It really is amazing. It's not the most "complex" art, but Sinfest's stuff really hits different. Very evocative, very emotional.

Even though a lot of it isn't bleak, per se, it really illustrates just what we've lost. And how great we could be.

It's very clean, yet also detailed. I really hate art that's so cluttered that I can't tell what's going on. It's why I have a really hard time with manga. Half the panels in Berserk just look like the artist scribbled random lines all over the page to me.

Some of that might be due to low scan quality, especially on older series like Berserk. I would suggest watching some of Naoki Urasawa's Manben to see artists actually drawing it.

The "Rabbi Hole" arc is freaking high art. Even if I might not personally agree with the ultimate anti-Christian, pro-pagan message that series is an amazing narrative and really deserves to be a graphic novel (that no corporate store would ever dare carry).

And I really want this Ben Shapiro action figure: https://sinfest.xyz/view.php?date=2024-02-25

I can understand why he wrote it that way. The whole "Judeo-Christian" concept has left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths. It seems like the Pharisees and their holier-than-thou, rules-lawyering, shady nonsense are the ones in charge, and they've been using Christianity as the whitewash for their tombs, so to speak. Now the smell is too strong to ignore, and we're stuck with it.

That's probably quite wrong, and the criticism is probably more along the lines of Nietzsche decrying Christianity as a religion that worships weakness, and promotes slave morality, placing agency outside of the self.

I don't necessarily agree with Nietzsche's interpretation, though I get what he's aiming for, but the solution is probably not to return to a simple "might makes right" morality where you should kill anyone who challenges you, and enrich yourself with the enslavement of anyone who can't stop you, which is where a lot of that mindset inevitably leads, as aptly demonstrated in The Melian Dialogue, when that mindset was already the norm, and spooked the Athenians on just how fucking psychotic it really was. All you have to do is listen to the English recounting the Viking raids to understand how Norse morality might actually be a level of wicked that would probably deserve it's destruction and ruination.

It's an evil, twisted, warped version of Christianity, to encourage weakness and promote self-flagellation.

We are called to care for the sick and the weak. But how are we to do that if we are downtrodden ourselves? Our culture has turned victimhood into a virtue. But that's the subversion at work, taking advantage of the charity we are instructed to provide to those who cannot. Not to those who will not.

We were called to be as gentle as doves, but also as shrewd as serpents. It's easy for the feel-good gospel gang to warp this mandate into creating a flock of doves as prey for their machinations. Indeed, it's super MEAN and BIGOTED to be observant and judge things as they are. The Bible says don't judge, doesn't it? Actually, it says to judge not, for you will also be judged. It's a reminder that we're all fallen and equally in need of saving. Not that sin should be ignored because we're all sinners so that makes it okay.

And repentance. We're not supposed to wallow in our failings and let them shackle us. We're supposed to admit to them and improve. Go and sin no more, as our Teacher put it. Some of the greatest heroes of the Bible were horrific sinners. David, the man after God's Own Heart, was also a lustful adulterer and conspiratorial murderer. It was his contrition and repentance that let him move on and recover from his terrible stumbling. Who do you trust more? The man who admits his faults and owns up to them, or the man who insists there's nothing wrong with him and everything wrong is everyone else's fault?

The problem we have is that Christianity, what it's actually supposed to be, has been supplanted culturally with a theme-park facsimile of itself. A literal strawman to be toppled over at will by the usual suspects. Containing just enough truth to sell the lie and inoculate society from the actual truths that our culture was built on.

It's interesting to compare and contrast Christianity and Islam.

Christianity originated when its founder, a religious reformer, was killed.

Islam originated when its founder, a religious reformer (and self-proclaimed prophet), died of natural causes after having united almost all the Arab peoples into one hell of a fighting force that quickly conquered most of the world from Spain to China.

Jesus' messaging includes statements like "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's...." This is a reminder that early Christians were persecuted by the Jewish rules and later, to some degree, Romans (though Roman persecution is way overhyped). Many Christians have a mentality of identifying with the downtrodden, the persecuted, those outside of power, etc.

Islam, to the contrary, does not have this same emphasis on self-preservation in the face of hostile political or religious organizations. Islam, during the time of Muhammad, militarily defeated his opposition! Thus some of the gravest crimes in Islam are related to apostasy and turning away from Islam (historically apostasy was a death penalty crime, and it still is today in some countries).

Without getting too long winded, yeah, I think there's an old strain of Christianity that DOES focus on the "turn the other cheek" (and not the rest of the quote), the "render unto Caesars" and the "blessed are the poors."

And, to be fair, Islam and Christianity share an awful lot in common in terms of moral teaching. THere's a big emphasis on charity, helping the downtrodden, etc.

Mohammed was by no means a reformer, and was far closer to a violent revolutionary warlord, who murdered all opposition and post-hoc rationalized everything he did.

You think Christian morality was any better when it came to pillaging, raping and murdering? Especially when it came to heresy? At least the Vikings were honest and didn't pretend to be holier than thou while committing atrocities.

– Gizortnik 6 points 1 year ago +6 / -0

Unironically yes.

Where you see raping and pillaging, you see a catholic priest typically behind making post hoc rationalizations why it's totes okay this time. For Protestants, it would be the king explicitly doing the same thing after he's seized control of the church or declared himself the sole representative of God.

For the Norse, it was standard, it was common place, and it was moral to do so without justification.

So making religious excuses for your despicable actions makes those actions better? When I pillage a village because I admit it is because I want to rob them of their wealth it is bad but when I pillage a village and rob them of their wealth and excuse it away by saying they're dirty heathens it is better? That would make ISIS the most moral people on Earth.

For the Norse, it was standard, it was common place, and it was moral to do so without justification.

They always had justification. Acquiring wealth and valuable farmland. And as the Christian clergy was so moral that they hoarded immense wealth they were the prime target for Norse raiders.

Yes because it shows that you need an excuse to do it instead of it being so normalized that you don't have an ounce of hesitation to even question doing it in first place.

Like, you see how a random person needed God to justify it before he went and started committing evil to be different from someone who just did it on his own, right. It doesn't make either good, it just makes one worse than the other.

For the people we're talking about violence is so normalized that they don't question their actions in the slightest. I'm not sure if you are aware how normal extreme violence was during that time.

Like, you see how a random person needed God to justify it before he went and started committing evil to be different from someone who just did it on his own, right.

Yes. One is honest, the other is hypocritical. Because in the end they both did it for the same exact reasons. Be it greed, rage or simply bowing down to authority.

It doesn't make either good, it just makes one worse than the other.

And that's where we seem to be of very different opinions. I take honest evil over hypocritical and deceitful evil any day of the week.

On the one side you had the Norse who pillaged and conquered themselves for their own greedy gains. On the other side you have an organised religion who pillaged and conquered to live in disgusting luxury but manipulated others into doing it for them while shrouding themselves in moral superiority.

The Church spilled more European blood than probably any other group. And don't deceive yourself into thinking that they ever did it for noble reasons.

I wouldn't call it art. If you're gonna push political messaging, at the very least, allow for some kind of appearance of artistic storytelling, metaphor, and interpretation. Otherwise, it's a lecture.

As the comic stands, that lecture is subtle, so long as you spelled subtlety, like this.

When people survive the Left's attempts to lynch them, they realize they don't actually have all that much to fear, and start throwing fucking hands.

This is why so many on the right who are it's strongest fighters, were hardcore Lefties at one point.

Gonna have to disagree with you on that one chief, as someone who has been MeToo'd (to get out of paying rent and hide a cheating triangle I wasn't even a part of) and was stuck with a Hardcore Feminist school counselor in Middle School, there is absolutely plenty to fear in many of their sleeves. Especially in the places and times you are most vulnerable (as in, not online).

Which is why I find all the "former Lefties" that make up our ranks so insufferable. Because most of them "come to Jesus" and act like they were victims for being brainwashed and manipulated for so long. Without an ounce of repentance for their contributions or outright damage to those of us who weren't as easily duped that them.

And as we see with IMC and basically everyone on KIA1 these days, "former Lefties" might swing the hardest but they are also the least reliable to stay the path after time. Convert Zeal only lasts so long.

– Gizortnik 2 points 1 year ago +2 / -0

I don't disagree with you, but I think we're talking about "former lefties" at two different times.

The recent converts, yes, because they still haven't challenged any of the foundational myths. This is where you get the dissident voice going "feminism went awry in the 3rd wave!" These are "the Left left me" types. They are the ones who have been emotionally conditioned to feel like they belong on the Left, and try to go back and eventually realize they can't.

The ones who actually challenge those myths are the ones I'm talking about. I forget his name now, but it was the the lawyer who's friend was raped and murdered by several Black Panther members, and realized that not only did any of his Lefty friends want to investigate it, but neither did the police. Those are the ones who tell you to just keep throwing hands.

Well of course they do. I'm assuming that since you brought it up the guy in your example was a heavy leftie. Which means he is likely very responsible for getting his friend hurt by contributing to the climate that helped make Black Panthers feel both safe doing and avoid consequences as well.

They are telling you to throw hands to assuage their own guilt at seeing the nightmare they've created, and hoping that if they get you hyped enough to destroy it it will absolve them.

Because, as I said, it never comes with a repentance. They don't swap and then try to right the wrongs they've made personally. Heck most won't even acknowledge it, and if so will just be "was a Leftie." Its just about further destruction of the "bad guys," just like a Leftie is, but now the bad guy is new.

Its no different than a Christian who spends all day ranting and raving about the evils of sin in everyone else, but refuses to go to confession himself.

For the most part yes, with the exception that he tried to hold the Black Panthers accountable and got nowhere with it, thus setting him on the path away from the Left, because he realized that all of his friends were okay with the rape and murder.

To me, and from at least this person's account, there is significant repentance because he understood that he had managed to basically let her die because he implicitly trusted people solely because of his ideology. Recognizing that, he wants to get more people to fight that ideology and keep it from happening again.

Just admitting to your sin isn't repentance. Its a solid first step, and is better than a lot of "former Lefties" get because the bar is just that fucking low, but its still just the first step. Since I don't know the exact person you are talking about I can't criticize further.

To use a different example, someone going Sober has to spend everyday focusing on it, including constant meetings with AA or similar. Part of that is making a list of everyone you hurt from top to bottom and then making those amends no matter how big or small. As well as taking inventory of their own flaws, defects and failings that lead to them being able to fall into that pit to begin with.

What most of these "former Lefties throwing hands" are doing is skipping all that and just going out demanding Alcohol be banned, skipping all the personal accountability nonsense. They are still the same person but now swinging a different way, with the same exploitable defects as a person.

And then recently had an almost half-year-long comic arc about how Jews harm everything (subtitled "Down The Rabbi Hole"). Even the follow-up to the linked comic has them wondering "who makes these harmful government decisions?" and then it pans over to The Happy Merchant caricature. Dude can't figure out where he exists on the political compass, a living example of the saying "if you're not a liberal in your 20s you have no heart, if you're not a conservative in your 30s you have no brain.".

Every demographic except for White Christian Men acts collectively in their own interests and have openly public organizations that often partner with large institutions (government, corporations, education) for the purpose of forwarding those interests.

Every ethnicity except the White ones are blatantly nepotistic while publicly denying it.

No group except for Whites publicly denounce their worse members. Blacks will beclown themselves in holding up their worst members as modern saints when they suffer the obvious consequences of their actions.

In the face of these facts advocating for "individualism" and against White solidarity is the exact same thing as promoting White genocide.

"The solution to goblins is to act like goblins". No. I am an actual human, and only associate with other humans. If you are incapable of recognizing the difference between individuals and collectives you are a goblin and should be treated as such.

If you would take a commie over an actually good and useful human being, because the commie shares your skin tone, you are no better than any other retarded subhuman. Whether you're a fed or you actually have that mental disability, advocating for racial collectivism instead of actual merit judgement marks you a leftist. You will never slide the right, because you are incapable of understanding it. Die mad about it, fag.

"No group except for Whites publicly denounce their worse members"

This is bullshit. If you only ever see CNN and never step outside I can see how you would be led to believe this, but you have not actually dealt with reality. I have friends and neighbors of other races who are actually right wing, and hire people based on merit. Because they're real humans, capable of higher thought. Unlike you. Maggot.
