    This entire comic is just a reiteration of the same divisive rhetoric that has long since kept us from consistently making positive change. The battle has always been the people vs the ruling class, and the best way to distract people from that has always been to focus one subset of the people against another subset of the people.

    If you wanted an accurate comic, you’d need republicans and democrats together on a nearby megayacht shooting holes into the boat occupied by the entire American working class. Maybe republicans are shooting the majority of the holes, but the idea that the democrats are actually baling water is ridiculous.

    At best democrats are like the cops that stand by while their coworker murders an innocent civilian, then stay quiet during the subsequent “internal investigation.” Sure, you should use your voting power to ensure they get in power over their gun-crazy friends, but don’t for a second believe real positive change will happen until we come together as an entire working class and force it to.
