    Suck shit, Scott. Dude is a die hard fascist with a boot halfway down his throat. Dilbert was good satire of corporate America, but that’s not enough to detract from how incredibly repugnant the man’s views are.

      He’s been dead to most people for years, in fact.

    The creator has long been controversial. In 2023, newspapers began dropping his famous cartoon strip after he advised white people to “get the f*** away” from Black people in a controversial episode of his podcast.

    At the time, Scott suspected his cartoons were actually removed because he started to comment on “wokeness” in his work.

    He won’t be missed that much.

      I was a fan of his comic strips growing up, and still need to get around to watching the Dilbert show.

      Will I miss him? I don’t know, but it’s certainly sad that he’s dying.

    He leaves behind one of the worst legacies of any popular comic strip creator.

    Good riddance. Die soon douche!
