Where To Find Opus On Sunday

Posted by kdawson on from the what-has-our-boy-gone-and-done-now dept.

Berkeley Breathed has a note up on his site: "Note to Opus readers: The Opus strips for August 26 and September 2 have been withheld from publication by a large number of client newspapers across the country, including Opus' host paper The Washington Post. The strips may be viewed in a large format on their respective dates at Salon.com.."

    Is this Bizarro Slashdot? I don't know what this story is about. I'm guessing it's about a comic strip of which I've never heard?

    (Searching...)

    I've hit Wikipedia to learn that it's a comic strip about a penguin. Is this strip popular amongst nerds? Is the penguin related to Tux?

      A more cogent reason to censor the comics is that the US has been an invading, occupying, murdering presence in the Islamic region for many years, as well as an uneven-handed supporter of the Israeli state also terrorizing the region, so that wisdom dictates here that forbearance trumps the right of some well-fed American cartoonist to practice an abstract right to harass these people further. Not that I expect the media to do the wise thing.

    So you're saying that Muslims are a bunch of sensitive neurotic kids? Is that what you're saying!?

    There is a striking difference between perceived Islam and perceived Christianity: With Christianity, they are perfectly willing to die for what they believe. With Islam, they are perfectly willing to kill for what they believe. Now, where the truths actually lie is somewhat irrelevant.
