    Uhm… How does this make sense? The world is being gangraped by rich white men in megacorporations. This feels more like someone tries to tie the irrefutable criticism of these megacorps to conspiracy nuts and deligitimize it.

    Yes big pharma is obviously killing people and needs to be broken up. Same goes for the fast food and meat industry (for many different reasons), etc.

      Did you know that you can mix in a little truth when you’re spreading falsehoods in order to lend yourself some credibility? It’s a neat trick because some people, evidently, expect liars to only tell lies.

        I agree that this is being done. How does this make my crisicism go away?

          Because you’re completely missing how fascists use elements of truth to drive you straight into right wing authoritarianism.

      If you’re not in the US, you may not be familiar with the specific person this comic is representing. It’s not some kind of straw argument. This is the Secretary of Health and Human Services, and he is currently fucking up our Healthcare in all kind of dangerous ways. He had also been found to have a worm in his brain. The comic is accurate.
