Pretty uncool to be making fun of people with a mental disorder.
The person depicted in this comic is clearly a hoarder and is clearly drawn to be visually reminiscent of a Neanderthal or another less evolved variant.
Hoarders need help and treatment, not made fun of.
…But I guess punching down is how people have fun.
I did not for even a second believe the artist was looking to depict a realistic view of a particular species, just the standard cultural view of early humans (ie so easy a caveman could do it). So no, I was not wondering.
That’s not what I read here at all - it says “I should keep this.” Many of us have an urge to keep things, and in many cases we’re justified in doing so. Every person has had the experience of evaluating whether or not to keep an object, and I would guess most people have come up with specious reasons to tell themselves they should keep a thing. Hoarding is just taking that to the extreme. Because this comic is recognizing a tendency in one’s self it seems completely misplaced to say it’s punching down.

Homie that’s just the art style, look at how fucked up the professor dude looks. No one is saying hoarders are Neanderthals but you

I reject your comment.

If the people who need this kind of help see the comic and get upset maybe it will spur them to get the help.

Good one?
I can’t even take you serious with this train of thought lmao
Ok?
It’s far more likely to make them avoid comics in case they see another one like it and then withdraw further into their hobby.
Are you sure they wouldn’t just start hoarding comics? Lol
Found the hoarder?
Dumbest fucking comment here.
You can defend your fellow humans without suffering their problems.
Well, maybe you cant, but the rest of us can.
