amazing how this 3,700 year old Babylonian legal code is making more sense than our current justice system
A big reason why I think I became a marxist is bc I read A LOT of Calvin & Hobbes and Bill Watterson really went out of his way to lay the groundwork for teaching people critical analysis. Like take this panel for example:
EVERYTHING one knows about American/Western culture, especially in the late 80's/early 90's, would lead to the logical next line being some form of "Kids These Days Are Succumbing To The Evils Of Satan" or some likewise cheap Reaction™ But then Bill pulls the rug out
He criticizes the "satanic" bands not for some lack of christian morals but because theyre a byproduct of hyperconsumptionist culture. Bill takes no issue with the subject matter bc his issue is knowing its only being done to sell rebellion as a consumer product rather than to say anything truly provocative or inspired.

Queer joy detected!
internet politics and real-world politics have gotten so separated, and pretty soon all this internet weirdness is gonna come crashing into real life and politicians are gonna start throwing around words like “SJW” and “anime communist” and “dark enlightenment” and it’s just gonna be the most ridiculous fucking thing

This fucking post.
It is in some ways, the only piece of evidence I have that there was a time Before.
I wonder if they’re making a big deal of mentioning how the officer that shot a woman in the face 3 times for no reason “was dragged from a car and injured by a suspect last year” so that he can plead big baby wah wah PTSD kicked in and he had no choice but to shoot an innocent woman in the face 3 times. Because it is oh so scary to be an ICE agent and it gives them oh so much trauma and everybody is oh so mean.
