      Blanket downvoting stuff just makes you a useless hater. Downvote the ones that are just saying things that aren’t funny or parody. At least this one is using irony to be a comic, whether or not you care about it or the artist.

      I’m new here in the fediverse… why she is hated here? I’m out of the loop on something?

        She made a comic on reddit about “if women talked to men the way men talk to women”

        A bunch of people commented that they had personally heard women say one or more of those things

        Everyone who made those comments was banned and muted

        People made posts on other subreddits explaining what happened and were banned and muted from /r/comics even without having posted or commented in it

        She and the mods of /r/comics doubled down on future posts

        There are a number of Reddit refugees on Lemmy.

          Then she threatened a subreddit with legal action for making fun of and parodying her comics. All around a toxic person

            I was an artist online for years and eventually quit because of all the drama, and you don’t escape it, if you’re not constantly, aggressively preserving your IP, it WILL get used by others for whatever they want. I can dump boatloads of stories and links to artists who had their work used by everyone from other artists who painted over their art and claimed it, all the way to major corporations just plain stealing designs and characters.

            Out of all the “toxic” creators, maybe we should bandwagon against actual shitty people and shitty artists. Ya’ll have Stonetoss’s twitter and socials, why not focus some of this smarmy better-than-thou armchair art-snobbery on an actual toxic nazi? Literally, the same site here broadly, Lemmy, that has on it’s top trending posts, a “punching nazis” meme, does almost NOTHING to actually challenge real threats to our way of life when it’s as easy as a targeted social media campaign. I guess that takes scaaary organizing though.

            Or you’re burying your head in the sand. How are people manufacturing drama when it’s the comic creator who’s threatening people with legal action over parodies of her comics?

              I have a really hard time believing anyone cares about any of that or even has a source for truth. People are broadly taking cues from everyone else and enjoying hating a thing because it’s fun to hate.

                  I literally do not care if artists have scuffles about permission or whatever, every online artist has some tangled backstory because people are shitty and being online is a fight, that said we have so many ACTUAL fucking EVIL people out there trying to do ACTUAL bad things, it feels like this site is just full of people who can’t access actual fascists and nazis so everyone piles onto the nearest “problematic ally” just because it’s easier to tear someone down than go fight a real fight.

        Her comics are utterly devoid of humour, her art style is bland, and she states the blindingly obvious.

        Just an incredibly mediocre artist that people are weirdly supportive of.

          “A non-offensive, easily-read thing that people broadly like isn’t refined or edgy enough for me personally, so it’s weird that it gets supported by so many people who aren’t me.”

            Why dont you ignore my “performative bitching” and keep your performative bitching to yourself. I was answering the question to why she gets hate.

              And people are allowed to think inflated performance of that dislike is cringe, i suggest the two if you make up fot boring the rest of us with a duel.

              A duel fought by robots controlled by core functions of their operating systems-both arch based, controlled only in terminal.

              Left turns are eazy, you just need to reset sound and get audio playing-will you use alsa or pulse?

              Right turns are a little harder.
