He is, but am I wrong in thinking these comics are punching up at the weasely executives as much as anything?

I dunno, but knowing his background and having the content of one of his comics be a PoC being promoted for nothing other than the color of his skin is pretty sus

I used to read old Dilbert a lot as a kid, like the old 90s cartoons. Those were nerd cringe but at least kinda entertaining and mostly focused on cynicism and satire of the workplace, especially the idiocy of management and marketing. His portrayals of Asok and other minorities was always kinda troublesome.

Haven't read in well over a decade and a half now. Not sure when he went off the rails, but goddamn does he come off like an incel wingnut.

Thats true, but I also read it as a poke at the execs wanting to sweep the problem under the rug, rather than taking an honest look at its root and addressing it. And then theres the guy at the end absurdly distraught that someone has been raised up to his level.

That could of course all be secondary to Scott Adams purpose, or possibly even unintentional, and youre right he doesnt really deserve the benefit of the doubt with his track record.

Well, he literally lost his 17 year old son to a fentanyl overdose in the last few years. So I understand him feeling strongly about it.

You're saying this, but it doesn't mean anything because you're not saying how you'd do it different. Like, if you wrote or edited that comic instead, give me your version
