Tom the Dancing Bug by Ruben Bolling for March 29, 2024

Just when you think objective reality can’t possibly descend to the levels of satire and parody…..I mean, how low is the limbo bar in these treacherous modern times?

Another cartoon No MAGAt can understand.

I have been saying this a long time. As a white male I have seen it my entire life, others of my cohort getting passed along, promoted and such just because of the color of their skin. When I drank I was pulled over three dierent times over the years and let go with a warning. “Wet and reckless” at the very least but they let me go. Try that if you are anything but white.

Don’t mention “rubber-stamp” in Danny Boy’s presence. He might make it another kink of his. Vladdy Boy would love to get a hold of another tape. I shudder to think.

YOU get on the plane with a 23 year-old transgender lesbian black female (?) immigrant pilot in psychotherapy and I’ll get on the one with a 56 year old white male US citizen Navy carrier-trained Christian captain and I’ll meet you at our destination…..maybe….

^ Is he a pilot on the Trump Shuttle, or KluKluxAir?

Nice idea, sir. Shame it’s never gonna happen.

Very timely, coming just as the usual suspects are blaming the Baltimore Key Bridge tragedy on ‘DEI’. They can’t stop punching themselves in the groin!

There’s trenchant political satire, and there’s pure genius. Thanks, Mr. Bolling, for yet another TtDB in the latter category. Now if only certain people would read and absorb it…

The Peter Principal, re-jiggered.

D.E.I. – Didn’t Earn It

I appreciate your strip very much. Today’s DEI is great. Thanks

Brandon Scott, the black mayor of Baltimore, just had a bunch of clowns calling him “DEI.” So he said it stood for “Duly Elected Incumbent.”

Remember when they called Obama the “Affirmative Action President”? Even though he became President by getting elected just like everyone else? And even though a much better example of an “Affirmative Action President” would someone who still becomes President even though he lost the popular vote?

I for one am grateful that overcoming poverty and discrimation leads to the most qualified airline pilots.

Do Not Feed The Trolls … uh-oh, too late. Again.

DEI is the new n-word for racists. They’re too cowardly to just say they think people of colour are “inferior”, so they claim that such people are in jobs (other than janitor) because of DEI. Pathetic weaklings.

Also, shout out to elon musk getting owned by an interviewer when he couldn’t justify that standards were being lowered due to DEI and just ended up looking like the ultimate loser.

being a gearhead, my first impression was ragging on the former dale earhardt inc race team

I will confess, I am old enough to miss the days when all airline pilots were WWII bomber pilots who could fly anything in any condition (in a perfectly calm voice: “Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. we’ve lost 3 of our 4 engines and the left wing just fell off. We’ll be landing in Omaha instead of Denver. Relax and enjoy the rest of your flight.” )

Now there’s a real good chance the pilot is a DEI.

A good kick-in-the-nads to bigots everywhere.

Sounds good, but who decides?

Love it!

DEI is now the blame of the Baltimore disaster by some on the way out in right field right. Funny how it’s a foreign owned ship with nationals as the crew. MG has also blamed Biden and the border crisis and is demanding a full investigation into the incident as she suspects illegals did it.

I would prefer someone who got accepted into a college based on their grades and not their diversity score to be my doctor.

⇧ worried that the overqualified doctor with the turban and funny accent didn’t have a good SAT score… ☺

You’ll be delayed…

They drove to work and got a DEI on the way there

Your captain is going to divert over Oklahoma for a prayer break with a cult of snake-handlers.

You can’t spell DEITY without DEI.

DEI = Driving Everyone Insane!
