1946?? Yes, at one point.

The change made here marks the point where the valid header/anchor of "1946" was removed. These things happen, especially cross-wiki. Just so you know (I was intruigued myself, so did a couple of minutes digging). Nice catch, though! 172.70.85.139 10:46, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

oh, my first talk page message, thx. Caliban (talk) 11:44, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Politics intrudes

randall still supports zionist harris... :'( Caliban (talk) 07:49, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Do you really think Trump would be better? 172.68.205.135 09:18, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

i mean, both of them suck tbh Caliban (talk) 09:35, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

so whats your alternative suggestion? Voting/Endorsing for a third party and then get trump into office? Great strategy --Lupo (talk) 10:46, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

that ain't how it works. if we all vote for the third party, the third party will win. simple as that. Caliban (talk) 11:30, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Which third-party? Vermine Supreme? 172.70.90.206 12:04, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Who exactly is "we all"?

Nobody outside of your little internet bubble is voting third-party, because doing so without mass coordination is just throwing your vote away (meanwhile MAGA are all fully coordinated in voting for Trump).

The risk of a Trump second term is bad enough even with everyone who is anti-Trump voting for Harris, and you think the average person over the age of 20 is going to risk that even further by voting for a third party?172.69.195.106 12:25, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

I think you err if you think that "supports Israel against attackers" totally equates to "supports Israel's uncompromising attacks on others". And "Zionist" is such a loaded term, with various complications, with Kamala being no more this than is her primary opponent.

Being consistently critical of one candidate by using a single word (e.g.. "fascist", for the other one) does not bode well for your appreciation of the many subtleties that make up anyone other than a cartoon hero/villain. Not that even the reality of the State Of Israel is simple (there are plenty of its citizen residents who decry their government's actions since/before last October, are they anti-Zionist?), and even that is just a single relatively small mess in the much bigger mess that is the wider morass of foreign (and domestic) policy. By picking just one dogwhistle term (arguably in a very incorrect context) isn't helping whatever argument you're trying to make. All I get from this conversation is that you hate every candidate with any chance of winning (and most of those without, based upon their stated positions), without knowing what you are for. Employment? Social safety-nets? Smaller goverment? Better (define 'better'!) government? Who would you prefer to 'deal with' the issue of Ukraine, Taiwan, North Korea or countless other worldside issues out there?

You also elsewhere announced yourself as a Brit (as am I), so you don't have a vote and precious little actual influence. Even if you or I had any useful analysis to say about this issue, it seems that most people are already polarised in opinion and you or I (or, indeed, Randall) can do little but be performative about our current views. It is unlikely we could swing even one notable vote, although we might just push some of the partially polarised fully over (whichever way) into their pre-chosen preferences, excited or annoyed by such a single-issue outburst that they find themself vehemently agreeing or disagreeing with. (As a Brit, I'm frankly embarrassed by those who put up "this house is supporting the LibDem/Labour/Tory/SNP/whoever candidate" signs in their windows. I'd put up OMRLP ones, maybe, but I've never been able to vote that way, anyway, so can certainly say that I've actually never voted for them. Even if they sometimes seem the better choice.)

Furthermore, it has absolutely nothing to do with this comic (US geography, yes, US politics, no). I would heavily advise you to take this whole section out and place it all somewhere else. Perhaps your User Talk: area, so that you can wear your heartfelt antizionist (and perhaps no more) opinions on your sleeve without distracting from more relevent discussion, such as "Why is Idaho unlabeled" or "Why does everyone mississremember Mississippi's postostostal code?" 172.70.90.206 12:04, 17 October 2024 (UTC) Postscript: *I* have moved this. <-that IP

Quick question, CalibansCreations. Are you the same IP troll who said that Randall supports Zionism? 42.book.addict (talk) 15:16, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

yes, I only wanted an account so I could change the skin of this website when viewing it Caliban (talk) 15:39, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Oh, pleasure to meet you Victoria! You can just call me Caliban or Cal. (That's my own pseudonym.) Caliban (talk) 19:27, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
