what is meant by the comment that young people's attitudes towards gays aren't "perfect"? I suppose the only acceptable thing would be for all teens to love and embrace the gay lifestyle for them to be satisfied with the young people's attitudes? Ain't gonna happen, so forget it. No matter how it is pushed in our faces, it will never be a societal "norm".
The only reason these people think the youth is more "open and accepting" is because its been crammed down there throats and if you don't validate and EMBRACE this perverted lifestyle, you are nothing but a low life "homophobe". Homosexuality will eventually be the downfall of this once great nation. It is all predicted in the Bible. This country is in a very sad, bad place in history.
depraved
Funky Winkerbean turned into a soap opera strip about ten years ago and now it looks like Archie is following suit. In each case it’s about creatively bankrupt ‘creators’ trying to generate cheap drama and headlines because thats easier than making people laugh.
Never heard of it. 400 newspapers and it isn’t in NYC? Odd.
The Gaystapo is powerful. Sickening beyond any doubt.
How ironic, I remember outrage over MAD Magazine’s parody of Riverdale, “Starchie Standrews” where the 1950’s hero indulged in smoking, hinted at drinking, bullied freshmen & sold them school `passes’, then bumped off his rival Wedgie Van Smelt. His girlfriends Salonica & Biddy shot heroin and had zit ridden faces. Of course, Starchie paid for his crimes with life imprisonment in reform school.
Even that’s mild compared to today’s forced gay acceptance.
Next we will see Batman having sex with Robin.
And Wonder Woman dining at the Y.
Calvin and Hobbes
Peanuts
Bloom County
Dilbert
Far Side
No one make humorous and quality strips like this anymore.
All the rest are complete garbage, with far too many of them trying to sneak in crap like “gay prom dating”.
“Dealing with intolerance is something I’ve dealt with many times before”
It doesn’t sound like that he is tolerant of intolerance
this would be a significant news item if anybody out there still read the funny pages in dead-tree newspapers...
Amazing the lengths a comic strip with with the word “Funky” in the title will go to to seem current......
Does anyone read Funky Winkerbean? I never understood the strips that give you three seconds of dramatic content per day (like Apartment 3-G, FW, etc.)
That’s so gay.
Funky Winkerbean has been reset several times. Now it is trying to be “socially relevant” in the same way an aging ‘B quality’ rock and roll band makes a desperate effort to get publicity before they are forgotten.
Trouble is that it is as relevant as Garfield, or maybe even Marmaduke. Ziggy? Love is?
