Or if they asked white US residents if they had a positive or negative impression of the statement “Black lives matter.”

I really enjoy the short lived dilbert cartoon, and I feel comfortable saying that since that show is significantly more Larry Charles made joyful insanity than mundane workplace Scott Adams. 

I hope that plenty of non-bigoted comic strip artists start dunking on Adams in their strips as soon as possible. I’m all here for it.

for frustrated office workers it was a stress outlet. like most of that kind of humor the line eventually crosses from “relatable overworked guy who is grumpy with good cause” and “ meanspirited jerk who thinks he is smarter than everyone else” he became the pointy haired boss. and worse, he was an early techbro. i…

THIS is what being cancelled looks like, by the way:

But it literally mentions the poll and the phrase (and links to a Wikipedia page about the phrase) and that racists have co-opted it... like, did you just miss this whole part:

It’s always nice when a racist douche makes it clear by publicly making available the evidence that that they are, in fact, a racist douche. 

I have some exact and spot-on reporting for you: Scott Adams is a racist motherf**ker with a long and documented history of spouting off racist rants and White Nationalism. There, thus ends my report.

Not sure of the reporting, or the absence of “full quotes”. I watched the damn thing, 57 minutes of it. Well, listened - no need really to actually look at his face while he talked. [And oddly or not, sometimes he uses the same cadences as Tucker Carlson. Don’t know who’s imitating whom there.]

I’m not sure being a world-class asshole is always an emotional problem, though.

Oh ffs. We all read what he did, and we know what he thinks anyway. Are you trying to white-knight Scott Adams, the guy who used to post on Metafilter defending Scott Adams while denying he was Scott Adams until the mods outed him?

“How come nobody has considered that he meant ‘I would advise white people to stay away from black people’ in a non racist way?”

They linked the video in question, if you’re curious, or doubt the article. Once confirmed as hate speech, nothing is gained by repeating hate speech in full.

lol how much context do you need exactly? you seem a little desperate

Adams has been pretty much known to be a right-wing shit head for decades now, so a blatently racist video made by him should come as no surprise to anyone.

Are you familiar with Adams? This isn't uncharacteristic for him. His very, very, very far right. The type that complained Trump wasn't extreme enough 

lol

Similarly, Garfield creator Jim Davis went on a disturbing, hate-filled rant about Mondays in a recent strip, which he then followed-up with an effusive essay about his favorite food lasagna.

Based on the pull quotes, I don’t think there’s some magical context that will make the braindead cartoonist’s virulent racism somehow lessened or explainable. Especially considering that we have a storied history of the braindead cartoonist being a right-wing shitheel.
