Hope not. Some really fun discussions happen more often than not in right-wing cartoons than in left wing ones. Some really great, devastating left cartoons have gone nearly uncommented, whereas some right wing slapfights are epic.

That's a fine balance though. Some of what lather posts and Tori have posted recently have been marginally NSFW.

Perhaps. I can say the same thing about a whole lot of what other guys post here too: some of it is - you know. But they are not trolls, right? Nobody except Lather and now Tori?

It seems to me that trolling accusation became somewhat a standard way to block non-liberal cartoons here.

BTW, don't remember any devastating cartoons in this community. Neither left, nor right. Cartoons here are good as a discussion starting point only.

True. A cartoon's merit is partially how much discussion it provokes. As the audience gets more homogenous, less discussion will be started, as everyone will agree, "tut-tut", and read on.

Look at poli_toons, a dull fishbowl of conservative toons and members.

Didn't know about them, thanks. Will have a look.
