Maybe everyone should be barred from owning a business. Like, let’s end the present state of things. Just don’t make it dependent on cultural/racial categories lol
Also this comic doesn’t prescribe a stance on Chanel’s beliefs. That’s funny.
The comic does, you’re only missing the very clear subtext here because you don’t have the context for the joke.
As a fashion designer, Coco Chanel’s perspective on accessorizing is, to paraphrase, “look at yourself in the mirror before you go out and pick an accessory to take off and leave at home.”
The fact that they’re being encouraged to disregard a Nazi fashionista’s signature accessory advice and to be “extra” instead is a very clear rejection of Chanel’s beliefs.
Media literacy award goes to you.
Edit: I mean this in a mocking way, don’t take this as a concession, don’t upvote it when agreeing in serious
You shouldn’t be snarky to someone when they had to explain the joke to you
I shouldn’t be anything, least of which lectured on a simple set up and punchline based on a popular quote that is probably misattributed anyway. Everyone understood it.
I didn’t understand it. I dont even see the comic on my app.
It got removed, it was one of those unfunny moralistic webtoons with a very simple setup and punchline. Basically repeating a no shit sherlock sort of deal, like saying the earth is round among physicists.
You didn’t, you thought the artist didn’t have anything to say about Nazis. XD
My point was about ambiguity. I said nothing about the artist’s intent.
It isn’t ambiguous at all for people who have a clue
The comic flippantly disregards Chanel’s advice re: accessories based on the premise that because she was a Nazi collaborator her opinions, and those influenced by them, can and should be ignored.
If that is too nuanced for you to be able to determine a stance then there’s no hope for you.

Mao said that I should shit when I need to. Should I now hold my shit in because Mao made crazed mistakes or was emblematic of a movement that was not exactly comfortable to those in the states and most of europe? What a stupid fucking line of reasoning.

Regard the reply to your first paragraph. I made it even more “nuanced”, bullshit appeal anyway.

Do you honestly need the comic to explicitly spell out their stance and/or hold your hand through reading between the lines to figure it out yourself? I think this is more of a reading comprehension problem rather than a failure on the artist’s part, no offense.

It’s not. If I was a Nazi, I could post this comic with glee.
Yes it is. Because nazis have very little reading comprehension.
If you think that anyone who is “more” than just a conservative is stupid or at the very least badly read, then boy do I have news for you. You are underestimating how many ultra strategical 4-D chess players exist within the reactionary political scene. You are one Matrix room away from meeting them. I know this because I’ve made such acquaintances (unfortunately). You are underestimating the mental calculus needed for re-implementing systems of forced labour and expansionist militarism. I personally doubt that 99.5% percent of people could take on someone like Stephen Miller on the level of rhetoric and planning.
What exactly is your point, here? Are you suggesting a comic about gay women and jewelry is by a Nazi? What are you getting at?
And btw, ‘collaborator’ in this context is usually a negative connotation unless she’s talking about a Nazi fashion project.

None, You suggest I ought to positively have one, but I can just say whatever I want. I never said that it was by a Nazi, I was if anything hinting at its ambiguity.

That woman wasn’t just a collaborator. She was deep in the shit. Also what do you mean by negative, the comic is just stating a plain fact. You make it negative, a Nazi would make it positive.
Someone ”being a collaborator" is a negative phrase, just like being Infamous is being famous for bad things. No one calls someone a collaborator positively. “In collaboration,” or “we collaborated” are innocent. “A collaborator,” usually an accusation of being complicit in a crime.
Sure bud.
“You can tell how smart someone is by how they play this board game”
Of course you think that, you’re twelve
Missed the point award. Never mind, I am talking to someone who would rather waste time on tabloid anti-Epsteinism than on actually comprehending anything.
tabloid anti-Epsteinism
oh so you’re a pedophile
I love how the Goth barista was so popular she became a recurring character
I’ve only ever seen her working at WcDonald’s. Is she a barista, too?
wcdonalds workers are baristas when it’s coffee time
My bad I thought she was a barista. I may have been crossing the streams with a different meme.
Youre rude to the goth barista because you hate service employees. I am rude to her because I want her to spit in my drink. We are not the same.
I’m missing something. What did number 26 do to deserve that?
I think it’s just a general joke about how sometimes fast food can be extremely frustrating like that with no clear reason
It’s just a joke about how when that happens (typically because the order after yours is smaller and was done sooner), it feels like a “fuck you”.

They both seem lovely and fuck Coco Chanel.
But also, why is the girl on the left wearing a lamp-shade for a skirt?
Cause it’s easier to hide a gun holster in than a regular skirt
