I know it's just yet another variation of the one joke conservatives have, but apparently most newspapers printed Dave as a white character, which accidentally makes this the funniest Dilbert strip in years

god the comments section beneath every Dilbert cartoon really is just a right-wing cesspool, huh?
(i realize this is true of basically every comments section beneath basically everything)

whats amazing about this is Scott Adams was called out for not having any minority characters in his comic besides the intern and he responded by insisting that Dilbert had no black characters he was so anti-racist that he could not bear to make fun of a black guy. so he finally introduces a black character after 33 years and this is the first joke he can think of. not only that but he's such a piss poor artist that you can't even tell he's supposed to be black in the print version. just incredible all around
― frogbs, Monday, 2 May 2022 18:47 (two years ago) link
one of his funniest bits is when he responds to criticism by twisting himself into a logic pretzel, just this insecure guy thing where he strongly believes he's always right but just spouts gibberish
― mh, Monday, 2 May 2022 19:07 (two years ago) link
or, I guess, more accurately he doesn't believe he can ever admit to being wrong or mistaken
― mh, Monday, 2 May 2022 19:08 (two years ago) link
I'm not gonna read his 90s books again but I was way into them as a kid and what I remember was that his whole shtick was basically about how to bullshit your way through life. but he at least had some sense of self-awareness, like when writing the Dilbert Future he said the whole point was to make all these outlandish predictions and then get hailed as a genius if one of them actually came true
if nothing else this dude is a good case study in how money & fame can permanently fuck up a person

Quite honestly one of the most divorced people I’ve ever seen
― gyac, Monday, 2 May 2022 19:46 (two years ago) link
one of the chosen people to have divorced man mindset before he was ever married, many years ago, and each divorce has only melted his mind further

this guy could have never married and he’d still be incredibly divorced.

Dave will be featured all week, so if this one doesn't get me cancelled, more chances to come.— Scott Adams (@ScottAdamsSays) May 2, 2022
guessing it's too late to "fix" the print versions where Dave ends up looking like Steven Seagal so we may be about to witness the funniest Dilberts ever

what if... Dave's first line had been "Actually, I identify as Dilbert"
why is this guy so fucking tedious
― gyac, Monday, 2 May 2022 21:14 (two years ago) link
he's a 64 year old rich white american who would wake up at 4am to draw Dilbert before he finally quit his former day job
this was, supposedly, after several years of waking at that hour every day to brainstorm a business venture and he came up with this comic strip
note that this is according to his own retelling of how dilbert came to be, and it sounds like 90% bullshit

When a young male (let's say 14 to 19) is a danger to himself and others, society gives the supporting family two options:1. Watch people die.2. Kill your own son.Those are your only options. I chose #1 and watched my stepson die. I was relieved he took no one else with him.— Scott Adams (@ScottAdamsSays) July 6, 2022

btw for those who don't know Scott Adams' stepson had a head injury at 14, got addicted to painkillers, and later overdosed on fentanyl, which is perhaps a more humane fate than getting murdered by Mr. Dilbert's own bare hands
― frogbs, Wednesday, 6 July 2022 19:34 (two years ago) link
Odd that that somehow translated in Scott Adams's head into "I killed my stepson."
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Wednesday, 6 July 2022 19:36 (two years ago) link
Well no, he’s saying he watched his stepson kill someone, ie himself
And he also seems to be saying “I should have killed him first” which is concerning for those who have to be around him
― castanuts (DJP), Wednesday, 6 July 2022 19:56 (two years ago) link
it seems to follow that Scott Adams must be killed </parody>
― maf you one two (maffew12), Wednesday, 6 July 2022 19:58 (two years ago) link
Ah, OK. By "people" I thought he meant people other than the young man in question.
In any event, he seems oddly detached.

I agree it's probably a bad idea for any teens to be around him right now, the good news is the one who did just recently divorced him

I know people were joking for a while that the strip itself would turn fascist and iirc it didn't (because apparently he gets most of his ideas from readers anyway), but I checked some recent strips and, uh:
https://dilbert.com/strip/2022-06-26
last week's story arc appears to be about rigged voting machines. it's a hoot!! (by the way, is it just me or do Dilbert strips not really have identifiable punchlines anymore?)

I waited two days for my government to justify an FBI raid on a former president's home.
