I'm confused by this part. What does Scott Adams have to do with what you just wrote and how is he (in this context) a charlatan?
- Arizhel 10y agoYeah, I don't get it. Scott Adams draws comics lampooning office politics. He's not actually an office worker, just a comedian.
- cvwright 10y agoAdams has recently come out as a Trump supporter. Maybe that's it? He's still a strange choice of target, since he's not (as far as I know) one of the crazies screaming about "cucks" or Benghazi or whatever. Personally I've found his blog to be pretty helpful for understanding the Trump phenomenon better. http://blog.dilbert.com/ http://blog.dilbert.com/
- tomc1985 10y agoWasn't he an office drone before drawing Dilbert?
- thehardsphere 10y agoHe was. His experience being a drone is where he drew his inspiration for Dilbert from.
