Show me a comic page you love; no explanation needed.
From X-Men 200, the Trial of Magneto, one of the greatest speeches in comic book history:
Magneto: "My goal has not changed, but my methods have."
Judge: "You still seek the domination of the world?"
Magneto: "My dream, from the start, has been the protection and preservation of my own kind, mutants.
"To spare them the fate my family suffered in Auschwitz - and do not tell me such a thing cannot happen again, because that is a lie!
"You humans slaughter each other because of the color of your skin, or your faith, or your politics - or for no reason at all -
"- too many of you hate as easily as you draw breath. What's to prevent you adding us to that list?!
"I thought I could impose sanity from above - through conquest - but there are too many of you. So, I decided, I must try another way.
"I am the reason mutants are unjustly feared. That is why I am here, why I will abide by the court's decision.
"My hope is to make the world understand the reasons for my being, but most of all, to punish *me* for my crimes - and no longer, my people.
"Whatever my fate, you must still face the reality presented in our - mutants - existance(sic). You cannot wish us away. You cannot ignore us. We - homo sapiens superior - are your *children.* We are the next generation of humanity. What kind of parent fears his progeny? Tries to murder them? Is that the legacy you wish to leave?
"I have seen the error of my ways - can you say the same?!"

The F**KING INVENTOR OF CYBERPUNK shared this. Just thought I'd mention that.
Picture of the original post with the following quotes:
"We are deploying responsibly
developed Al to liberate humanity from menial labor and usher in an era of unparalleled creativity and abundance."
SAM ALTMAN

"You ingested the entire written output of human civilization without consent, without compensation, and without credit, to build a system whose primary commercial application is eliminating the jobs of the people whose work you consumed.
You are not liberating human creativity - you are strip-mining it and selling it back at a markup while calling the theft training data."

From the first panel of This Modern World comic "A momentous victory" (found on https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2026/5/25/800043450/cartoon/a-momentous-victory/ ): Caricature Todd Blanche says to Caricature Donald Trump, "Sir, speaking as your personal lawyer who is also your acting attorney general, I believe we have won a *momentous* victory under the well-established legal precedent of 'fuck you, try and stop me!'"

Two men, one in a white polo T-shirt and the other in an "LGB without the T" T-shirt, are shaking hands. The one with the "without the T" shirt is holding a "gays against drag queens" sign. Both are smiling. Behind them, three people are handcuffed and being dragged off rightward. The two men have the following exchange:

Panel one: Polo shirt guy says, "We did it! We finally outlawed all the trans people and drag queens! Thanks for your help!" Gays against drag queens sign guy replies, "Happy to be of service!"
Panel two: Gays against drag queens sign guy, still smiling, asks, "So, who are we going after next?"
Panel three: Polo shirt guy is smiling and staring at sign guy.
Panel four: Gays against drag queens sign guy, smiling a little less, asks, "I said, who's next?"
Panel five: Polo shirt guy is smiling and staring at sign guy.
Panel six: Gays against drag queens sign guy is no longer smiling. He says, "Who..." in a smaller font than the rest of the word bubbles.
Panel seven: Polo shirt guy is smiling and staring at sign guy.

@tomtomorrow.bsky.social displayed this phenomenon perfectly early in the Bush II years:
This Modern World's classic "Outrage Overload" comic from the now-distant past of 2002:
Tom Tomorrow's turtle-neck liberal ranting at Sparky the Penguin (bold text in all caps): "I am OUTRAGED by the determination of an unelected president to drag us into an unnecessary war! AND I am outraged by his assertion that we will not 'pass our problems along' to future generations - when HE'S the one proposing a TRILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT over the next five years!"
"I am outraged that ENRON and the other corporate scandals have been effectively SWEPT UNDER THE CARPET! And that Dick Cheney STILL hasn't make his energy task force records public! AND that the S.E.C. has actually just WEAKENED accounting industry oversight!"
"AND I am outraged by the administration's attempt to undermine AFFIRMATIVE ACTION - not to MENTION their stealth campaign against abortion rights - and the BILLIONS they're pouring into an all-but-useless MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM-"
"-and their complete CONTEMPT for basic civil liberties and constitutional rights - and their efforts to portray any dissent as UNPATRIOTIC - and - AND - " "-splutter-"
(Turtle-neck gut collapses.) "Urk." (Gold necklace lady appears from stage right.)
Gold necklace lady: "What happened to HIM?"
Sparky: "Outrage overload. It happens a lot these days."

So, a lot to unpack here, but I want to call this out: "On top of everything else, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown." *Everyone* knows why. They're protecting Greenland from Trump. FFS.
A "Truth" Social post from President Trump (Too long for alt text, so some text removed): "We have subsidized Denmark, and all of the Countries of the European Union, and others, for many years by not charging them Tariffs, or any other forms of remuneration. Now, after Centuries, it is time for Denmark to give back — World Peace is at stake! China and Russia want Greenland, and there is not a thing that Denmark can do about it. [...] Only the United States [...] can play in this game, and very successfully, at that! Nobody will touch this sacred piece of Land, especially since the National Security of the United States, and the World at large, is at stake. On top of everything else, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown. This is a very dangerous situation for the Safety, Security, and Survival of our Planet. These Countries, who are playing this very dangerous game, have put a level of risk in play that is not tenable or sustainable. Therefore, it is imperative that, in order to protect Global Peace and Security, strong measures be taken so that this potentially perilous situation end quickly, and without question. Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America. On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%. This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the [...] purchase of Greenland. [Trump claims the US needs Greenland for a security "Dome" here] The United States of America is immediately open to negotiation with Denmark and/or any of these Countries that have put so much at risk, despite all that we have done for them, including maximum protection, over so many decades. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"
