This comic has to be the most blatant, in your face, racist piece of garbage ever published in goComics, outside of a comment. Was it necessary to draw the most disgusting stereotypical Native American’s he could conjure in order to make his point?
The Native American images don’t even help him make his point. They’re just there for shock value.
Work like this has no place in this forum. It should be removed and Beckom warned or given a suspension. This is not a free speech matter. When speech resorts to portraying negative social stereotypes it is has sunk below social acceptability.
John Wayne on taking the land from native Americans; “WAYNE: I don’t feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from them, if that’s what you’re asking. Our so-called stealing of this country from them was just a matter of survival. There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves”. Oddly, the current crop of conservatives don’t seem to feel the same way about immigrants.
With all the crap going on in this country, as well as the rest of the world, for the life of me I can’t see why anyone would care about what Ben and Jerry say.
Isn’t it funny how Ben & Jerry virtue signal about returning the land but when actual Native Americans, with an actual claim show up and point it out that Ben & Jerry suddenly get amnesia and object?
WOKE = means that someone is informed, educated and conscious of social injustice and racial inequality. For Repubs WOKE means whatever fits their narrative at the time.
