    Pizzacake is capable of communicating complex ideas using maybe four panels, minimal dialogue, and does not rely on cheap gimmicks.

    They are one of the most talented cartoonists on the contemporary scene.

    I understand their style isn’t your taste, but Pizzacake has earned every bit of praise & respect they get, not just because people are sheeple who like anything they agree with.

      Do you genuinely think this is a complex idea being communicated?

      And I’ve seen the same point made with just one panel, it’s not a new joke.

        Is this the best comic PC has ever produced? No, I don’t think so.

        But I’m trying to help you understand why they are so respected.

          Oh, I get it, I said so in my first comment. People post them because her comics share their views, not because there is any humour in them.

          Failing to understand that doing so here is like standing up in church and telling someone you’re a big fan of Jesus.

            I get it, but PC deserves the respect.

            There are LOTS of cartoonists out there I will happily tear into for being lazy &/or lame (I’m going to refrain), but not Pizzacake, they’re legit.

              The ones criticizing PC are the same accounts that always crawl out of the woodwork to attack Democrats specifically. They don’t defend Repubs, exactly, but they always try to derail conversations by throwing shade at Democrats.

                I ran into one that was willing to admit they were upset because they “accidentally” bought the nude pics tier of subscribership and thought a woman putting her nudes up for sale illegitimatized the comic somehow.

                I can’t stand her and I’m as democratic as they get. So let’s not make blanket statements here. We can all agree to disagree.

                They’re either doing it on purpose or they have no life experience and think republicans are just a smile away from changing their worldview and becoming leftists.
