[a green flag with a leaf stands above an utopian green city with vegetation and clean energy]
Greenists believe that the world should be a better place for green people, and everyone else too
[an orange fascist-looking star in a gear logo stands above a bleak concrete city]
Orangites believe that the world should only have orange people, and that all greens should be hung
[an orange character speaks smugly, in a bedroom that contains an orangite logo and a greenist/orangite flag]
Me?
I’m a greenist-orangite,
why do you ask?

Looks a lot like slop
I’m pretty sure it’s a Paint picture. You can see the curved line tool was used.
Good catch, I do draw in MSPaint :)
this is any coorporation ever
Paradox of tolerance
Uh… no? This comic has absolutely nothing to do with the paradox of tolerance.
Care to explain why you think that?
My dad is orange and my mother is green.
Yes, my father is orange and my mom is green. That means I get my solar panels from a forced labour camp.
I’m socially greenist and fiscally orangite
Spoiler, orangites are also shit for the colorconomy.
The greenists would like to help the homeless and feed the needy after they block an industry and remove those dirty jobs, if only it didnt ruin the character of the neighborhood.
Person A: “2+2=4”
Person B: “2+2=6”
‘Centrist’: “Fellas, calm down! Can’t we compromise and agree 2+2=5?”This person is literally saying there’s no difference between 5 and 6. They’re basically an orangite in practice, because math.
In case you libtards don’t understand:
If I had
2 ambien and 2 bottles of whiskey
How did I get 6 felonies?
That’s pure skill. You are amazing at converting Ambien and whiskey to felonies.
Possibly the best turnaround for this exchange I’ve seen. Congrats.
150% is fantastic efficiency
EU politics: “We promise to establish robust processes for developing a common agreement on the result of 2+2 and will reconvene to assess progress, in 2+2 years.”
The Greenist isn’t green enough. I’m not voting to send a message they need to earn my vote.
“This orange looks more green than the other orange, I’m going to vote for it and call myself a greenist.”
“Oh why is everything still orange? I voted for the green shade of orange!”
So you’re choosing less green. Got it.
You literally are in the third panel.
The third panel is a centrist. It is not someone who is so green that nothing is green enough for them.
I’m mocking the leftists who flooded Lemmy with their “don’t vote for Kamala” message.
Exactly. You are the green/orange in the third panel, complaining about being told you’re too orange to be green.
You seem to have not understood the comic
And you’re clearly the second panel because of your complete inability to understand basic concepts
…The irony of this reply is fucking painful.
… Think you missed the words: “world” and “everybody else”
No I didn’t. Extreme Greenists will be telling everyone in 3 years to not vote for Mamdani because of the police killing citizens that happened under his term.
Its not about police killing per se its more so the lack of accountability in police killings, since it’s unavoidable shouldn’t every police shooting have some kind of scrutiny. That’s the issue.
That’s because you aren’t an extremist.
The extremists wouldn’t vote for Obama because he killed some people while ignoring that he killed less than any other President in the last 50 years. In 3 years it will be “Mamdani the citizen murderer” while ignoring that ( I expect ) he’ll have less deaths than any modern mayor.
I think you’re fighting against some super niche extremists then. And if they are so niche why are they living rent free in your head?
Green: “We think everyone should exist peacefully together.”
Orange: “We believe you should all be shot!”
This shithead: “Why don’t you two find a way to meet in the middle?”
Oranges could all get shot and Greens live peacefully together, instead of the extremist proposition by Greens for them both to peacefully exist together.
Man it’s sometimes awkward being an orange, those fucking orangites give us all a bad name, but now a lot of greenists think I’m one of them. It sucks because I’m a greenist but seeing a lot of hate towards orange people because of those orangists hurts a lot.
I know that there’s a lot of history of orange people oppressing green people but I feel that greenists hating orange people is hypocritical and antithetical to the belief system, but any time anyone says it’s not cool everyone jumps in going “just like an orange, saying ‘that’s not like me!’”. That stuff is even being used by orangites as a recruitment tool for young oranges, saying “see? They hate you!”. We greenists need to stop it but it’s so cathartic to some green people who have felt so oppressed by the orangites that they refuse to.
Greenists have the right idea, and I’m not going to stop being one, but seeing the same hate from my own side makes it hard.
I’m a centrist, a down-to-earth person, I believe that the truth is always somewhere in the middle! 🤡
Yeah, in the middle. Only some people should be shot.
I mean this is largely the consensus position in most societies today. Unfortunately.
Billionaires?
Nah, I want them stripped of everything they own and must work menial jobs making what they paid their lowest earning employee for the rest of their natural life.
I would prefer establishing a non capitalistic society and letting them keep all of their money - and nothing else. Let them eat cash.
A non-capitalist society doesn’t mean a moneyless society.
Same, but I want them working even harder jobs for unemployed pay.
They only got half their lives left, gotta make it worse for whatever time they got.
Only after instituting a robust death tax
So… brown?
Oh, because of the flag I thought this was a satire of anarcho-communism, since commie states massacred anarchists
The “communism” in anarcho-communism much predates these states.
I think it is? The only other ideology would be anarcho-capitalism (lol), but a star on a gear as symbology would seem to preclude that. All in, it’s not a very coherent comic.
I thought the obvious subject was National Socialism. The OP uses orange for fascists in their comics.
That would make perfect sense if it wasn’t for the signs pointing in other directions: The star on a gear is very reminiscent of communist imagery, the green/orange flag is a reskin of the anarcho-communist flag (yes, there are other variants for other kinds of anarchist, but they’re even less relevant than anarcho-communists), and the naming format (greenist-orangeite) is more reminiscent of “anarcho-communist” than the Nazi formulation of “National Socialist” or the anarcho-nazi formulation of “National Anarchist.” I can only see this being about communists and anarcho-communists from a disgruntled anarchist of some type. Perhaps a solarpunk guy.
The symbolism gave me the same impression (and I was going to argue something about anarcho-communism having nothing to do with bolshevik bullshit), but then I checked the site and the author uses orange for fascism and has positive stuff about communism.
Interesting because factions in Belfast use those exact colors.
I was going to say, this is why the Irish flag looks the way it does
Green people still elevating themselves above others though
This is why people justify siding with Orange. “They’re saying some lives matter more than others!”

“Both sides are bad!”
“Extreme _non_violence is just as bad as extreme violence!”
What we need is a healthy mix of green and orange. A pleasing green poop green
