And that pertains to Mormonism how?

Droopy: I like being a douchebag to people.

Sethbag: That's nice.

Sethbag: I like being nice to people.

Droopy: what a douchebag.
Mormonism ceased being a compelling topic for me when I finally came to terms with its transformation from a personality cult into a combination of a real estate company, a SuperPac, and Westboro Baptist Church. - Kishkumen

There is just no point in having a race or "race" to the bottom, Droopy. You won that one a long time ago. The question is if you can ever rise above that.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

Any comments on the sociopolitical implications of the panels? I know you all hate my guts on a very visceral level, but what I actually wanted was discussion regarding the comic itself, not my douchebag status (which, by the way, is a misogynistic term of abuse that is clearly female-specific. I'll be expected Jack to swing into action here at any moment...).

I'm sure Mr. Schulz appreciates your appropriation of his lovable children's characters to further your racial agenda.

Please explain why you think this.

Could you perhaps elucidate my "racial agenda" and upon what basis you think it exists?

I don't think anyone hates you or your guts, Droopy. "on a visceral level" is all about internal organs, as well (viscera?). My liver doesn't hate your kidneys.

We just don't like your posts or your childish comments. You are the one that makes the hateful comments first. Then you pretend offence if someone responds.

I don't hate you, and I have no opinion regarding your guts. I do think you consistently act as a douchebag.
