She did fuck up with a bad take in one comic - not that the bad take was such a fuckup, but her behavior in the wake of it was ridiculous. However, that was one incident, and we have a larger trend of her publications to draw conclusions from. In light of that, I see someone who is generally on the right side of humanitarian issues, who had a bad take and got overly defensive about it. I do NOT see someone who accidentally went mask-off and revealed a true evil behind their online persona. Which, I think, is the take the reddit crowd you mentioned would have us believe.
The comic was “what if people talked to men the way men talk to women” but what it depicted was a series of situations that many men have actually experienced in their lives.
It was on reddit so whatever genuine criticism she might have earned for it was drowned out by a tidal wave of reactionary bigots trying to cancel her whole existence. It was definitely not great.

You don’t happen to have a link, do you? I tried looking for it but I couldn’t find it ;-;
The comic was left up here, but the thread is a radioactive crater that I must caution you against scrolling down into:
