But I’ve seen this posted a few places and there’s amazing number of people who aren’t able to pick up on it. For the first frame no it’s not really MSG people. It’s a British person selling opium to Chinese kids. They’re tricking them. They’re British it’s what they do. For the second frame I’m deeply concerned about how many people aren’t able to read the facial expression and body language of the two native women. Somehow some of y’all looked at them and thought yeah they seem happy despite the frowning faces and sad looks on their face. It’s implying the rape.

Drug pedaling Brits and rapacious conquistadors. That’s the message of this comic. Media literacy not at a high it seems

It’s because it’s a fucking gross depiction. Everyone gets that.

  Centurii-chan has really captured the market on gooners that celebrate these things. The artist does it all on commissions and the requests they recieve indicate their market is genuinely into that sort of thing.

    Having this be a commissioned piece certainly explains the weird MSG line.

    Most things I recall are often a lottery system of subscribers submitting requests. I was an old subscriber but I started seeing a bit of an unsettling pattern and they got increasingly porny.
    
    I don’t blame the artist one bit though. Get that money.
