    Is this the guy who makes alt right comics?

    Edit: yeah, it’s George Alexopoulos. They’re a good artist, but they’re pretty nasty. I wouldn’t post their stuff.

      I’ve seen a few great Linux memes with this, but I think the biggest insult would be for people to use it as a template for things he doesn’t believe in.

      Idk, I find his comics to be the quintessential example of “so bad it’s good”. By some great cosmic irony, nobody can satirize his views better than he can.

      I never knew why people need to conflate the personality or political opinions of the artist with the art they make.

      In my opinion, even if the artist is a terrible human being they can still produce some good art. And even if the art they produce is crap, it can still prove valuable, as it can be parodied, modified, transformed or mocked.

        Are you ignoring the fact that the artist in question specifically makes anti-left propoganda? Like it’s literally their entire identity to try (and fail) to make fun of leftist politics
