    cool story bro.

    it’s not what you said, it’s that you said anything at all.

    did you guys ever stop to think that maybe, just maybe, the reason why she makes fun of you is because you keep coming back with more hate? that she gains far more impressions and traffic on pointing out the hate and engaging with it instead of allowing it to steamroll her? that she somehow feels empowered when she calls out the sexist and vile shit people say to her–online–in public–for everyone to see?

    of course not. why would you? you see pizzacake and you just get filled with so much raw emotion you can’t control yourself and lash out like a child only to be driven to attack…a comic artist…

    stop acting like a petulant child.

      I haven’t spoken about PCC in, possibly, multiple years. I only posted because I was answering someone’s question.

      did you guys ever stop to think that maybe, just maybe, the reason why she makes fun of you is because you keep coming back with more hate?

      Well, she’s not making fun of me because I don’t leave those kinds of comments on her posts, but yeah, this is literally what I just said she was doing. It’s called rage-baiting and it’s going really well for her because the popularity she gains from it translates to Patreon memberships.

      you see pizzacake and you just get filled with so much raw emotion you can’t control yourself and lash out like a child only to be driven to attack…a comic artist…

      If by raw emotion you mean mild disappointment at the lack of a punchline, sure.

      Just spitballing here, but it seems like you’re trying to turn me into something I’m not so that you have a target to spew hatred on. I’m not one of those people raging in the comments about “trans bad, me angry!11!” that I’m sure you love to hurl insults at on Reddit. I’m just someone that doesn’t like comics that I don’t find humorous.

        just so I can get the message clear from you.

        1. you don’t want to interact with PCC at all
        2. you have zero intention of hurling insults
        3. you aren’t a rage baiting troll.

        if that’s true then why did you;

        • click on a post about a PCC comic
        • read through the comments and pick the one comment that was rage bait to respond to
        • provide a low effort “explanation” about why anyone should hate PCC with examples of the artist “retaliating” against her outspoken critics

        I’m going to be honest with you, I’m having a really hard time understanding the logic you used to get here. so help me out.

        you say you don’t like comics you don’t find humorous, yet you go out of your way to waste your time and effort to post a comment supporting a narrative that the artist is a terrible person for…defending themselves? not only that, you continue to return again and again to defend your position on an artist you claim you don’t care about…

        from my perspective, it seems like you’re either a rage-baiting troll or you’re an enraged simp that’s upset because you feel personally attacked by a woman and now that your views are getting called out you’re too embarrassed and emotional to take a step back and evaluate your opinion.

        give me a third option here, I’m not seeing a lot of other ways to view you right now.

          click on a post about a PCC comic

          Because they’re not all bad comics and I thought this one was kinda funny, so I wanted to read the comments.

          read through the comments and pick the one comment that was rage bait to respond to

          You mean the really highly downvoted person saying they downvoted the post? I didn’t reply to them. I replied to the person asking a simple question.

          provide a low effort “explanation” about why anyone should hate PCC with examples of the artist “retaliating” against her outspoken critics

          What, did you expect me to write an essay on the subject?

          not only that, you continue to return again and again to defend your position on an artist you claim you don’t care about

          I wouldn’t be on forums like this at all if I wasn’t bored. Are you frustrated that by continuing to reply, I’ve prevented you from getting the last word in?

          give me a third option here, I’m not seeing a lot of other ways to view you right now.

          I’m someone that used to like Pizzacake’s comics and gradually went from excited when I recognized the art style in my feed to annoyed that it was probably going to be another comic without a real punchline, eventually just blocking her account entirely to stop it from showing up.

          What exactly are you hoping to achieve here? I know why I’m here (boredom), but what are you trying to get me to say that would satisfy you? From my perspective, you seem to be attempting to manufacture bigotry where there is none so you can feel righteous indignation and have an enemy to tear down.

      She’s not actually making fun of them, though, she’s making fun of a stereotype which she imagines her “haters” to be.

      The two linked examples are pretty much the definition of a strawman argument.
