It's impressive how duckduckgo manages to be so much better than bing despite being a frontend for bing

Not gonna cry over what the victims of racism do to racists.

Eh...I dunno. I'm not going to tone police anyone, and consequences for bad actions are definitely good, but do two very-wrongs make a kinda-right? I'm not sold.

Look...if you don't vibe with the comic, that's fine. It's just obviously not about all the stuff that you seem to think it's about.

It’s just obviously not about all the stuff that you seem to think it’s about.

But it literally is? You're the one coming up with weird interpretations about "what if it was actually about xyz"

What is actually happening in the comic is that a character is being racist and the victim of that racism is portrayed as being wrong and annoying for calling out the racism. That's literally what's happening in the comic. It doesn't require any kind of gymnastics or interpretation, that's the surface level reading of what is occurring in the comic.

No. What is actually happening in the comic is that a character is having a discussion with another person (not a racist conversation, because sea lions are not sentient beings despite what is about to happen). Treating it as anything more than that is reading something into the story not intended by the original comic. Not everything is so literal, particularly with Malki comics.

sea lions literally are sentient beings in the context of the comic. the only justification the comic gives for why sea lions are bad requires them being sentient beings so that they can speak up against random racist tirades about them.

are you literate

I'm a simple man. You go into ad hominem territory, I leave the conversation. See ya.
