Thank god we have Pizzacake to state the blindingly obvious.

Seriously though, every comic I see from her is just the most middle of the road position imaginable.

[-] justsquigglez@leminal.space 40 points 3 months ago

I've never understood the blind rage you and others have for this artist. Yeah, some of her comics can be cringe or a little too on the nose, but like... there's so many other things to be angry about in the world.

And yes I'm aware of her threatening to sue a subreddit, but IMHO that was a very "Oh no... anyways" type of situation.

Eh, OP's post seems more 'mild annoyance' than 'blind rage', but okay.

[-] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

Every comic I see from her is either "men bad", or a joke that's been made before by other comics.

She's just not funny. And me saying that seems to make people very angry.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

If you think her comics are "men bad" then you're the kind of bad man she's making comics about.

My masculinity, on the other hand, isn't challenged in the slightest.

[-] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 1 points 3 months ago

And are you getting these comics off of the redpill subreddit?

I've never seen a comic from her that strayed beyond cats and ADHD lol

[-] carotte 6 points 3 months ago

she made the same mistake as amy schumer:

she’s a woman who makes jokes these men don’t find funny. and because of this she must be a horrible person

any other justification for their hatred (like the legal threat) is just noise, imo. they hated her before she did this.

[-] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 2 points 3 months ago

Let's not conflate with Amy Schumer, she was proven to steal at least as many jokes as Carlos Mencia lol

Jealousy. They think it's ridiculous that a woman should experience such success for something so ordinary.

That's a male's privilege.

[-] gilokee@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago

Still funny. I don't really get all the hate for her.

Mysogyn is the driving force of some human beings.

[-] NachBarcelona@piefed.social 9 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

This artist's "subreddit drama" was all about vote manipulation, playing victim, and having people banned for criticizing her low effort crap. She clumsily spun it a bit into mysogyny.

Taste is subjective. It's not hate.

The artist's subreddit drama that's of absolutely zero importance here didn't come up over night.

Her vote manipulation (par for the course on Reddit), getting people banned for expressing the slightest of critique (par for the course on Reddit), instantly playing the victim in her own comics after les redditeurs got mad (par for the course on Reddit) was pretty good popcorn. If you're completely ignorant of that, of course you "don't get it".

It's a joke that's been done before, and better, by other artists.

[-] gilokee@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Everything's been done before.

I cant find it within myself to hate the safe paycheck artists of the world. Particularly her, considering she briefly transitioned to porn.

[-] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

Fair enough, but why people keep posting her content is beyond me.

[-] OwOarchist@pawb.social 16 points 3 months ago

Be the change you want to see in the world and go post some better content, then.

[-] PatrickYaa@feddit.org 8 points 3 months ago

Piracy is not a "middle of the road" position. In our niche of the web, here, in the haven of the nerds reddit wasn't nerdy enough for, piracy is a non-issue.

For a large amount of the population, it is still a criminal offense and in their minds treated as stealing (in parts ofc thanks to corporate propaganda), not as a logical answer to a consumer(and small creator)-hostile Intellectual Property Rights legal system.

[-] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

For her audience, which is mostly Redditors, it's a middle of the road position.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

Sometimes the obvious needs to be stated, because too often people are just that fucking oblivious.

[-] Squirrelanna 3 points 3 months ago

Pirating media is the middle of the road position...?

[-] sheetzoos@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

What till you realize the sub-par comics that she buys upvotes for are actually just to promote her R34 content.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)
