    There might not be. The only people that read xkcd are those that can understand it, so there could be a cutoff where you just arent gonna get the other side of the “politics”

      If that was true, there’d be no need for ExplainXKCD.com.

      And even then on some of the more physics-y ones I just give Randall the benefit of the doubt that it’s funny.

      Maybe.

      It’s fairly popular in tech circles where there’s a large intersection with MAGA, or at least a more “keep politics out of my programming” attitude predating that.
