Comic Strip Title: "Debate Policies"

Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 1989, features Dilbert and Dog engaging in a conversation about debate policies. The conversation begins with Dilbert expressing his frustration with the current state of debates, where participants prioritize talking over actual action. He decides to stop participating in debates and instead focus on taking concrete steps to address world hunger.

However, Dog interrupts Dilbert, asking if he plans to buy a "Smarmy Bumper Sticker." Dilbert responds by saying he's not interested in buying one, but Dog persists, asking if he's "darn straight." The conversation ends with Dilbert's sarcastic remark, "You're going to buy a Smarmy Bumper Sticker, aren't you?" The comic strip pokes fun at the tendency for people to prioritize superficial symbols over meaningful action.
