At least parents have Varvel as an example of what a lifetime of religious indoctrination and training does to a person when explaining to their children why they need to stay as far away from christians and christianity as possible.
I value cartoons that don’t simply re-enforce my left-leaning views, but the cartoon needs some intellectual merit. That is harder to find. This toon has class clown level of merit.
I’m a woman who’s lived in this country for over seven decades. I don’t see LGBTQ rights as having anything to do with patriarchal attempts to kick women back into “females belong in the kitchen, pregnant.”
Think feminism is dead, huh, Gary? Not by a longshot. And it’s the asshats like you who help keep us motivated. Go live in 1955 – we don’t need you in 2022.
WOKE Feminist Karens have damaged Real Female accomplishments. Real Females deserve their own records. Pathetic males unable to see their name on a trophy change genders to be legend in their twisted minds. They haven’t fooled anyone. Same with Michael Obama playing a First Lady./s
I’ve come to believe that our politicians are either stubbornly too far left, or stubbornly too far right – ‘cause that’s where their votes are, and where most of the noise emanates, while . . .
The Majority of Americans fall somewhere in the middle of this Bell Curve, and most are dismayed by the actions of the extremes.

So the voters, angry that nothing gets done, vote out the side in office, and replace them with those on the other side.

BTW, I believe you would be correct if you replaced “Americans” with “Britons” or “Australians” – and most likely other countries whose news I do not follow.
Varvel’s cartoon reminds me of an incident which happened at the UN a number of years ago. Henry Cabot Lodge was addressing the assembly and the Soviet representative kept interrupting him. Cabot lodge said, “If the gentleman from Russia will wait his turn…” and the Soviet rep interrupted saying, “Is not gentleman from Russia. Is representative of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.” Cabot lodge said, “The two are not necessarily mutually exclusive.”
Strangely, I have seen no sign of any such thing. In fact, all the various movements that chap the GQP’s arse come down to the same basic thing. Treating every human as you yourself would like to be treated… you’ve probably heard of the golden rule…
I would like someone to explain to me how transgenderism kills feminism. I have yet to see any compelling argument, and I am starting to think it’s just a cynical ploy to weaken both by tricking us into fighting one another.

I guess Gary Varvel clocked out from his job pretending to be a Christian.
Now we’re back to the bigotry.

Not dead, but damaged by the radicalized Republican corrupted courts, not by transgender people.

The reason feminism is dead is because their leaders aren’t really leaders. Those people are mainly political hacks.

Women in Afghanistan are saying the same thing. Somehow, it’s always take away women’s rights and everything will be okay

Transgender people have not killed feminism; lying republicans/evangelicals and DJT have merely supplanted the dialogue.

Why are people afraid of women having the same opportunities as men or fearful of a person identifying with a different gender?
According to Merriam/Webster: Essential Meaning of feminism
1: the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities
2: organized activity in support of women’s rights and interests
Fear comes from ignorance. Education and learning are the answer.

Ah-ha-ha-ha! Good try, Varvel. As if feminism is the same as being transgender.
Nobody but you “stuck in the mud” old men think that those 2 things are the same.
