...in his comic strip, Non Sequitur. These newspapers aren't laughing.

Well, I can tell that there was bound to be a crudstorm sooner or later. Hope the Hartford Courant is not one of these newspapers.

If you remember, the comic once said, "We fondly say 'Go f--- yourself' to Trump."

I can't make that out anywhere on the strip, but if you say so.....

Honestly, I would think Trump supporters would be more accepting of anti-pc sentiments, but then again they also tend to be massive hypocrites so it's hardly surprising to see people be upset.

You should always be able to criticize and make fun of figure heads and movements.

Is there some kind of outrage about it?

Being politically correct means considering certain topics or opinions to be off-limits solely because they may make some people, considered protected categories in the current social context, feel slighted. By contrast being anti-PC means opposing the idea that certain topics or opinions shoudn't be held or spoken about, not because they're fallacious and false (which is a determination that can only be done after a debate has happened), but because someone may be hurt by them.

Insults have nothing to do with political correctness. You may want to fix your dictionaries before you spout off the fact that you have literary skills that a sophomore high schooler could beat.

^That was an insult with no political correctness or incorrectness attached, exactly like the one that generated the thread.

Saying trans women aren't women is politically incorrect but it's not an insult. Learn the difference.

I was surprised GoComics replaced it. They could have listed two versions of it.
