Dykes Towatch Out For by Alison Bechdel

DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT HISTORY...
DON'T GIVE ME THAT SELFFLAGELLATING CRAP, MO. WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, WE BROUGHT THIS ON OURSELVES?!
THAT'S... THAT'S LIKE JERRY FALWELL BLAMING IT ON THE "ABORTIONISTS AND THE FEMINISTS AND THE GAYS AND THE ACLU!"
IT'S NOTHING LIKE THAT! I'M SAYING THAT GIVEN THE VIOLENCE OUR OWN COUNTRY PERPETRATES, WE SHOULDN'T BE SO SURPRISED WHEN SOME OF IT COMES BACK AT US.
BY PLACING THE BLAME ON U.S. FOREIGN POLICY, YOU'RE EXCUSING THESE VICIOUS, FUNDAMENTALIST WACKOS!
NO, I'M NOT. YOU'RE USING THE EXCUSE THAT SINCE THEY'RE RELIGIOUS FANATICS, OUR FOREIGN POLICY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!
IT'S EGOCENTRIC, REALLY. YOU THINK EVERY TIME SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS IN THE WORLD, YOU'RE SOMEHOW RESPONSIBLE.

CHIPS
PISS
DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT GEOGRAPHY..
No,
you ARE.
RAF, WHERE'S
YOUR BEACH
BALL GLOBE?.
WHAT
FOR?
©2001 bu Aliser. Bechdel
BECAUSE I'M FORTY YEARS OLD AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE AFGHANISTAN IS.
IT HAS A LEAK. YOU HAVE TO BLOW IT UP
UH... UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES, I THINK I'D RATHER
INFLATE IT.
THE WHOLE WORLD SHOULD BE JUST ONE COUNTRY, THEN YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO LEARN ALLTHENAMES!
AND FLAGS AND STUFF.
BUT I DO KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU. YOU'RE FASTING? WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO ACCOMPLISH?
IT'S A WAY OF EXTENDING OUR ENERGY TO HEAL AND TRANSFORM THE TRAGEDY.
CAND I KNOW THAT IF YOU LOVED ME TOO...
MMM... STEAMED SCALLION DUMPLINGS WITH YOGURT AND MINT
INSTEAD OF IGNORING THE PAIN AND DYSFUNCTION IN THE WORLD, WE'RE EMBRACING IT TO HELP US UNDERSTAND HOW TO REACT WITH FORGIVENESS AND COMPASSION.
YEAH, WELL, COMPASSION IS A NICE IDEA, BUT IT'S NOT GEOPOLITICAL REALITY.
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD THIS WOULD BE. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. YOU MAKE IT REALITY BY DOING IT. WE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD BY LIVING AS IF
AS IF!
