Bye Bye Dilbert

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...acist-comments

Quote:The comic strip Dilbert has been dropped from multiple US newspapers in response to racist comments by its creator, Scott Adams, who called Black Americans a “hate group” and urged white people to “get the hell away” from Black people in a YouTube video.

Adams’s comments on 22 February came in response to a conservative organization’s poll which appeared to show that 26% of Black respondents said they disagreed with the statement “It’s OK to be white”. Another 21% said they were not sure.

The Boston Globe, the Los Angeles Times and the Washington Post each said Saturday they were dropping Dilbert because of Adams’s comments.

something tells me mostpost isn't going to ask for a forensics breakdown of Adams' comments to make sure he said what he's accused of saying...and he certainly won't claim the video was faked, as he does with stuff I post that he can't cope with...he'll take it all on face value...

You guys are a HOOT

So it looks like 26% of blacks hate white people and 21% aren't sure if they do or not. Anti white racism is at an all time high, driven by progressives and the liberal media. Of course anti white racism is allowed. The left has even invented the self hating white person. I disagree with Dilbert painting everyone with the same brush, but to think there aren't hordes of black people who have disdain for whites is naive. That is what they are taught by who they chose to listen to. On Sunday you can flip radio channels here and catch sermons coming from black churches in the DC area spewing all kinds of anti white rhetoric. They sound like they are preaching to a group of slaves 200 years ago.

THAT'S THE POINT.
It was never about him.
It was about Dilbert, the cartoon.

Who xares who writes it......does Dilbert wear a white hood?
Does he sellcrack? Does he smash and grab shop?

Most people offended by him are probably guilty of far worse stuff,

This is what happens when Democrats, the legacy media and the deep state all function as one to foster hatred and division.

Not Donald Trump (Blacks and Whites were BOTH doing FABULOUSLY under his administration)

Not Dilbert creator

Not Alex Jones

Not Tucker Carlson

Not Fox News

But DEMOCRATS...they're the ones that turned this all into one giant shit show that we see today

(and that mostpost thinks is GREAT!)

Their ultimate goal is the absolute DESTRUCTION of the USA.

100%

no joke

And they have basically succeeded at this point.

The first amendment guarantees everyone the freedom to say whatever they wish.
It doesn't guarantee you the right to anger your employer, embarrass your employer or cost your employer customers. It doesn't matter how unreasonable those customers are.
No one is going to prosecute Adams. And Adams knew the rules when he decided to go off. Let's stop feeling sorry for him.

I don't feel sorry for him at all...and my commentary had nothing to do with his comic getting axed...what you said is 100% correct.

Well, I think it's correct anyway...the part about not getting prosecuted...that will probably be coming sooner then you think in this country.

I bet not one person stopped reading any paper because of this.
No SANE person, anyways.

And nothing could embarrass those papers more than their own cover ups of any new not fully supporyive of democrats.

And ABC carries the view, 4 of the dumbest, ugly, pigs in the human race.

Agree 100%.

Funny CRT paints ALL White People as inherently racist... the proveyors of that crap are looked at as enlightened and equitable. But to respond to a reported survey of showing 40%+ of a non white group has hatred based simply on skin color alone.. the very definition of racism. That person pointing out the BS must be the racist and canceled at all cost.

Democrats sure have done well with stoking the division fires... wait till the San Francisco 5 million dollars racist reparation and victims of drug war debt forgiveness spreads across Amerika.
