Radical Misunderstanding
I received a very angry letter in response to my BrickBob GayBash cartoon today, one that totally missed the point:
First off, YOU ARE A FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!! I cannont believe that there are honestly people in the world like you who put out such hate into the world and then slap God's name on it to make yourselves feel better. YOU ARE SO STUPID IT HUMORS ME. I don't understand why all of you people seem to only jump onto homosexuality when picking a sin to point out. Why don't you assholes stand in front of a buffet and protest fat people?? After all, gluttony is also a sin. I am so glad that I can raise my child to be a tolerant and loving person, to EVERYONE. Not just some people because others are different.I wrote back explaining that the piece was a satire, and that I am a pro-GLBT cartoonist who works for gay newspapers. It saddens me that anyone reading this cartoon could take it seriously, but I think that's more a symptom of the fact that the antigay groups are so crazy, they picket funerals, hell, they very well MIGHT draw a cartoon like that. Sigh...

What's sad is that comment is indicative of the hate spewed by both sides. People talk past each other and immediately lash out with the fuck you's or snarky bullshit. I see examples of that all over this site in my quick stop over.
Sad all around.
