im not offended by this but it itself is not funny. It feels like more of a meme than a comic.

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Certainly can’t say it’s a knee slapper

Social commentary cartoon that probably drives more discussion than laughs - not opposed to a range that includes a healthy mixture of everything from cheap laughs to this

yeah. now that I think of it thats pretty much what most political cartoons are. those ones in the comments sections with elephants and donkey. so I was likely being to harsh. its like not a comics section comic but obviously it is a comic. you know I never thought before how memes or at least political ones are so much like political cartoons.

I've blocked just about every political community because the memes, despite me agreeing with them, are all horrendously unfunny

I get that. I have pretty much been blocking anything meme related but man new ones spring up constantly or it feels that way. I swear some of them are practically just for one person to get their memes of their chest.

How is this not a comic? You need to learn how to take a comic

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You need to educate yourself on why this is not a comic.

My butt hurts.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

see thats the thing. I usually don't really need to take a comic. its funny or at least amusing. this just feels like bitching.

[–] AkatsukiLevi@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

And I commented that only because it was a joke over the comic itself, it just felt funny

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 4 points 14 hours ago

yeah someone explained it to me. it flew over my head but was itself funny.

[–] vaguerant@fedia.io 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"Take a comic" isn't a real expression, they are doing a joke where they have paraphrased the second panel.

ok. that is funny. now that I look back at it. thanks.
