I love the ones who argue sanctity of marriage are usually on their 2nd marriage or ooze with infidelity.
2 right-wingers I used to work with...
Person A cheated on his first wife with his now 2nd wife while she was married to his friend, and they had kids out of wedlock together
Person B notoriously cheated on his first wife for years.
Person B's current wife got divorced once for infidelity, had a kid out of wedlock with a different guy, banged her already-married boss at work, conveniently got promoted to his position when he left, screwed around with at least 1 of her subordinates while she then started sleeping with person B.
But yeah, 2 dudes blowing each other is what ruined marriage...
It's short for ectopic pregnancies that are entirely unviable, and will kill the mother,but can't be aborted because that's still murder and "gods will"
I like that if you start at "Sanctity of marriage", something the radical right clearly does not actually value, and work counterclockwise the terms get increasingly vague and meaningless until they completely phone it in with "Etc". What values.
"If robosexual marriage becomes legal, imagine the horrible things that will happen to our children, then imagine we said those things, since we couldn't think of any. As a mother, those things worry me." -Futurama
So I like playing the cinnamon rolls game. Every time you see "marriage" instead read "a common law government contract that bestows rights and responsibilities and formalizes systems of inheritance and power of attorney in cases of incapacity, originally managed by churches because religions were the original governments" and the word sanctity loses all meaning by the end of a discussion with a homophobia
SO I dug a bit and the original is from a comic called Literally where he pokes fun of the word literally being used as its own antonym instead of figuratively.
Specifically he mocks a quote from some dead bigot.
Then maybe they can learn to STFU about LGBTQ since they don't care. I'm good with that. Next time one chirps about it, I'll let them know that they don't care.
Just ask for forgiveness at death or on Sunday and they good, meanwhile they feel they have a pass to be assholes to everyone else. Anyways, that's just my observation. Ever had a argument wit a conservative Christian? Man they go nuts if you ask is that what Jesus would do?
Being honest, only thing I care about is the sanctity of marriage. Tho, for them is the gays not being able to marry for me it's not getting cheated on.
And don't forget for them it's "until death do us part" while it's easy to grow apart, devorce and continue with your life instead of being both miserable because you're not supposed to devorce.
Yeah, many don't. But the extremists do. Like evangelicals usually, sometimes they even go as far as arranged marriages. And sadly the amount of extremists is way too high and they have way too much influence and power in this world.
And yet, if you paint the steamroller a gaudy fake gold color and have it being driven by every conservative you've heard about in the last year, it gets way more true!
I'm an old straight white guy with a pretty normie-looking family, and I know damn well that almost every LGBT+ person out there shares more of my values and gives more of a shit about my marriage than the conservative grifters out there.
Paint the roller red white and blue and call it the FREEDOM ROLLER but the people in front are Gays, non Christians, non whites, legal immigrants and see if the irony shines through
"Help, help, gay people are forcing me to fantasise about gay sex! Help! Help! If they allow gay marriage I won't be able to marry a woman and I'll have to marry a man! Help!"
We splitting hairs but merely drawing comics does not make someone an artist.
Almost every webcomic artist I've ever met is a godsdamned fucking artist, I want to be clear.
One could pretty successfully argue that evoking such strong emotion out of his shitty comics makes them art, but it's convoluted and I'm not an expert in outsider art despite being a practitioner. And it's easy to evoke emotion by s throwing shit. So like, tomato papaya.
Considering they overwhelmingly occupy the statistics of child sex offenders, that’s pretty fucking far from what would be considered a conservative value.
Oh no, not Etc!
Thank you for not overlooking etc! Our plight is and so forth and whatnot, but we won’t be silenced, and what have you!
oh, fk. now i know i'm gonna call it that sometime when talking to a client.
Yeah but if you're talking Linux they're already techy enough to get the joke
This made me giggle. Thanks.
Not my host specific configuration files!!
Are those host specific configuration files in your root partition or are you just happy to see me?
Etc got gayrolled
Dude I am so opening a drag club just so I can pay people out of the gayroll department and they have Dick Fiasco to blame. They'd love that.
But some of my miscellaneous things are etc!
Yep favourite was when I was told queer people have declared war on God. Makes us sound metal as fuck.
Let us not forget "priDEMONth"
prideMOnTH
Ooo I love lamp
In the name of my forefathers who were babtized against their will through force.
You have my sword, it's time for payback.
Stole the fucking RAINBOW!
Sounds like norse god shenanigans, if that's not cool, what is?
The power bottoms really do a lot of the heavy lifting. I believe in you power bottoms! ❤️
Why does this look like The Oatmeal?
It is from his comic about the word 'literally'.
Thank you for providing that link.
Because it is the Oatmeal and they just slapped text on the top to suggest otherwise
Was gonna say, I had the gay roller shirt in the aughts
The gays are coming for your /etc folder!
Nooooo plz tell them to at least leave /var/www
What are you on about? That's an entirely different directory.
nah theyre in my ~/Homework folder
Clearly they're in /lib
I want your /srv/stash folder

And they love the idea of watching two women fucking
So do a lot of women.
Who doesn't ?
Right-wingers: "Fidelity for my wife but not for me"
or they are in sham marriages themselves.
omg they actually put etc
Christian "values", traditional "values", "etc"
It's short for ectopic pregnancies that are entirely unviable, and will kill the mother,but can't be aborted because that's still murder and "gods will"
specifically straight white, christian values, adding alitle conservatism in it.
And some strands are worse than others, like the US strand of the religion
I like that if you start at "Sanctity of marriage", something the radical right clearly does not actually value, and work counterclockwise the terms get increasingly vague and meaningless until they completely phone it in with "Etc". What values.

Lol
The worst of all, "etc!"
Is The Oatmeal (the creator of this comic) a right winger? Everything I know about him is saying otherwise.
Nah it was him taking the piss outta fallwell and people who overuse the word literally
Look how happy the steamrollerers are
I am currently wearing Gayroller 2000 on a t-shirt!
Homosexual Steamroller, band name, dibs.
No, he publicly stated this was a alteration of his work https://www.facebook.com/share/1Dww8fX5ZM/
The Oatmeal comic was still created as a reaction to an incredibly homophobic comment from an extreme right winger before he died.
So even though it's an alteration, it's still exactly how the comic was originally designed.
Original:
I get what you're saying, but there's something funny about your comment that is basically saying "even though it's different, it's the same."
The Gayroller of Theseus.
How gay do we need to make the operator before we horseshoe this
SO I dug a bit and the original is from a comic called Literally where he pokes fun of the word literally being used as its own antonym instead of figuratively.
Specifically he mocks a quote from some dead bigot.
Having never met the dude but as an expert on webcomics i can authoritatively say no they are not.
What good is all that studying if you can't stick up for the allies too
I would offer that conservatives have done more to destroy traditional values and the sanctity of marriage than the LGBT crowd.
Nah, three marriages == 3× the sanctity. It's just math.
In order to even engage them with that fact you'd have to live in the same reality unfortunately
Let me translate: oppression, abuse, inequality, racism, misogyny, pedophilia.
Traditional values:
You'll take my Etc from my cold dead hands!
Can I have a go on the gayroller next?
It's my turn, but you can sit on my lap.
Is that an open invitation or do we have to take turns
Whatever you want, babe <3
Etc
Oh no, not et cetera! That encompasses all the other things!
yeah they couldn't even come up with anything how lazy is that
Not my cetera patch I planted so many als. We were going to et so good.
Oh no! Someone think of the Christian values that even Christians don't actually adhere to and just weaponize when it is convenient for them!
So like most values people claim to have?
That's a swing and a miss there, slugger
That's cute, sport.
Erwartet mein Kommen beim ersten Licht des fünften Tages. Bei Sonnenaufgang schaut nach Osten.
I don't really care
Neither do they.
Then maybe they can learn to STFU about LGBTQ since they don't care. I'm good with that. Next time one chirps about it, I'll let them know that they don't care.
Lol christians don't even follow christian values
Just ask for forgiveness at death or on Sunday and they good, meanwhile they feel they have a pass to be assholes to everyone else. Anyways, that's just my observation. Ever had a argument wit a conservative Christian? Man they go nuts if you ask is that what Jesus would do?
Etc. Pride march when??
Being honest, only thing I care about is the sanctity of marriage. Tho, for them is the gays not being able to marry for me it's not getting cheated on.
And don't forget for them it's "until death do us part" while it's easy to grow apart, devorce and continue with your life instead of being both miserable because you're not supposed to devorce.
For who is it "'til death do us part"? The party of serving your cancer-stricken wife divorce papers in her hospital bed?
Isn't that how Christians are married?
Yeah but they don't actually do it
Your mom kept dad's skull too?
Yeah, many don't. But the extremists do. Like evangelicals usually, sometimes they even go as far as arranged marriages. And sadly the amount of extremists is way too high and they have way too much influence and power in this world.
I'm too touch starved to have a healthy conversation on this
Where’s that meme of the badly drawn guy biting his lip?
This one?
In the immortal words of that die who died by crushing: more. Teeth.
The etc is really a "you know what i mean" here.
As in "this cartoon is preaching to the choir". It doesn't make people think or do anything butnnod knowingly.
What a waste of even a little creativity.
Which... Dammit. I have to double check I don't know the illustrator one of my buddies fell down the rabbit hole
Edit upon closer examination this is a poor shop of an oatmeal. The fuck. Oatmeal doesn't stand for this. THIS IS WHY I CARE ABOUT ATTRIBUTION
Don't worry they ripped off the cartoon too
It really whips the llama's ass.
And yet, if you paint the steamroller a gaudy fake gold color and have it being driven by every conservative you've heard about in the last year, it gets way more true!

IDC IF IT'S RIGHT WING OR LEFT WING.
I JUST WANT MEMES THAT WHIP HELLA ASS.
That's the Christian people when the pastor reads from the bible they'll complain he's too woke and leftist.
*edited testing inline strategies learned below
Yes - exactly this!
"Help, help, gay people are forcing me to fantasise about gay sex! Help! Help! If they allow gay marriage I won't be able to marry a woman and I'll have to marry a man! Help!"
(Inlined below for ease of seeing)
How does one master this inline sorcery?
I'm on the regular lemmy web interface. There's a little picture icon just before the capital H above the text box.
Got it.
Checked the raw text the web app generated in your comment.
It adds a ! before the [ in normal markdown links
It inlines images automatically without that, so I thought it just wouldn't inline GIFs, but it just needed a bit of a nudge
Just don’t tell them that there are almost no Christians in Israel.
And what these right wingers always conveniently forget is that their religion only tells THEM what to do, it has no impact on anyone else.
All of these “values” can remain 100% unaffected within themselves, they just want the bigotry of forcibly imposing these “values” on others.
And that’s their problem - they’re screaming bloody murder because their ability to be tyrannical authoritarians is being taken away.
The LEFT will NEVER take AWAY my DARN etc
i got moderated on a discord channel i am in bc a jesus freak didnt like this meme lol
You could easily flip the meme by coloring the roller red, keep the gayroller name (or use prideroller, maybe), and swap out the values text
I am putting that in my pocket
It’s crazy we’re so far apart that this is a good meme for both.
Shit, do they rent that out?
I can maybe take them steam rolling over traditional values and the sanctity of marriage but "etc" too? They've gone too far this time.
Nice idea for a game.
It’s a good advertisement to be gay lol.
What about liberal/progressive conservatism (fiscally conservative, and also socially liberal/progressive)?
I don't think there's a single right wing artist.
Stonetoss is a nazi
We splitting hairs but merely drawing comics does not make someone an artist.
Almost every webcomic artist I've ever met is a godsdamned fucking artist, I want to be clear.

Is that the artist of this comic?
No, this is oatmeal comics
Maybe this guy? I agree you're right in spirit but since 'artist' is broad, there must be some.

Not even Hitler?
He wasn't fascist until he wasn't allowed to be an artist so..
Not wanting a grown man to wiggle his cock around in a child’s face is a terrible conservative value?
wiggling a cock around a child's face is a conservative value, look at all the pedos in the gop and in the church
I love how conservatives immediately reach for the 'think of the children's card, but then immediately treat women and children like shit.
There's nothing wrong with wanting kids to be safe, but implying gay people wave their dangly bits in front of kids is a false accusation at best.
That's a group that should be thinking a little less about children
Yes. It's terrible that conservatives love to wiggle their cock around in a child's face.
Why do you have to make everything political? Not everything is about Trump.
Considering they overwhelmingly occupy the statistics of child sex offenders, that’s pretty fucking far from what would be considered a conservative value.
What’s your stance on christian church leaders?
And where do you think that's happening in the LGBTQI community exactly?
What are you even talking about?
