*affect.

"Effect" is a noun. Affect is a verb.

You affect things, and those changes have effects.

Seriously, I hate it when they ruin a perfectly good comic with that.

Also, channeling my inner coastal liberal elite for a moment, I have noticed the grammar's so much worse when it comes to the right. Not that the right isn't in the right on like 90% of issues now IMO.

Yeah, but a lot of it is left-leaning people roleplaying as very dumb right-leaning people, in order to make the right-leaning people look foolish. I've seen that tactic come in to play increasingly often these last few months. Not saying that it's happening in this post, but it does happen

Either way it's just funny. Why is anyone caring when shit like this is peddled anyway
