Dickshit MAGAt cowboy cartoonist think NYC is still in the 1970s.

He can go fuck himself.

[–] Phegan@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago

This is propaganda. The new York subways are safe.

Alt right trash

Just go to a racist town in one of the southern states. Follow some cops around

How are people upvoting this alt-right trash?

Here’s another comic by the same author

[–] regdog@lemmy.world 40 points 2 days ago (10 children)

Too bad to hear about the author. I found the comic itself to be kind of funny in an absurd way.

But know that I know what his intentions are it is time to give the author the "stone toss" treatment.

That's not Trump... That's... Giorno Giovanna?

That Trump comic is still kinda funny in a lolsob kind-of way. Like, I could imagine someone who does call themselves woke making it as well. It's still saying a criminal got to be president, so...

Well, from my perspective:

  1. Comic is funny
  2. I have no context of who the author is or what the author did
  3. It makes me feel superior about the Hong Kong mass transit railway system /hj

I have no context of who the author is or what the author did

Their usage of "woke" in the name is a clue

[–] fritobugger2017@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago (14 children)

Your ignorance shows. You'd have more luck catching a good fight at a redneck bar for free than on the NYC subway.

Thanks for the heads-up.

This feels like the scared, naive, suburbanite's take on cities and public transit. Like, do you really think a system with 3 million daily riders has constant brawls?

[–] pc486@sh.itjust.works 79 points 2 days ago (3 children)

It's a comic from WokelyCorrect. I'd be surprised if they even know how to ride transit.

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 88 points 2 days ago

Oof I didn't even notice the author

I like making people laugh & I dislike Woke politics. So I made these comics for us to laugh at Woke politics together and push back against its stupidities. I will stop mocking when it leaves us alone.

Author seems to be an absolute idiot.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

I legit thought the name was satire, like The SoyPill on YouTube.

Wow, it turns out he's actually serious. Jeez.

Drawing comics at night to fight wokeness

I thought it was a sarcastic comics regarding what's happening in Washington :o

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is sound transit or the DC metro having lots of fights?

[–] Bogasse@lemmy.ml 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I was thinking of Trump deploying the national guard because he claims the city is a total mess / war zone.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

Ah, ok DC. Sorry I live in a country so monumentally stupid that we named a state after the guy we'd already named our capital after and this causes regular confusion if you have to deal with both with any frequency.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 42 points 2 days ago (2 children)

But the TV said it does! I better go get in my big emotional support truck and sit in traffic instead!

I don't remember actually seeing a fight in public transit in the US. Public schools, however... 👀 (There's like a fight every day in my highschool)

Having ridden the subway for like 20 years, I'm a little pissed that I didn't get any shows for my ticket price.

I went to wrestlemania 18 at the Toronto skydome, $75 for great mid seats. I stopped watching wrestling 20 years ago but I wanted to take my brother for old times sake, $400 for the same type of seats for a lower show. I don’t know how people afford to go to anything anymore. Going to a restaurant now costs as much as it used to cost to have a concert night

[–] stormeuh@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Consolidation in real-estate and the entertainment industry are why. In real-estate it leads to higher rents and mortgages, which for restaurants makes the location more expensive, but also the staff because they need to make rent as well. In entertainment it's all just ticketmaster, which owns venues and the ticketing system. That makes them able to double dip on every ticket, since they can charge exorbitant rents for event locations, and also take IIRC a 30% fee on every ticket sold.

Damn the only thing unbelievable in this comic is the cost of riding the subway. Is it really that cheap?

[–] SlightlyNormal@lemmy.world 74 points 2 days ago (9 children)

Subway and most buses $2.90 a ride, and if you use the same payment method it has a maximum combined fare of $34 per week. That means that if you pay for 12 rides, any more rides are free within a 7 day period.

All I see here is someone who doesn't ride transit.
