He drew Dilbert for decades. He had a lot of comics and books in him.

In his later life he was clearly trolling and dabbling in stirring up social media for fun, and it was hard to tell where the lines between that and his personal identity were.

Goodbye born entertainer and funny dork.

Promoting racism, bigotry, and hate is not trolling and should not be treated as lightly as you imply.

Do the Thumper thing. If you can't find something nice to say, then don't say anything at all.

Silence is how fascism rises.

There's a difference between speaking out against injustice when there is real risk involved, and speaking against a person because you don't like their views. Silence is appropriate in the latter case; or even better, express your own positive (in the logical sense) positions. Bloodless, priggish condemnation of individuals with fascist views makes fascism rise even faster than silence.

Anyone who claims they turned to fascism because they're angry people insulted fascists is not arguing in good faith.

Silence allows the messages of hatred to spread more loudly and more rapidly; if you leave fascists along they become emboldened and push the lines even further. We've seen this over and over, both historically and in America today.
