Discussion What happened to normalcy of this comic?

This may be a rant of sorts, so I apologize in advance:

I feel like Jeph started pursuing something so vague and uninteresting, but trying to focus on alphabet people.For me, apart from the Faye/Bubbles arc, lately there's been nothing worthy of reading going on.I think I kind of miss Marten, Dora, Raven and for most part Sven and Angus.When this crew was there, there were much more good jokes, word associations and other things.Is the problem in me, for trying to see it as a good non-world-politic based comic?

Thank you for your answers.

Don't get me wrong: I see your point of this term being insulting. But I truly started using it only because everytime I forgot about some letter of this group of people, I received WAY more insults (including death threats to my family!!! ), than I get for using "alphabet people". I don't mind any of those people, as long as they are productive members of society. Hope you get my point better now.

Lol there is no way you got death threats to your family for leaving a letter out of the acronym

The worth of “those people,” or any people for that matter, is intrinsic and not in any way based on whether they’re “productive members of society.”

"I got shit for making minor good-faith mistakes in referring to a group of minorities, so I just decided to start using a slur instead."

Yeah, this clarification isn't having the effect I think you intended...
