I think you should mention that your comics are satire. I think most people take you literally, specially since we are federated to many non-leftists instances that actually think those people are leftists.
While this is very legitimate advice, I’ll be real, I absolutely love it when people eat the satire bait.
Doesn’t take much to entertain me.
Buuuuut you might be right I should be more clear. If “strawman” in the title doesn’t do it then idk what will so I should probably just stick the word SATIRE in all caps when I do these full satire ones.
I feel you. I find the best satire usually makes me a bit uneasy and unsure. It took me a second on your post until I looked back at the title.
I wonder if the reaction would have been different if you had put the title in the comic itself instead of just having it as the post title. It’s a small change, but I think it might have been enough. It would be an interesting psychology experiment if you could randomly serve both versions and see how the reaction plays out.
