It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Letter From an Unknown Woman.
The most amusing thing about this strip--albeit in a horrible way--is that Muir spouts his bullshit about 'liberty' and then sort of ignores that he's reveling people losing theirs, or in some cases having it denied from birth. But then Muir doesn't want liberty, he wants license to impose his will on others. If we don't let him be a tyrant, then we're the real tyrants he whines, once again.
Fascists have a limited playlist, and the tunes don't get better with age.
Multiple layers of terrible irony here.
ReplyDeleteFirst off, the man who treats his female characters as sex objects in every single strip having the nerve to tell women to "close their legs." Good one.
Secondly, Pelosi and Biden wearing the uniforms of Union soldiers. Wouldn't that be...a compliment?
And of course, Mia is the character who just escaped a theocratic society, and she's now being lectured about how grateful she should be that another theocracy is being built around her.
On the first--remember, Muir has never been bothered by the hypocrisy of his Rat Pack era sexism, and his tendency to play the devout Christian Nationalist.
DeleteOn the second--Muir's views on this are a muddled mess, where Democrats can be both the evil slaveowners running the Welfare Plantation AND the face of Nawthen Aggression as needed.
And on the final--Muir would doubtless think this is different, because it is a CHRISTIAN theocracy.
So you're telling me his views are mostly garbled and hypocritical...that checks out!
