Even r/comics on reddit has more interesting/constructive takes on this comic, which is worrying for Lemmy.

This one Redditor (Calli5031) puts it much more elegantly than me:

it’s absolutely a good thing that white people are starting to get organized and get out into the streets to resist the regime. it’s also frustrating (and indicative of how deep the white supremacist rot runs in our society) that the point at which “people can’t excuse state violence as an occasional occurrence” isn’t the decades of abuse, rape, and murder of migrants and people and color, but the point at which it disturbs white safety and comfort.

i’m sure plenty of the current crop of white anti-ICE protesters were probably against state violence in the abstract sense, but the fact that they weren’t moved to action before now isn’t a neutral fact existing in some contextless, ahistorical vacuum, it is reflective of the fact that, consciously or not, white america simply does not value black lives the same as white ones.
