@pettanko @anemone @vriska the main thing to consider is that because the left has gone further to the left it has left a lot of classic liberals more or less identifying with the right, which has become more lenient over time.

@pettanko @anemone @vriska I think that group is mainly the older boomer cons, in and out of office, but even then I've seen a good amount of them come around over the years too. Anecdotes, I know, but that's really all either of us have.

@anemone @vriska I would wager to say a massive amount of the right is not the same as the right in the 80s and 90s that was all about the satanic panic and violent video games shit. Myself and pretty much all the guys I know irl would have been considered liberals 20 years ago.

Unlike what the right censored back then, and what the left began to censor, what is being taken action against right now is not benign. It is pulling back the curtain on extremist viewpoints that wish death on a major portion of the population. I think that's a little different.

That being said, if anyone has a full clip of exactly what Jimmy said, I would love to see it. I don't know what was said exactly. There is such a thing as dark, edgy humor and if that is what he's getting in trouble for that's a different thing entirely. Poor taste, but still.

@Humpleupagus @anemone @vriska "oh, you need to have principles! Don't cancel the people who canceled you for far less than celebrating someone's assassination and saying they deserved it!"

It's this kind of shit that we have been putting up with to hold on to our principles for a very long time. It hasn't worked, clearly. Things continue to get worse because the principles are not the same across the board.

@vriska @anemone I love attacking my enemies with the same thing I've been attacked with. And yes I literally have personally experienced it. I won't ever throw the first stone but I'll enjoy throwing it back.

@Vo @Forestofenchantment you have to get the friends who are autistic about normie stuff
I have an autistic buddy who is crazy with movie trivia because he spends so much time watching movies and finding out about all the behind the scenes stuff

A quick announcement regarding this character.

As you may already know, she's missing a leg and I happen to have a serious personal phobia-thing regarding missing limbs. Like...I don't like seeing them at.
So, I'm willing to draw her as long as her legs are not visible, like this drawing.

I apologize if I let anyone down with this decision and thank you for understanding!
