Again, if your reaction to a comic pointing out that these atrocities have gone on longer than just the two latest killings is to take it personally and get defensive over it, if your reaction is “Well fuck me, then”, I think that says more about you than it does about the comic.

I’m simply pointing out that people have been aware of the problem and upset about it for a long time. But that’s inconvenient to the narrative you’re trying to push, so you keep ignoring it whenever I mention that.

The problem with the comic isn’t that it pointed out that there have been more than just two murders. The problem is that it painted an entire race of people (who have diverse worldviews and opinions) with the same broad brush, and uses that generalization to create a strawman argument, i.e. “white people don’t care when non-whites get murdered,” and you continue to refuse to acknowledge that not only is that counter-factual, but it’s also counter-productive (and racist).

And then you not-so-subtly insinuate that I must be racist if I have a problem with it? You’re so transparent.

That isn’t what I said.

It’s called subtext, and it’s not subtle.
