The online fashion magazine [Nylon] warns readers that Strange Planet’s Nathan Pyle is maybe pro-life and “we should be more careful with what we’re sharing.”

Cartoonist Nathan Pyle, whose Strange Planet alien drawings you’ve definitely seen everywhere, was discovered to be anti-abortion today, which serves as a valuable reminder that you should know about the person whose content you’re sharing.

Pyle shares his artwork on Instagram on an account called @NathanWPyleStrangePlanet, which boasts almost 2 million followers. But, he also has a personal Instagram account and Twitter, which reveals a lot more about where he stands on important issues, like a woman’s right to choose. Twitter user @anarchopupgirl found a tweet that he posted back in 2017, in which he talked up the anti-abortion March for Life in a post about his former girlfriend. He shared a screenshot of a Facebook post that she had written, which thanked “the courageous mothers” who did not have abortions, and added, “When I think of the #MarchForLife, I first think of the life story of my girlfriend, Soojin. I am thankful she was given the gift of life.”
There are plots everywhere. Thankfully, someone went back to 2017 to unearth the fact he was really happy to discover his girlfriend was born. There are all these Sleeper cells around just waiting to be activated, if you get the drift.
The Cold Civil War now has the paranoid atmosphere of the 1950s. “Beware Comrade. He’s unreliable. He harbors secret capitalist tendencies.” We’re back in the bad old days. It’s interesting to revisit the movies of the period. One on YouTube, The Iron Curtain with Dana Andrews and Gene Tierney depicts how a man’s life could hang on his utterances. The worst threat was “we will send you home to Russia!” Incidentally it has a score by Alfred Newman, consisting most of Russian classical music but ending in a stirring rendition of the Red, Red Rose.
