ID: A Sophie Labelle 4 panel comic featuring Stephie in different poses, saying:

Landlords do not provide housing.

They buy and Hold more space than they need for themselves.

Then, they create a false scarcity and profit off of it.

What they’re doing is literally the opposite of providing housing.

    Not all sequential art is meant to be funny.

    Side note: One of the best non-fiction books of all time is Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud.

      You’d expect a sub that’s about memes to contain memes, or, if not quite memes in the “proper” sense of the word, at least generally funny or entertaining content. This is just a brief lecture in four panels. McCloud’s wonderful comic is pretty much the last thing this could remind me of.

        “memes” in the proper sense of the word are not inherently funny or amusing. Same with “satire”, for what it’s worth.
