Just a reminder that Dilbert creator Scott Adams is a racist conservative bigot
Oh no, not again.
edit: I simply wish to enjoy comics, and I hope others can enjoy them too, without having to do a full background check on the author of the comic, keeping the community simple and nice. This should be like a library of good comics.
I understand your desire, but life does not exist in a vacuum. While death of the artist may be easy for you, it is not as simple of an equation for others, especially when said author still lives and benefits monetarily from their creation. And yes, I think we have some culpability even in what we share for free, as keeping them culturally relevant allows their benefits and influence to continue.
Personally, I was a big Dilbert fan; my parents used to gift me a new Dilbert calendar annually and I subscribed to the Washington Post for years in no small part so I could read the weekly Dilbert strip. So I’ll admit it, I take this particular betrayal a little personally. Finding out that Scott Adams was a racist bag of shit felt like hearing that my favorite uncle was actually an non-convicted rapist.
For what it’s worth though, I am sorry that Scott Adam’s gross personal abhorrent opinions get in the way of enjoying your silly office humor comic strip, sincerely.
Not again? Last time was stonetoss. If you are this disconnected maybe do a quick “is this artist a well known bigot” web search before posting from here on.
His racism and abhorrent views have leaked into his content, there is no separating the art from the artist here.
I know about his racist rants, do you have some examples of affected comics? Too many unrelated results on Google
