Definitely not kosher, either.
These folks are involved in illegal harassment, swatting and promoting violence. It’s not a difficult case.
This.
But get ready for the wave of free speech (for Nazis) absolutists who (a) try to make excuses for that cyst, (b) try to Both Sides it against activist sites that have so much as a who’s who list of flaming human cowpies.
Cross-posted to the COVID thread.
That’s all?
It’s a start. According to the thread, the newspaper chain was cutting costs, and Dilbert got cut. He is claiming he’s being cancelled, and doesn’t recognize that his comic strip was never very funny.
Less “funny” than “oh god it’s true” for a slab of the 1990s.
The brain-eater was un-ignorable by the second half of The Dilbert Future. Although there were hints from much earlier that Scott Adams is, in fact, a massive demented jerk with occasional flashes of amusing insight.
Maybe comic strips about a work environment that no longer exists don’t sell with the advertisers?
Why does he hate capitalism?
I saw a twitter reply to Scott Adams that read, “have you tried being funny”?
She actually thought that would work. It did not.
OMG, That claytonluke tweet distills the mindset of misguided anger and general stupidity perfectly.
When I grew up, we didn’t randomly start words with capital letters, and how did spell check not catch “dispare?”
Rise of the intern…
The department’s involvement in these matters began after a Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) student, who was a lawful permanent resident at the time, filed a discrimination complaint with the Civil Rights Division’s Immigrant and Employee Rights Section. The student’s complaint alleged that Capital One Bank restricted a paid internship opportunity only to U.S. citizens when it posted the job on a Georgia Tech job recruitment platform. During its investigation, the department learned about dozens of other facially discriminatory advertisements employers posted on Georgia Tech’s job recruiting platform as well as other platforms operated by colleges across the United States. The department proceeded to open investigations of the 20 employers with which it has already settled, and continues to investigate additional employers.
