    Please don’t start with the pizzacake shit here, too 😭

    Such a thin-skinned creator with weirdly obsessive fans. Everything about her online presence makes me uncomfortable.

      It’s also just not good art. The style is extremely bland, and the humour just… Isn’t humorous.

        I said it elsewhere, but they all feel like they’ve been AI generated, but made by a real person. They’re wildly uninteresting to look at and painfully unfunny.

        Some people love the “Every panel is the punchline” kind of material. It’s very CTRL+ALT+DEL coded. Maybe give them another few years and we’ll get a new Loss out of it.

      gonna be honest, I’d rather have not known about the drama. Separate the art from the artist.

        Weird to say that when the artist has made the art the key point in the drama. The ‘art’ kind of is the drama. Especially the debate on if roughly drawn comics that don’t have punch lines even are art. The way I feel about them is as if they’re AI slop, but done by a person. Most of them don’t even make sense, but get so much attention.

    I don’t understand the point of these paper-thin political comics. They don’t make me laugh and they don’t have a real message.

      Comics don’t have to be funny, they can be used to show a message/point of view. A great example I can think of is “Maus”.

      And if you don’t like/get the message, that’s fine. To each their own.

        Pizzacake definitely isn’t funny, nor are their political comics very sharp. Seems more like pandering their fanbase

      People aren’t sharing them because they find them funny, they do it to share their political views.

      Without realising they’re preaching to the choir.

        I don’t think a comic has to be funny per se. That’s why I also pointed out it has no substance. But yes preaching to the choir is a good way to describe what’s going on here as well.

    my favorite thing about PCC is all the muskrat alpha-boys parading around a penis envy fueled campfire while chanting prose from their culture of penis humiliation.

    • she’s a bitch
    • her art isn’t even good
    • shits not funny
    • she’s so annoying
    • she’s a slut for tricking simps to her OF

    the lines go on and on 🤣

    I’ve got a bingo card going, so c’mon you beta cucks entertain me more with your penis envy.

    We live in an era where media with certain themes always seem to get an absurd amount of negativity, with plenty of dumbasses to blindly follow it without ever thinking to stopping and thinking about where a lot of it is coming from.

    Leftists are the only one trying to fix the boat. The liberal will say we must compromise with the shooter, and try to vote him out of the boat in four years.

      “Fixing the boat” implies they are successfully doing anything other than complain. Leftists are sitting in the boat yelling at the Liberal for not fixing the boat.

      We need to stop using ambiguous terms like “leftist”. It’s way too broad and doesn’t help anyone. I identify as liberal (also too broad), and I likely believe in 90% of the policies you advocate for.

        Liberals are reactionaries who wish to return to a previous status quo. Leftists wish to dismantle the existing systems, and establish a socialist system. Two goals in absolute opposition to each other.

              In political terms, “liberal” typically refers to a political and moral philosophy based on ideas of liberty, consent of the governed, and equality before the law. However, the meaning of “liberal” varies somewhat depending on context and location.

              In the United States, liberalism generally refers to:

              • Support for civil liberties and individual rights
              • Advocacy for social equality and justice
              • Belief in government intervention to address social and economic inequalities
              • Support for progressive taxation and social welfare programs
              • Emphasis on regulatory oversight of business and industry

              In the broader international and historical context, liberalism is associated with:

              • Support for democratic systems of government
              • Protection of civil liberties and human rights
              • Free markets with some government regulation
              • Separation of church and state
              • Rule of law and legal equality

                K. Not talking about liberals in theory. I’m speaking of the self-identifying liberals as they exist in the world today. An absolute menace.

                  “self-identifying liberals as they exist in the world today”

                  The world is a big place. Not sure if you mean “liberal” in the US context, “Liberal” as in the Canadian political party. “Neo-liberal” as in Economic position of Friedman economics, etc…

                  Leftist is also a relative term and isn’t very useful. You likely believe in important structural reforms surrounding minimum wage (perhaps UBI), environmental protection, universal affordable/accessible healthcare, strict banking regulation, drastic progressive taxation, harsh penalties for white collar crime, etc… But “left” of what, I doubt youre pushing for authoritarianism or communism?

                  My point is there are literally Nazis we are fighting right now. Maybe stop with the infighting as a result of ambiguous labels.
