I had someone steel this and change “butts” to “Christian” and weirdly enough, lengthen my skirt. Kept the flame boots, but no short skirts.

      Because it’s a short comic, it doesn’t have the time to go into the nuances. One word has a long history of being used to dehumanize an “other” group and the other just a word for a body part. If body parts offend you as much as racial slurs, you may have your own issues.

        Still missing the point

        If this logic can be used to defend race hate, then maybe the logic isn’t sound

        Also, if the issue is too nuanced for you to convey in a short comic, maybe don’t make a short comic about it

        I’m gonna need you to engage in just a little more abstract thinking for me. I’m not talking about racism either.

        Let’s try another thing instead: “Got hates fags”

        How about: “Jews did 9/11”

        It’s pretty easy to say “free speech! I can say whatever I like!! I’m not responsible for your hurt feelings!” without any nuance, but speech is a bit more complicated than that.
