My sibling and I love Jammidodger! As for the page's social commentary, Lasker's ranting echoes the right's "woke" smears targeting anyone or anything deemed progressive, such as queer visibility. It also reinforces my alliance with trans people because, if they have no rights or institutional support, then no one else is safe.
Oh man I remember when my uncle gave me his Modern Family dvd set and my aunt took it from me and threw it away, simply because "It's a show that has homosexuals in it! I don't want you watching disgusting homosexuals!" I hated when she was living with us for 4 years. But now my mom is like her in that belief. Raeford I totally understand your pain of living with someone who wants things only THEIR way and no one else's way.
Because of the nature of this comic, I could totally see that. The kind of jerk that doesn't mind getting his dick sucked by a queer in the bathroom or in the alley, but still thinks he's better than them and never reciprocates.
That being said, there are some gay-bashers that genuinely are just terrible straight people.

Oh yeah. My cousin tends to believe that any man who "Does him wrong" like say a cop giving him a ticket or being kicked out of an apartment for not paying rent, he comments "I bet he's married to another man." I think he is bi but tries to remind himself that "It is wrong to feel that way because all these bad people are disgusting homosexuals."
I grew up with somebody like this. Wasn't even a family member, but he was around so much that he may as well have been.
A friend of my aunts that just kinda went crazy when even the most mild reference to gayness or gay people came up.
He only seemed to like it when gay people were used at the butts of jokes in old movies, before we were being portrayed as people with proper emotions/feelings/etc.

I don't buy it. My dad (Born in 1940s) always justified his homophobia on those grounds. "Just how I was raised" etc... Then I met his side of the family and found out they are more accepting than he was.
Also, those people lived through all these social movements for racial equality, gay rights etc..., watched it happen, and didn't question their own beliefs and morals? Yeah, comes a point where you don't hide behind that.

Because while the lessons ingrained to you as a child can stay as an reflex reaction, it is your capacity and responsibility as an adult to question these core beliefs and ask "why do I hate/dislike/etc... these people? Have I seen any proof of what I've been told about these people since I was a child? Do these people deserve to be hurt/killed/etc..."?
As I said, if you, through your adult life, witnessed all these social movements and changes, but still clung to the ideas you were told when you were little despite growing signs to the contrary that such beliefs are inaccurate, can you really claim innocence? Outside influence works both ways. If you are using outside influence to hate a people, but not using outside influence to change your views about them, then you are just looking for someone to hate on.

Trauma doesn't excuse being a shitty person, nor does it justify abuse the kind Lasker has inflicted. I am not using my trauma to inflict the same suffering and helplessness inflicted on me, and fucking hell it isn't out of not wanting on some days. I am choosing not to. Sympathy with trauma has its limits and Lasker is way past that line.
I have to agree. I really wanted to like and relate to Raeford, but there's something about him that makes it hard for me to cheer him on. He just seems very weak and whiney to me. I feel like if he had any guts he would cut all ties to his Dad and rebuild. II'm hoping he will and look to Wilson as a Father figure or something.
