of-trumps said
not to totally take away here, but...
How many adherents do you suppose those 4 dumb people on Twitter have?

Breitbart is surely picking on a sect of people. sick people, but people none the less.

The whole point of humor is to point out our flaws and mock us. It should never be censored.

The trannies are faux upset jut so as to bring attention to themselves as the innocent victims being kicked.
Dave had absolutely nothing to do with trans *anything*.
