    Wanting a SteamDeck isn’t the same as being racist (since you brought it up). A lot of nerds like things outside of computers and phones. In fact, some of us are pretty resourceful and reusing older devices for less waste and more privacy.

    Last year I gave away my Switch because I didn’t play it as much as I used to. Same with my old phone and hard drive. So spare me the self-righteous bullshit.

    Also your comic sucks and is too wordy. It’s a comic draw better pictures.

        I mean you could probably draw better than whoever made this comic since it’s barely anything, but still the message of the comic is making assumptions about nerds and calling us racist for being nerds.

          The comic was pretty popular back in the day, the minimal empty style had its charm, and worked well with the themes.

          I suspect the comic’s notion of “nerd” is just outdated. Or off the mark. Either way, the actual criticisms don’t apply to what we call nerds, but to something else, others have pointed out the better word would be tech bros.
