That's why I said "the comic acts as though" not "the post suggests" or something similar. Even then, when looking at the full quote from the post, "The guy shown here is not supposed to be representative of scans daily posters as a whole who I know to contain a number of real actual women and also furries." it's entirely possible to take that it was only saying the character wasn't representing s_d because he looks like a neckbeard rather than a woman or furry not because his views don't reflect the majority.

	Yeah, you could get that impression from reading the comic out of the context (there's that word again) of the caption that accompanies it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"The guy shown here is not supposed to be representative of scans daily posters as a whole who I know to contain a number of real actual women and also furries." This can easily be taken to be a disclaimer about the character's physical appearance. What about this assumption is taking things out of "context" when there is nothing more being presented than this comic and that line? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	because the "furries and women" is just a throwback joke to the last comic posted, icon_uk linked it a while up. Check it out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	At this point it feels like you're just grasping at whatever straws left to make the comic about the comm which would further justify the warning issued. I don't think this is going anywhere. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	When the person who made the comic put the name of the comm in it, that's when it became about the comm. If you can't see that a warning doesn't make this any less true then yes, I agree that we should just drop this as it's likely just to continue in circles from here. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I already knew about that and even then it's easy to interpret the line as a comment on it being a neckbeard in the comic instead of a woman or furry. Though it should be said that, even with a disclaimer, putting the community name in the comic itself automatically makes it come across as a jab at the community as a whole even if that wasn't the intent.
