    That’s “AI.” Not reading that. Draw your own art or hire an actual artist. There are tons of ways to convey whatever is being conveyed here. Just don’t use “AI.” all of what is generating is based from the work of actual artists unpaid and stolen and it’s fucking up the planet we all call home.

    where are they supposed to be? what’s in the background? why is the pile of tomato-persimmon-apples speaking for itself in one panel, but not in the next? why are the arms of the scale different lengths? why does the notebook seem to move from one edge of the table to the other between the last 2 panels? why is the white dude’s pencil on his right in one panel, but held in his left hand in the next? why does the black dude suddenly have a pencil at the end of the comic?

    why’s the white man in a button-down, but the black man’s in jeans and a t-shirt? huh? what the fuck?

      And I really don’t get the point of the comic. The idea that black people commit disproportionately more crimes is invalid because it ignores other factors that lead to crime. Poverty, over-policing, and decades of policies deliberately designed to hurt the black community are to blame.

      But trying to argue per-capita measurement is invalid? That’s just bizarre.

          I’ve generally heard the 13/53 numbers as referencing violent crime but who knows if that’s what it actually is because I’ve only ever heard people us it when being super racist.

            yeah I wonder a lot about the actual statistics of crime, violent crime, financial crime, labor crime etc., because the prodigious enforcement against poc, and the damn near global under-enforcement of the white collar class…

        yeah im like arguing against per capita is stupid. 50% of murders come out of the poorest 10%. Bussiness owners don’t shoot their neighbors they sue them.
