Oh shit that’s young… now Rest in Piss
Can’t believe another anti-vax guy was killed by a preventable and treatable condition. Prostate cancer is one of the more survivable forms of cancer (10-year relative survival rate of 98% with proper treatment). I wonder if he did the fruit juice enemas like Steve Jobs or he just tried to Straight Edge his way through it, because he didn’t want to live with Low T.
I looked it up after reading this comment
He says he tried Ivermectin to treat his cancer lol. Npr article about it, says he didn’t discuss any specifics of his treatment other than that
Edit: newer article indicates he eventually did seek actual treatment
He probably sought actual treatment too late. Prostate cancer that is caught early enough is basically a non-issue.
Think it depends. Like a lot of other cancer stuff, there’s variability. Most of the common prostate cancer is that easy and in fact they don’t even treat it. My wife’s grandfather was told they would basically do nothing until it started getting bad., and he died of unrelated heart failure years later without his cancer progressing.
Sounds like his was not so livable. Also unclear if he tried ivermectin instead of traditional treatment, or as an additional hail Mary. I’ve known people who had cancer and they tried anything and everything alongside their treatment, in case anything would help. I also knew one guy that thought just vitamin c would cure his cancer and declined any other treatment, and got killed by what may have been a supremely treatable cancer.
Adams had metastic prostate cancer. If it spreads the survivor rate goes way down.
Took my uncle in 6 months. Good reason to get your butt checked on schedule!
Is there a prostate cancer GoFundMe I can contribute to so we can have more of this?
That’s by far the finest Dilbert comic ever, so of course it’s not from Scott Adams.
Clay Bennett makes good toons. Even the art itself is decent.
“Scott Adams is dead.”
He went from writing the quintessential office comedy comic, up there with fucking Office Space in status…
to being a Nazi piece of shit who advocated for racial segregation, and spent his remaining years sucking Trump’s asshole and swearing far-right psuedo-medicine would cure his cancer. And then he died of cancer.
Rot in Piss. The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.
I had a small stack of his books of Dilbert from when my siblings and I were younger, it was a silly and entertaining strip.
I couldn’t give those things away a few years back, not even used bookstores wanted them. I put them outside on a table with a sign “free” for days and eventually had to throw them away.
The man really cemented his legacy.
I’m surprised some MAGA asshole didn’t pick them up.
Oh wait, they can’t read.
I think this is the only comic Scott Adams should be remembered by. It summarizes him perfectly as a person.
Say hi to Kissinger! Oh, who am I kidding, we all know that was the first thing you did.
look, as an engineer, I like the Dilbert comics
but fuck that guy, and lol that he died to ass cancer
I never liked how political the dilberts comics got
Mallard Fillmore was even worse. It was like a republican version of a Jack Chick comic.
Given where the Republicans are at this point… Explain.
There was no attempt at humor or even cleverness, it was just “They are stupid and corrupt and we are right” in the comics page. It was editorials pretending to be a comic strip. This was way back in the 1990s. It pretty much existed because of Doonesbury.
Thanks for elaboration, also I feel like that may actually be worse than Chick tracts since I’m pretty sure even Jack Chick attempted to mix in some intentional humor in some of them. Sure it usually didn’t hit quite right since it’s within some of the most surreal batshit content from the era but still.
They were about how much more capable the working class was than the ruling class.
It was always political.
oh no. So anyway
Congrats to those who are still alive and not a racist piece of shit.
Hope it was painful.
1 Nazi down, 77 million to go.
Do you really think the number is that low? I’ll bet lots of Nazis have died.
Unfortunately, he wasted a bunch of time taking ivermectin and pursuing alternative treatments.
My best to those who miss him.
I’ve read mixed accounts of that.
Yes, he did try that stuff, but I’ve read some claims that he did it alongside the treatments the doctors gave him.
Like it was kind of pointless, but also kind of harmless because he didn’t let it get in the way of real medicine.
At least when it came to cancer, I don’t think anyone cited him being a denier about more effective treatments, just he was in the “I’ll try anything” mode of having a terminal illness.
Of course he had a lot of other problematic things as a die hard maga, including antivax and whining how white men have it so bad and saying Trump and friends lying was actually good because the lies were “directionally true”, but maybe just not overly bad stuff about the cancer.
The cancer prodded him to actually break with trump on the specific matter of being mean to Biden over the same cancer Adams had.
Goodbye asshole
Rest in piss.
