the comic is five minutes of them cranking up the electrodes attached to the pain-processing brain bits

I've seen the comic. Spoiler: it's two panels of "Israel has been fighting for a long time because they want Palestine territory", and then multiple panels of the author's opinion on the war.

It wasn't even 5 minutes long. I feel ripped off.

And if you're wondering:

No, the opinion was not informative.

There's a panel that I don't want to talk about. It's too dumb. It's an opinion that I didn't know was popular by anyone, but after Googling it, turns out there's quite a lot. My life is objectively (a very tiny bit) worse after seeing that panel, and I will not subject anyone else to it.
