reminder reagan was the devil
>Someone accuses Willis of editing strips to make Mary worse.
>Willis bans them and ensures he has last word.
Does he realize this behavior supports the idea he edits thing?
>>83722559
Wait, christians support Reagan? What is the connection?
>>83722991
>Someone accuses Willis of editing strips to make Mary worse.
what? it's not reality tv, he's setting up this stuff for her to look in the wrong for jokes and what not.
>>83723054
I've not done much reading yet on his campaign/administration but I'm pretty sure it was under Reagan when the US republicans got entangled with the evangelical community.
>>83723133
The common theory is after Willis had to deal with people sympathizing with Mary way back in January, he's gon back and edited her dialog to make her worse despite swearing up and down he'd never do that.
>>83723133
Retconing a character to look more incorrect is always a cheap too. It means you're not willing to stand behind your writing
And yes there's a difference between changing a typo and changing a line of dialog.
>>83723163
ooooooooooooh, retroactively editing. i got ya. that's fucked up.
i mean inserting new flashbacks to show her being shitty is hack but like you're trying!! don't change your archives like that
>>83722559
>Feminist = "We can do it" poster
>Religious Conservative = "more of him less me" shirt
It's like scalie schoolie humor, but unintentionall
>>83722559
>Those anime drawings.
I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand my main problem with Mary is that she has been too sympathetic to be a convincing villian. On the other hand this is so heavy handed it hurts.
>>83722559
>I don't like this candidate for having the hypocrisy to claim the title "family values candidate" without actually having her own family
>But you like Ronald Reagan and he was divorced!
People like Willis believe this sort of thing is a good counter-argument
>>83723551
You will never see Mary draw kawaii Reagon
>>83722559
why does Mary's bad anime drawings look more appealing than Willis' actual drawing style?
>>83722591
This, Reagan was a selfish man, who knowingly stayed in office as his mental abilities began deteriorating, and engaged in many illegal and immoral plots from contra cartels to blowing money of Star Wars.
>>83723198
>>83723163
We got any proof of this? Or do you mean he's editing within his buffer so we never saw the oriignals?
>>83724222
Cause they don't have those shitty beady eyes .
>>83722591
We got Jem because of him, Reagen is GOD.
>>83724829
He banned someone for suggesting it. If he had nothing to hide why not just laugh it off?
>>83724076
Reagan was again the one who swept in evangelical and conservatives into the same tent
>>83724238
I don't like bringing up the possiblities of his mental deterioration just because there's more worse stuff and I dunno how proven it was that his mental state was not at 100%
>>83724829
>editing within his buffer
honestly i just consider that rewriting/revising
>>83722559
Just pointing out that the argument is not "she is into family values" or how relevant that is to her, but that Robin is a fraud.
It's not really equivalent with Ronald Reagan since he never made such claims.
And I almost got banned for making an Assigned Male general.
>>83725051
>honestly i just consider that rewriting/revising
That's fine, but anytime someone suggests he edited Mary's dialog to ensure that she is more unlikable than sympathetic, he throws a hissy fit.so it's fun to do.
>>83722559
>those adorable drawings
Mary obviously has plenty of joy in her life but we only ever see her angry. I want to see Mary smile.Also this means she wants to get married young, can she get more perfect?
>>83725010
Because he's a thin-skinned sperg faggot who interprets any criticism, constructive or otherwise, as an attack on his person from literal agents of evil and the patriarchy.
>>83725960
>literal agents of evil and the patriarchy.
I wish I had gotten a badge when I joined up.
>>83722591
Why doesn't Roz just rape Mary?
>>83726048
Because my dick would explode.
>>83726155
Ooh, what if it becomes hentai rape?
>No, Roz, no!
>But Mary, you're already so wet. And what's this under your mattress? A crucifix dildo?!
Three pages later:
>OH GOD, YES, ROZ! FUCK MY VIRGIN WOMB IN THE NAME OF THE LORD!!
>>83726442
Hentai rape is the only thing that Mary knows and expects. Roz is nonplussed.
>>83726066
Is this an edit? Because if not, holy shit, is the artist on suicide watch? I mean, AM is clearly the product of someone who's lost touch with consensus reality, but this is...beyond that.
>>83726654
If that's an edit, that's incredibly fucking tame compared to the actual comic
>>83722591
How?
The Anti-Christ is the son of the devil and Obama's not white enough to be Reagan's son.
>>83726654
Getting TRIGGERED over the "small things" (read: imaginary, meaningless "microaggressions") to the point of considering suicide is something I'd expect from the author tb'h.
>>83725722
>spoiler
well hell why didn't ya just tell me that
>>83722591
>open-borders immigration
>free trade
>supporting the "MUH ISRAEL PROPHECY" evangelicals
Even /pol/ agrees!
Is everyone just going to talk about Reagan now?
>>83726951
Most of AM is about the hugbox not being enough of a hugbox, therefore the artist is compelled to complain at you for not being inclusive enough. The impression I get is that the artist thinks this will change something, which is at odds with being suicidally depressed about how nothing will ever change.
Of course I don't pretend to understand the "thought" process that goes into any of this shit.

Do you think they have a tape line on the floor and walls to cut off the feminist and conservative sides of the room?
>>83728559
only cool liberals can use sarcasm in doa
conservatards can only speak stupidly or hatefully
>>83728559
There was no sarcastic statement about liking Reagan.
>>83726951
The author just need to trade those micro-aggressions for a macro-aggression against those that wrong them.
>>83728723
maybe it got lost in translationto me
"what monster isn't?" wouldn't imply only monsters like reagan
>>83728339
The strip gets extra weird when the main character encounters other LBGT kids that aren't as obsessed over The Issues as her, and she flips out that they Just Don't Get It.
Like how the boy who dresses as a girl but still a boy threatens her existence on an intrinsic level.
>>83728791
It actually means the opposite. She's saying only a horrible monster wouldn't love Reagan. He's kind of a saint in the eyes of some people.
I hate to agree with Willis but Regan was kinda bad, not because of Reganomics though. Regan just had a kinda shitty foreign policy. I'm pretty sure the only reason he's remembered as fondly as he is is because a pedophile shot him to impress Jodie Foster. Kinda like JFK who honestly did a lot more dead than he ever did when he was a live.
>>83728976
There's no problem with agreeing on this point. Reagan was really, really shitty. He may only be the second-place worst when compared to Woodrow Wilson, but he's definitely in the running for awful Presidents.
>>83728804
Over/under on AM addressing the Muslim question?
>>83729284
I agree, but I also think Nixon was one of the best if not just because of Henry Kissinger and the Miracle of Chile, so we're probably playing on different standards.
>>83729284
>Woodrow Wilson
>worst of all time
James Buchanan would like a word with you.
>>83731106
James Buchanan gets too much hate, IMO. Yes, he made some bad decisions WRT sitting on the north/south divide and hoping it would blow over, but my guess is that he was worried that any sort or action on his part would lead to what wound up happening anyway. He erred on the side of caution, and even if we condemn him in hindsight, it would be hard to fault him at the time.
>>83731195
You know he was gay, right?Anyone so deluded as to think Buchanan was on the right side of things has to be a homophobe. Prove me wrong.
>>83731408
Eh, there's not really any solid evidence for that, and I've obviously never met the man, so my gay-dar probably wouldn't be any use. Obviously yes we dislike Buchanan now thanks to hindsight, but I'm just pointing out that he was in a difficult situation and did what he could. Same with Neville Chamberlain, really.
>>83728687
Nah, it would be too obvious (one half of the room is painted pink and the other with the colors of the flag)
isn't Reagan remembered well because he was in charge during the 80s
Capitalism became Americas new religion
Communism started falling

But they voted overwhelmingly for the other party in the representative elections
Why?

>tfw Reagan is polarizing now but liked very much during his presidency even getting democratic support
Funny how the times change
>>83732212
America is like a sewer. There's a thousand layers, and all of them are shit.
>>83732212
gotta keep things interesting
>>83732212
It makes a lot more sense when you think about states and how the electoral college works.
There are more people in bigger, democratic states, but there are a lot of little Republican ones. The little Republican states get their representation in congress and shit, when they elect their representative for that singular state.
But when it comes strictly to national elections, they're drowned out by the bigger, more populated states. Which makes sense because they're more populated.
so Mary is officially the main character after nao right?
>>83732374
What I never liked is the ellocation of electoral college votes
If 50.1% of a state votes for a candidate they get all the electoral votes
It should be proportional
>>83732257
It's almost entirely because 1. We didn't know or understand all the bad shit the dude was doing and 2. We didn't know what the longterm ramifications of some of the shit he did would be
It's the same with all presidents that do a lot of stuff

This is the end.
Patreanon here, sorry but here's today strip, and then I'll drop tomorrow's in like a hour and a half.

Joyce is the single, shining light in this desolate camp of straw.
>>83733316
Yeah, if this comic became Joyce/Joe, Mary/Carla, and Sal/Marcie while Amber, Becky, and Roz went away forever I'd be 110% into that.
>>83733395
Willis actually mentioned long ago that Joe and Joyce had the best chemistry in roomies so I really hope he does more with them. Then maybe it can be the corn in the lump of shit of a comic.

Willis needs to do what Andrew Hussie did and include typing quirks for characters. Not so much to give them visual flavor, but rather because as it is, it seems as if the characters are just talking out loud. There's nothing to imply that they're texting, like shorthand and abbreviations.
They're teens; they shouldn't necessarily have perfect punctuation.
>>83736469
So you pay willis to see the strips a day early?
>>83733316
I laughed.
You win this time, Willis.
>>83736469
Joe is GOAT bro.
Can't wait to see how Becky fucks this up.

Probably depends on the denomination, but in general Christians are unhappy with divorces.

Joe/Joyce is 100% confirmed if Joe comes to pick Joyce and That Becky up after the church service turns into a disaster.
>>83741430
Well, until they need one, anyway.
>>83741216
Jesus is actually pretty hard on divorce. Catholics are "one marriage per lifetime", which is way more hardcore than the protestants, but they're still big on keeping shit together.
>>83742357
However, he will still forgive you.
>>83738133
Nothing can make most of Willis' characters tolerable.
I just mean that it would give them one more layer of development than they currently have. Maybe Joyce can be a character who texts in complete sentences, but Joe generally responds with less finesse and fewer letters.
>>83742630
You know, as a Christian I'm a bit miffed about taking God's forgiveness for granted.
At least Catholics have the entire ceremony with the priest present and he may decide not to grant you the cleansing, he's the one potentially exposing himself to God's wrath. But with protestants it's a prayer and "we cool, God, right?"
It just sounds disingenuous.
What if God decides that it's not cool?
>>83742769
They will never fucking know because god can't or just doesn't talk.
>>83742769
>>83742923
"What if God decides that it's not cool?"
"Well then God should fucking say something."

>>83742769
>What if God decides that it's not cool?
According to them, God is the kind of God who will never decide it's not cool as long as you completely and honestly repent, from the bottom of your heart.
And if you don't, you'll end up in hell.
>>83741216
As an ex-protestant: no, not at all.
Not like you're ex-communicated or something. It's just like most sins: it's wrong, but it happens.
>>83734384
I'm a little disipointed that they don't even mention Wolfwood when they review Trigun. The show has an honest to goodness Christian priest as one of the main characters, who runs an orphanage for small children, and whose last moments were a confession given in a church, and he doesn't even get a shout out on a christian review site.
>>83722559
Her parents aren't divorced, they're marriage was annulled meaning it was never a true marriage in gods eyes, meaning they had two kids out of wedlock. Get your insults straight Willis.

Even Willis is getting in on the editing fun!
>>83742769
At this point who cares, people only follow the parts that are convenient for them and make up parts if there isn't something they need in there. Like using the tale of Onan to be an anti-masturbatory tale.
>>83740365
I used to think I wasn't, but I've been shilling for the Green Party like a motherfucker in order to produce a Hillary-sinking Nader Effect, plus my sideburns risk turning into sidelocks. I'm also getting more and more stingy with my limited cash supply, so that's another cause for concern.
Shit, I should probably get a 23 and me done to find out if I'll ever be able to nut in Tila Tequila after all.
>>83742995
It's actually a pretty good argument. Even if you don't bring up direct conversation, other forms of communication would do.
An all-powerful, all-knowing God would know precisely what has to happen in order for any given person to truly believe in him, and has the capacity to make that happen without interfering with free will. A perfectly benevolent God would include all this in their plan if they didn't want people to go to Hell (or, alternatively, they just wouldn't have a Hell).

It means, "Fuck you, I'm an e-celeb and get to talk like an honest to god retard and have people fawn over me anyway."

What flavor was the Kool-aid?
The Republican response to Trump's candidacy has been the best part of all this primary bullshit.
>>83736469
Holy shit, how does he fuck up with the vast majority of his character, yet manage to make Joe so goddamn based?
>actually supporting Trump
He's literally a conman.
He has sustained himself by destroying businesses. It is very obviously his intention to crash this USA with no survivors, and to jump ship with as much power and wealth as he can get away with.
>>83744043
>liberals actually believe this
lol
But no, regale me about how great Hillary is.
>>83744060
I don't really like Hillary or agree with many of her policies. But she's by far the more competent politician, and she's not a sleazy con-artist.
>>83744078
>she's not a sleazy con-artist.
Fucking hell mate you got a giggle, but really now.
>>83744078
>and she's not a sleazy con-artist.
Oh my god, you can't make this shit up
>>83744078
>she's not a sleazy con-artist.
Want's to start war for profit.
Publicly revealed as corrupt from evidence she tried to delete.
Literally a criminal, she was just given immunity by Obama during the election.

Props to that guy for snagging the email.
>>83744043
Trump's incompetent and sleazy but he's not trying to crash the USA. He wouldn't even have the power to do that. If Trump becomes president he'll probably get nothing done in the end since the GOP and the DNC don't really like him.
>>83743891
>>83743946
but what is he trying to say? "This is totally a bunch of creatures who can only scream and shit themselves"... OH i get now! BRAVO WILLIS, that's fantastic, i'm not even being sarcastic!
>>83726829
Obama is literally a mulatto, and not an especially dark one.
>>83736469
>You're going to be in church right? Is that a safe place?
>It's the safest place I can imagine.
Willis sucks at being subtle about foreshadowing.
The sermon at the Brown's church will be something either vaguely homophobic, encouraging the community to sympathize with Becky's dad, or something else that comes across as another Mary-esque strawman. Becky, being Becky, will say or do something quirky, inappropriate, and disruptive. Huge scene ensues Joyce either blows up at everyone in church or when they get back home and takes her first major steps on an arc where she becomes disillusioned with Christianity and her parents because we all know this is really about Willis venting about his fucking family issues.
>>83744462
The priest will incite the congregation to stone Becky by the city gates.
>>83744557
To be fair, Becky will probably have it coming after she storms the podium to announce yet again that she is a lesbian.
>>83744462
I hate that you're right. You can see Willis' "plot twists" coming from a month away.
>>83741216
>Church of England was literally created so the King could get divorced again
>Also steal all the Catholic Church's land and wealth
Based fat bastard did a pretty good job of making sure we didn't end up like America.
>>83744462
That won't happen, it's too realistic.
Someone will get hit or shot or something. I dunno. Maybe there'll be an evil priest for Amazi-Girl to fight.
>>83743891

Initially his life was not babies at all, but now there is an excessive amount of baby.

The "self-radicalization" brand is pretty handy those in the news industry. They act surprised that someone, after being treated like garbage for 15+ years, would suddenly snap and go commando on everyone around them.
It's a process that ensures both sides get what they want: A perpetual culture war.
>>83745030
>>83736469
I thought Joe was supposed to be a misogynistic pick up artist or some shit. Why is he such a decent guy in these strips?
>>83743974
No Kool-Aid was involved.
More of a soda drinker to be honest.
>>83744462
>yfw they're reading passages from Leviticus
>yfw Becky makes some lesbian related pun with such volume that it could drown out a jet plane taking off
>>83744462
According to his own twitter, (by the way, he's using the ((())) despite not being jewish) the story arc is named after a line from Komm Susser Todd, the song from End of Evangelion.
>>83747780
That's the point of people doing the (()) thing voluntarily to confuse people looking for Jews. Kinda like a Sparticus effect.
>>83747780
>he's using the ((())) despite not being jewish
I love this. It's like deciding the best way to help the Jews in Nazi Germany is to wear a yellow star yourself.
>>83747818
What the fuck is the (()) thing
>>83747839
Apparently Neo-Nazis made some chrome add-on where they could target jewish people by putting (()) around their name.
>>83747872
Well that's just retarded
>>83747901
well yeah it's something neo nazis came up with
>>83747901
Yeah I don't get it, and I get the slacktivist response even less. They could easily change the symbol that points out jews.
>>83747818
But the extension adds them on manually, so if you're looking for Jews you're just gonna see six parentheses instead of three, so it's fucking pointless.
>>83747839
>>83747872
Basically a /pol/ spinoff site's podcast has a running joke where jewish names are pronounced with an echo and in a really nasally voice. The goal is to highlight how overrepresented jews are in the media, business, and politics. Eventually the echo effect was added into text by putting paretheses around the name, like this: (((Stan Lieber)))
So one of the guys from their forums made a chrome/firefox addon that puts ((())) around the names of jews and jewish organizations automatically. It was on the chrome store for a while before the ADL caught wind of it and got it yanked, but the addon is still hosted on the creator's own private server.
TL;DR- /pol/ trolled the shit out of the jews again.
>>83746325
Because Willis seems to have a soft spot for him and he was popular in Its Walky and Shortpacked. As long as he doesn't change him for the whims of the SJWs, I'm happy.
>>83748292
It's a sign that maybe he can be saved.
>>83723133
>it was under Reagan when the US republicans got entangled with the evangelical community.
That was always the case, but Nixon had a policy "don't let the retards sit at the table" (loosely paraphrased) which meant don't give them actual jobs in government or directly shape policy.
>>83748584
another reason why Nixon is one of my favorite presidents
>>83747780

What's this now?
>>83749841
Learn to read.
>>83747999
>>83744462
The sad part is, there's joke potential in having Becky unable to shut up in church, but it'll still be "rar christians r hateful"
>>83747999
Why did they put Jewish names in ooc chat brackets? Does /pol/ do erp too?
>>83749974
>ooc chat brackets
You thought that's what they were? No anon, when someone does that it means they're roleplaying a Jew who was "behind" that character.
>>83725051
Yeah, there's plenty to go after Reagan for without bringing up alzheimer's. That's just a dick move.
Iran-Contra, his administration's complete indifference to the AIDS crisis (the recordings of his press secretary laughing about it when reporters bring it up are chilling), the aforementioned courting of the evangelicals, continuing the southern strategy, demonization of the poor, etc...
I predict that people will notice Becky is back in town and, since Willis writes realistic people with realistic reactions to realistic situations, every churchgoer will give her shit for being a lesbian and putting her father in jail.
>>83750166
>continuing the southern strategy
>a bad thing
that's absolute horse shit. There's a whole block of disenfranchised, apathetic voters who lean towards conservative causes (limited government, state's rights) who felt that their party betrayed them. Why shouldn't the republicans tap into that?
>>83744462
Which makes no damn sense, because whenever this kind of shit goes down, any local group even vaguely connected with the asshole responsible go "Nope, nothing to do with us"
>>83750410
Unless it's islam in which case they go "yeah no, it was totally us, lol"
>>83750250
with the Southern Strategy it's throwing other citizens under the bus
>>83750410
making sense is irrelevant when you got POLITICS! to push
>>83750530
Not really? I mean so far the southern strategy hasn't lead to Jim Crow getting reinstated or anything equally insane.
>>83750455
Are you high?
>>83750776
I believe they were using what's known as "sarcasm".
Inability to identify sarcasm is a sign of autism, anon.
>>83750853
Sarcasm isn't just randomly saying wrong shit. You're communicating something using irony when you're being sarcastic.
There's no joke or anything, it's just an out of nowhere shitpost.

Franklin Pierce beats them all if you ask me, but I think we can all agree that these guys were all unfit for office to some degree.
>>83732070
He's not the best or the worst. He's solid. It's just people's opinions of him that run to extremes.
>>83751861
ehh some where unfit and some fucked up. wilson shoulda been taken out of office once he had the first stroke
>>83732899
If anything, Jackson proves that being a big enough badass can negate any other failings you might possess.
What are the odds that the churchgoers will actually be reasonable and Becky will learn maybe she's going a bit overboard with 'hi guys i'm a lesbian'?
>>83744152
Worst case scenario. He gets elected, and either gets impeached, or fails to get himself re-elected after getting nothing done.
I don't want to see him elected, but these people acting like it would be the end of the world really need to take a step back and put things in perspective.
>>83752102
Many of them have either not voted before or only done so once, but then most people don't care enough to actually study what leaders have been effective in what settings; they mostly care about a few issues and look for policies that help them personally, either directly or idealistically. They'll agree with anything past that as long as it has justification, since few people actually peruse studies or historical events to scrutinize thosepolish.
tl;dr Everyone lacks perspective.
>>83752046
Very slim.
She'll storm the podium and loudly announce her lesbianism into the microphone, then somehow everyone gets mad at Joyce instead of Becky because Becky is too quirky for consequences.
>>83752347
>few people actually peruse studies or historical events to scrutinize thosepolish
Yeah, if they looked hard enough they'd see everything is Poland's fault. EVERYTHING.
>>83744152
He does have enough power to seriously fuck over illegal immigrants, a lot of whom are only here right now because the Obama administration placed a low priority on deporting women/children/families/etc.... There's a lot more that Immigration and Customs Enforcement could be doing to catch illegals, which Obama is actively discouraging, and Trump says he will actively encourage, and neither one needed Congress' approval to do so.
But yeah, for most of us, Trump's reign will be just like Hillaries.
