this is an interesting tempest in a teapot don't you think?
i wonder why it's happening (and this is said as a straightforward question and not in that annoying tone of "i've got a secret..") because it seems indirectly motivated--by which i mean that the cartoon is problematic for reasons beyond it's yawn-inducing stupidity from a Highly Motivated Angle. at the same time, it seems that there's an absurdity to this that makes me wonder if this whole controversy started out as a prank of some kind.
it's strange how on the net micro-scandals are like rumors in that they arrive without seeming to come from anywhere, like the busy busy machinery itself generates them.
this one i'd be curious to know the origin of.
