I call this attitude “outrage porn”… There are people that are addicted to it and ready to believe anything that makes them angry. It’s even more sad than the ‘hot milfs in your area’ ads.
Alternative take: There are definitely some people who just never seem to accept a solution, but this comic doesn’t seem to be portraying that. With the missing steps between “I’m mad!” and “Here’s a solution,” you either have to fill in the blanks to make it a more complete interaction, or imagine that the tech doesn’t care what angered the customer and is just being condescending.
Sounds more like our current timeline when it comes to everything in the world
I need to fix this tech problem … but I want to stay mad
I need to fix the ozone hole … but I want to stay mad
We need to fix climate change … but I want to stay mad
We need to do something about creeping fascism … but I want to stay mad
AI might destroy our world … but I want to stay mad
When covid arrived and the new safety requirements entered the workplace, management lost their minds and became controlling and abusive.
I told my fellow workers how to fight back but they chose to just be mad.
I initiated a fight back against management and showed them how easy it was to fight back, but still they chose to stay mad.
Because I was forced to fight alone for 10 months, I eventually got singled out and fired so my fellow workers stayed mad by redirecting their anger at me.
These people spent much of their day trying to prove just how much of a man they all were but all I ever heard from them was “Oppress me harder daddy!”
I’m free now but they are still there and still mad. Just like they want to be. So good for them! 🥰
