Nobody is dismissing the problem. They’re saying the comic doesn’t represent the problem. It’s malformed commentary, not wrong commentary.

The comic isn’t showing an outright dismissal, though. The doctor hasn’t arrived at a conclusion just by asking a question that seems unrelated.
Doctors do that kind of digging all the time. It’s not worth it to explain all the interactions and interconnectedness just to get some basic questions answered, so doctors will often just ask weird questions out of the blue.
I think they’re trying to say it doesn’t fully satirize the issue. The doctor isn’t necesarily dismissing anything just by asking the question. They’re saying the joke is malformed, not that the issue cannot exist.

For most office workers, it’s both working in an office and living paycheck to paycheck.
Well you see we signed a defense pact with Israel so we can’t not support genocide and - oh wait we’ve lost another election…
Would be nice to at least get some more public transit investment!
Nowhere did I ever say someone who owns such a vehicle is obligated to drive like a jackass.
Either way, having a powerful engine shouldn’t excuse someone driving like a jackass. Hilarious people are downvoting being a responsible human being.
My sentiment remains the same. Those cars have plenty of performance to get in to trouble on public roads.
Track days are not expensive unless you completely turf your car, so even the advice remains completely valid. Don’t drive like a jackass on public roads. Period.
Nobody should be driving crazy enough to need a sports car on public roads. That’s insanely stupid to do. If they can afford the sports car, they can afford some track days.
That’s what she said! AhAhaHahAhAhaHaHa~
I’d argue wisdom is the defining feature of “human intelligence”, so if you say we’re pretty devoid of that… then we’re not so different from the other animals. It is only our lifespans and the ability to communicate complex ideas that really differentiates us.
The hardware those thoughts operate on hasn’t changed nearly as much as the cultures it produced.
Relative to what? My dog might drag his ass across the floor, but at least he can be taught not to do something, and would never vote for Turnip…
Looks like a sleeping Mike Wazowski
They think that way because that’s as far as their thoughts go. They do not have a deeper reason. They’re just judgemental morons that jump to conclusions to make themselves feel better.


Because they’re also in there.


Too bad for them, but reality has a left bias when the right denies the basics of reality… All such “bias removing” training will do is make a worse product.


Yeah, a union would be great, although I feel like that would be something that would have to come quite a ways down the road of ethical devs coming together. After all, not even the FOSS community agrees on what is ethical to give away and to whom.
Maybe a union is still the right term for the abstract ‘coming together’ I’m thinking of, since it’s hard to imagine how they could go from a generic collective to a body that could actually make effective demands, but perhaps it’s roughly the same process as getting a job-wide union off the ground.
That is a thought bubble from the mime.
