Dilbert - C or D?

I mean he's spent the last 5 years cultivating that exact audience so yeah

ha, the comments don't even display for me

Please stop asking me to form an opinion around your hallucination that someone "incited an insurrection." That only happened in your imagination and was created by the Fake News Industry. I don't form policy opinions around the hallucinations of strangers.

whoa there are over 100 comments on every dilbert strip

the idea that Adams views Trump as just a figment of his own diseased mind actually makes everything he's written the last few years make much more sense

President of Elbonia

have any papers dropped him?

good question

He hasn’t spent months whining about it on Fox News so I would assume not

he clearly thinks he is a genius (he is not a genius)

I don't know how well Trump's legal team will do today, but if I were them I could easily win from today's field position. The other side handed them a clean path to victory.

PLEASE let him take over

also lol that hes so dumb he thinks the trial is some kind of battle of ideas

I'm sure Adams could get Trump acquitted by the Senate GOP, as could anyone, as could I if I chose to not mount a defense but freestyle over the "Push It" beat for 6 hours straight

Yeah the path to victory was foreordained. When you need two thirds of the jurors, simply have half of them be spineless pieces of shit. Simple.

lmao look who's involved in this for some reason

https://www.theamericanconservative.com/state-of-the-union/leaked-texts-from-israeli-consular-official-show-more-details-in-gaetz-levinson-funding-scheme/

uhh if those were the parties involved in texting then the story is pretty much “Scott Adams sent us these screenshots” right? Or am I misinterpreting the chain of communication?

To be fair, surprised if Adams could send a screenshot without accidentally doxxing his own weird porn fetishes in another tab

looooooooooooooooool what is going on here

you’re entering the pearly gaetz of hell

i foolishly looked at Adams's twitter to see if he might be posting about this, but no --- it's all godawful posts in defense of George Floyd's murderer and the Georgia voter suppression law, with his stupid cult eating up every line. barf.

its hard for me to even process the idea of someone dumb enough to be texting buddies with scott adams. someone actually having the thought "this confidential info, i wonder what scott adams' take on it would be?"

he's definitely positioned himself as the idiot's idea of what a smart person sounds like, it's not really a surprise that conservatives think his insights are relevant

godawful posts in defense of George Floyd's murderer and the Georgia voter suppression law,

Crowing that nobody can show him a single case of a person wanting to vote in 2024 who has been unable to, therefore people have been hypnotized by the media into believing there’s a problem.

as usual the question is "is he just pretending to misunderstand the problem or is he actually that stupid"

I think at this point it's self-evident that that question isn't worth asking

true there is possibly no one on the planet (besides maybe Trump himself?) who exudes more of that rich old white guy "don't actually care about a single issue because this is all a game to me" energy

at some point it doesn’t matter if you’re disingenuous or just an idiot

that point is as soon as one person finds you credible imo

every time I look at his twitter he seems to be ranting about teachers' unions, just seems like such an odd and stupid thing to get worked up about

bingo

One way to eliminate police shootings during traffic stops is to allow only Uber-like self-driving cars (no other cars) in urban areas. If a perp is in one of those, police can override its controls, lock in the perp, and make it drive to police headquarters for safe handling.

— Scott Adams (@ScottAdamsSays) April 18, 2021

Dude is a living breathing galaxy brain meme

If the self-driving car has committed a traffic offense, then the car is the perp. Scott would need to coax the car to drive inside a much larger and better-behaved car that will then lock the perp car inside, and wait for the police to make it drive to police headquarters.

Obviously regular police stations are far too small to accomodate these car-eating transporters, hence going to "police headquarters." We will need to build all-new giant police headquarters in the suburbs where the cops live, not in "urban areas."

Of course, roads in both cities and suburbs will all need to be widened in advance to accomodate these monster cars that can fit whole other cars inside them. But at least since we're starting from scratch, they can be standardised, and all cars built to the same model in order to fit inside the perp-capturing megacar. 100% of American car manufacture will need to be nationalised in order to achieve this.

amazing how many of his terrible terrible ideas are things that, realistically, should be proposed by the pointy-haired Dilbert boss while the other characters look on blankly, perhaps with a raised eyebrow or a sip of coffee.

also basically indistinguishable from dumb shit we came up with in 5th grade to pad out our required "invention logs" for science class.

and fascism

this has baffled me too

Amazing how he can start from “cops murdering ppl for running red lights is bad” ...and skip “abolish police” and skip “abolish private cars” and leap to “make everyone buy brand new private cars that also operate as state-controlled prisons”

amazing how many of his terrible terrible ideas are things that, realistically, should be proposed by the pointy-haired Dilbert boss while the other characters look on blankly, perhaps with a raised eyebrow or a sip of coffee.

someone please photoshop him into one of his own cartoons, spewing all this nonsense as the other characters look on blankly, perhaps with a raised eyebrow or a sip of coffee.

I’m lazy, find a strip it’ll work in and I’ll deliver.

i expect this stuff from him, but who are all the people chiming in with 'great idea!'

internet geek-celeb sycophant fascists, i wish they were rare

I saw a dilbert comic recently that was either photoshopped, or he has people just subbing in “x tech will save us” “but but about why” and then the manager saying “implement it”

tbf that seems like a good halfassed business model

lmao this dude has massively ratioed Dilbert twice in a row

Uh, sorry, you got the wrong script again, here's a correction: https://t.co/YZGqv7XN3C pic.twitter.com/tf96XDsKq5

I know he's a right wing reactionary crank now but I didn't know that was actually making it into the comic strip (which I assumed was 100% user submissions by now)

https://dilbert.com/strip/2021-09-05

idk what's sadder, the idea that he thought he could make "woke robot" funny or the fact that he gives up on the premise halfway through an 8-panel comic strip

Oh Scott you fucking dweeb, "did you just assume my gender?" - is that really all you can come up with?

He didn't give up on the premise! In addition to their obsession with gender, the 'woke' are soulless automatons, do u c. Another instance of massive right-wing projection, I do c.

clicked back two months in the archives, he legitimately seems to have no idea how to write a coherent joke any more. looked at some 90s strips to compare, definitely not a case of "it was always bad". even though the strip doesn't hold up too well it still had like...actual punchlines

It's just what happens when your entire comic strip m.o. becomes polemical butthurt.

"it rhymes with gunkyard" is pretty rough stuff there

That's wordplay

seems to have no idea how to write a coherent joke any more

Because his early stuff was taken from situations he encountered in his last cubicle job, and then the mid period stuff is cribbing from situations his fans have emailed him about that they've experienced.
