I agree. Her drawing style is fun but most of the comics are just pandering without any additional joke or commentary. It’s basically a political cartoon.
Everytime anything from this person is posted, there’s a swat of people that actively come in to say “I don’t like that”. Which is both, like, ok, why are you telling me this? And also, not exactly fitting your statement either.
Most people, faced with something they don’t care about, just ignore it instead of clamoring it in public.
I hate to be the one to point it out, but not all comics are jokes. They’re often used to summarize an absurdity, observation or viewpoint in a concise graphical format that’s easy to digest and share.
Certain people really feel the need to point out how much they don’t like her. You could probably add a word filter on your lemmy app to hide posts with pizzacake in the title. Wouldn’t catch all of them, but the last few I’ve seen have had the artist name in the title.
When I share other people’s work I try to post the artist in the title partly for this reason and also for searchability.
If people don’t want to see a thing it’s generally pretty easy to not see it and incredibly easy to not engage when it does slip through their filters. But alas, too many people base their identity on yucking other’s yums so they clamor on any opportunity to proclaim “I’m better than you because I hate this popular creator”

I mean, I agree with the sentiment, but the only “joke” in this comic is literally zero exaggeration on the orange clown…

You’re right, but good luck convincing anyone this comic is anything other than comedic genius.
This place loves her, and I cannot fathom why.

It’s also not telling us anything we don’t already know.
Pointless.
Yet here you are talking, not telling us anything new. Not adding anything to the conversation.
Why are you trying to convince people this instead of just ignoring the artist that you don’t care for?
I have a theory:
She made a comic strip at some point that specifically made fun of a behaviour that this guy has been called out for
When people agreed with her, whatever it was, he felt personally slighted and has had an axe to grind ever since
It’s not likely that he is capable of thinking about his behaviour though, so he’s just going to keep digging in deeper
It’s super weird you have such a strong opinion about a very inoffensive artist.

Because it echoes our opinions. I too find it banal.
Probably another astroturfing tbh. The comics feed has been getting slammed with them ever since more reddit folks have been coming here.
I’m just sharing comics of an artist who I enjoy, and honestly the only ones I’ve seen recently on here were the ones I shared.
I haven’t seen her work around Lemmy in awhile and judging by the reception it appears to be quite welcome.
Fair enough. The artists history is sketchy and lends itself to that sort of speculation
Quite possibly, a number of reddors thought they were achieving something by posting her content, since so many people don’t like her.
