EDIT 20090226: As this was done some six years ago, there's a lot about it that I would change, maybe strengthen. I'd definitely rewrite what they're saying just so it doesn't sound like I'm ignorant to urban culture. But people seem to really love this piece, which is what prevents it from going on the chopping block. Enjoy!

If you're gonna hate something, hate hate. Yeah, I do realize the redundency of that, but hear me out.

See, nothing pisses me off more than hypocrites and double standards, aside from the ones who are righteous in when they say "do as I say and not as I do" (but that's another topic). I especially dislike seeing people who blame one person for being a hateful racist, only to be on themselves.

I tried to show that in this comic; the black, Asian, and Latino characters are totally biased to their own race, and that's OK. Yet when the white fella tries to say the same thing, he's shunned for doing it.

My point? Hate should NOT be a double standard. Either everyone should be allowed to hate someone without being labeled a racist or bigot, or NO ONE should be allowed to hate someone at all! It shouldn't be where one person is allowed to hate someone, but another shouldn't be allowed to do the same. That double standard has to die with Pimp/Slut* and New Coke.

(* Errr... a male who has multiple partners is "pimpin" and is praised for it, yet a female who has multiple partners is a "slut" and is put down for it. That's a double standards that has to die too!)
