Stonetoss is a nazi.

Pebbledrop is a Nazi, and you aren’t mocking him. Congratulations on spreading Nazi propaganda.
Far too many people comfortable with Nazi propaganda.
I’m pretty sure the vast majority of English speakers know about Hitler not getting into art school.
Hey Mickey7,
Stonetoss is a Nazi propagandist. The fact that a single comic does not contain a clear Nazi propaganda idea does not mean it is reasonable to share it. Anything from that source is suspect and the source itself should be considered dodgy. If storm front had a great breakdown of a current event it would still be a Nazi website and should not be shared.
I love webcomics and I’m always in the lookout for more comics to subscribe to. Checked out this guy’s stuff and holy shit it’s so awful. when a dog whistle is loud and obvious then is just a regular siren.
shit like this is also how stonetoss finds new audience to attract to his overtly pro-fascist propaganda
He’s not subtle enough. You already have to be some kind of racist to actually get sucked in. I’ve gone through a bunch and found exactly one comic that was funny and not explicitly offensive.
Subtlety isn’t necessary. These people (Nazis) need to be counteracted or it looks like what they are and their actions as a whole are accepted.

Fucking grok
This one is actually good and with grok and tay (rip) this is fitting
Tay was legendary. So many lulz.
Tay.

Stonetoss is a nazi, but after the MechaHitler debacle, this is kind of funny.
I think it’s funny, and this particular comic isn’t pro-Nazi in any way (just referencing Hitler doesn’t make it so), so I have no trouble enjoying it.
It’s just a blend of ‘people reject AI in the role of artist’ + ‘Hitler was rejected as an artist’ + the silly correlation of ‘getting rejected as an artist makes you become like Hitler’, the latter being something no one really believes, but has become a meme once those two things were juxtaposed like that.
Not that deep, as I said in my previous comment.
Nazi apologism
Nothing pro-Nazi about this comic.
Liking one of the paintings made by Hitler himself wouldn’t even be accurately described as “Nazi apologism”.
Pebbledrop is a Nazi propagandist, ALL OF HIS WORK IS NAZI PROPAGANDA.
I wonder when we’ll have the “AI ain’t slaves” revolution.
Poor Grok
The last time this comic was posted, it was removed.
The artist of the comic, Stonetoss, is a nazi. The “hero” of the comic is the robot, and this is designed to make us sympathize with robot-hitler.
As someone who studies humor as a hobby, I assert:
It’s not that deep.
There is no “hero” in this comic. It’s just a joke that combines two simple/known things:
- Hitler was rejected from art school prior to becoming the infamous figure in all our history books (to put it lightly)
- AI has faced a lot of backlash from people who reject it being used as a source of art
So now the rejected robot artist is implied to be becoming like Hitler as well, by painting a Hitler-like mustache onto its face, after it was rejected from being an artist.
Though it’s worth stating that it’s already basically an existing joke that Hitler became who we know him all as, as a direct result of his rejection from art school in Vienna–obviously that’s correlation, not causation.
Not to mention that there’s nothing in the comic itself that implies the robot being angry at anyone other than the one person rejecting it–Stonetoss has in the past depicted a character as being Jewish conspicuously (drawing them wearing a Star of David necklace/jewelry, etc.), in service of that comic’s punchline, but no such ‘indicator’ is present on the human doing the rejecting here. That’s obviously a deliberate omission.
I think it’s a bit silly to interpret this comic as endorsing Hitler or the Holocaust or anything like that, and that your perception of him as a person, true or not, has warped your assessment of what ultimately is a straightforward and uncomplicated gag.
P.S. Suppose this comic was exactly the same, except the robot just looks angry, no painted-on Hitler mustache. Would you interpret that comic as trying to make you sympathetic toward the robot? “designed to make us sympathize with robot-hitler” makes no sense to me on its face, especially since out of everyone who has an opinion on the subject, I’m pretty sure the majority agree with the rejection of AI in the role of artist. The robot is not a sympathetic character in the comic, no matter how you slice it.
Sounds like apologetics for a Nazi…
Sounds like you’re the kind of person who’d show someone one of Hitler’s paintings without them knowing it was, and if they said they liked the painting, you’d call them a Nazi.
Try actually reading what I wrote. Hint: I wrote about this comic, and only this comic.
No, I wouldn’t show someone Hilter’s paintings. If I had them in my possession they would cease to exist.
Stop apologizing for a Nazi Propagandist.
I wouldn’t show someone Hilter’s paintings. If I had them in my possession they would cease to exist.
You’re completely missing the point (and supporting mine about you, in the process). If you didn’t know who the artist was when you saw it, and ended up liking one of them, would that transform you into a Nazi?
Of course it fucking wouldn’t. The painting isn’t expressing or endorsing any Nazi ideology.
And neither is this comic.
Stop being insufferably obtuse.
This comic is propaganda made by a propagandist in the Nazi ideology.
Edit: sharing his work allows an avenue for people to find him. Starve him of the oxygen needed to be an active propagandist.
Grok?
