    This Noel de le Pen sure has an interesting body of work.

    Even has a comic showing an interracial couple where a black man is depicted as a gorilla.

    Finding common cause with them should tell you something about your stance.

      This argument is blatantly fallacious. If Alex Jones thinks the government is filled with pedophiles, the fact that he’s an idiot doesn’t make him wrong on that point: it damn sure doesn’t make everyone who agrees with Alex wrong. This is a guilty by association fallacy, a type of ad hominem.

      The fact that people are upvoting your ad hominem because it confirms their previously held opinion is, ironically, the exact complaint I had about Pizzacake comics. No one cares about whether it’s a good argument/comic, they will upvote regardless.

      In which case I’m wasting my time. These comments are just a popularity contest for opinions, no one cares about the substance.

        Ultimately you’re attacking a person who puts out content supporting human rights, which is why the best criticism you could muster was from a neo nazi.
