The conservative comic strip “Mallard Fillmore” has been plucked.
Bruce Tinsley, creator of the 27-year-old cartoon, said he was told this week by his syndication company that Gannett newspapers across the country simultaneously dropped the comic over two strips critical of President Biden and transgender participation in women’s sports.
“It was a big shock,” Mr. Tinsley told The Washington Times. “From what I’m hearing, it was unprecedented. My syndicate had never seen anything like it.”
He said officials at King Features, which syndicates the cartoon, said that “a decision was made at the [Gannett] corporate level, and they weren’t sure exactly why, except that they were sure it was about those two cartoons.”
The two comics ran Feb. 19-20.
The first depicts Mr. Biden musing: “For too long, segregation sullied women’s sports … They were restricted to women! Thank goodness those dark days are over.”
In the second cartoon, Mr. Biden says, “I hear what you, the American people, want me to do … kill fossil-fuel jobs … devalue Americans’ labor … and help more transgender athletes beat the *@!# out of biological females.”
If you had an agenda to destroy civil rights and perpetuate racism, you would actually create fraudulent front groups that are really proxies for mostly foreign anti-american interests and state actors and flood them with dark money and use the front groups to destabilize the nation through social intimidation and violence, property destruction, and support for crime (both organized and individual).
I’ll even avoid using the word terrorism this time to not sound hyperbolic but it probably has more to do with organized crime than it does with terrorism. What I can’t put my finger on is whether they want to destabilize law-and-order and culture enough in order to achieve full society collapse and civil war, or if they just want to siphon off wealth. But ‘civil rights’ is the perfect shield for it because you cannot attack anything under that umbrella, even if you are black.
Problem with a civil war,it may spill over into their lives....Take all the wealth,suck it all up ,then live happily ever after watching everyone become dirt poor and fighting over the crumbs......
Not just “plucked”...
Progressives/Stalinists, like the devil himself, cannot stand to be mocked.
