[Martin Luther King Jr. is raising a finger, speaking]
Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.
And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day oppression will be solved by a strongly worded op-ed in the Washington Post and a bipartisan task force.
[MLK Jr. is now raising his hand]
I have a dream that one day this nation will politely vote segregation away, just like we did during the American Civil Vote and The Second World Vote.
I have a dream that my four little children will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by how politely they wait for incremental reform.
[MLK Jr. is now raising his fist]
I have a dream that the sons of former slave owners and the sons of former slaves will sit together at the table of a diversity panel moderated by a consultant.
This is our hope, and this is the faith that I go back to the South with.
What the fuck even is liberalism at this point? Do liberals actually believe “being okay with black people” makes them a fucking leftist?
I must make two honest confessions to you, my Christian and Jewish brothers. First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.
~ Martin Luther King Jr., a letter from Birmingham Jail
He and Malcom X were warning about people exactly like Newsom. Absolute disrespect.
What are all these made up lines? We all know MLK was born, said no words other than “something something content of character”, and then died.
This looks like AI slop
Is is not. The artist has hundreds of comics in this same artstyle.
Along with a few recordings of my drawings since these days some people see AI in everything.
I’m sorry I doubted you

Liberalism
Ahhhh. I remember the days, several versions of newspeak ago…
