    I have zero thoughts or comments on this specific comic, but can we please leave pizzacake on reddit? They were already plenty inescapable enough there.

        They’re boring and lame, and they have a cultish following of people who defend them not because they are actually good, but because the artist receives abuse.

        This comic is a prime example of it. Completely unfunny, unoriginal, strawman argument that achieves nothing more than making people argue with each other.

          The only arguing here is your cult of haters. Making the comic not a strawman. It’s about you.

          The answer to the question was evidently “no.”

        are other justifications needed? seeing the same shit in the same in the same style all the time gets boring regardless of any other factor.

          When the response is ‘mods should ban this artist’s work,’ absofuckinglutely more justification is needed. Kneejerk hatred for something popular is childish. Whining about it to others is performative sneering. Expecting authority to enforce a shallow contrarian opinion is just plain shitty.

          Underlined in bold when half the complaints go ‘We’re not like that! Fuck this bitch!’

            true but wanting people to stop posting something and asking the mods to ban it are different things, if that is what u got from the original comment that is an extremely… extreme reading of it. If that is the context u had in mind for ur comment i dont disagree but imma be honest i think u misread it.

            I never asked for mods to ban pizzacake, I asked the potential audience to practice a little bit of discernment in their tastes.

            I think this is an important distinction, personally.

        My issue with pizzacake is her wildly sycophantic fans and their disingenuous bad behavior.

        So as much as I may not be a fan of pizzacake, yeah I agree she obviously isn’t as awful or problematic as a literal Nazi and thus doesn’t deserve to be maligned the same way as pebbleshit does.

        I don’t want to see this place turn into another worship space for pizzacake, but I also don’t believe that she personally deserves any ire or overt negativity as a person
