Thank you Mr. Boopy uwu
Edit: That’s it, turn that >:( upside >:3
It’s hilariously sad to me that some people feel the need to let everyone know they dislike this particular comic.
News flash: NOBODY CARES IF YOU DON’T LIKE THIS, PLENTY OF OTHERS DO!
So keep whining about how much you think a particular artist sucks, nobody is listening.
I don’t have any stance on this comic or this artist (never seen them before), but comment sections are kind of exactly for opinions to be shared.
Ah, okay, see that’s my bad, I thought comments were places for discussion, not places to whine and cry every time you see a specific artist , that’s on me.
Carry on whiners!
Opinions (even negative ones) are a form of discussion.
I get the sense that you are speaking out about circumstances relating to this specific artist (maybe they’ve been excessively hounded by a brigade of haters), but your original comment, esp. the last line was quite general, and is largely what I was responding to.
your original comment[…]was quite general

Nice work on the truncation.
I mean, do you feel that it radically changes the sentence?
While it specifies that especially the last line was general (which I agree), the sentence is still saying that Courtney’s entire comment was quite general while the very first sentence of her comment specifies it’s about this particular comic.
The entire comment cannot be general when it contextualized its subject right from the first sentence.
She is bland, puts zero creativity in her comics, makes them all in the same format.
Her messages are no hot takes, they are lame as fuck.
Everyone with the brain wants equality.
Opinions are bad booooh, let people enjoy things. Watch the new harty potter
enjoy things, but don’t fund transphobia!
new game: take a drink every time some dude posts here saying they don’t like pizzacake.
recommendation: they should be water. if you do this challenge with adult beverages you’ll die
I believe that PizzaCake is Penny Arcade for women, and Penny Arcade is PizzaCake for men.
This opinion may piss some people off, and I don’t care. The comics are of equal quality, but PizzaCake has more opinions I agree with because I, too, am a gender minority.
What’s Penny Arcade?
Here’s today’s comic:
I feel like I’m missing some plot here
Wow, the art style has changed drastically since I last read those. It’s been years and years.
They genuinely used to look a lot more like the comic in OP, artistically.
Edit to add:
This one is supposedly from the 90s, but much closer to what I remember regardless.
I think Penny Arcade’s one of the few comics where I think their character designs got worse, the longer they ran.
You’re telling me this isn’t from a porn parody?
Just wanted to let You know; I see You and You are valid.

Me if someone said my work is of the same quality as Penny Arcade:
No complaints about the comic here, but if I/we may go off on a tangent about the subject matter:
To what extent is “destroy the patriarchy” a red herring to get people angry at “men” rather than “sociopathic billionaires of all genders?”
Sexism is still a thing, of course, just like racism and all kinds of other awful shit. But those awful parts of our nature are often stoked by those in control to keep the attention off of them. “No war but class war,” as the Lemmings say.
In my little corner of the world, when I see memes about crushing/destroying the patriarchy, it’s usually in the social context of a sticker on suburban moms’ Stanley cups, or t-shirts, or even occasionally SUVs. They (mostly) hate Trump, sure, but they have no problem with J. K. Rowling or Kamala Harris.
Because that’s largely class reductionism.
Fighting class is one of the most important battles, but it is not the only one in the war on hierarchy.
To what extent is “destroy the patriarchy” a red herring to get people angry at “men” rather than “sociopathic billionaires of all genders?”
Very little. The patriarchy is not about “men better than women,” but about enforcing rigid social roles that restrict everybody. Men are expected to show strength, be emotionless, and give their lives in the pursuit of social status far more than women. They are then brainwashed by the power they hold over women into thinking this is a good thing, all the while making us all less free.
This dynamic is so powerful and so prevalent that it is the single greatest social strategy the oligarchs have access to. Every fascist movement on earth succeeds or fails depending on how well they exploit men’s place in the patriarchy. The problem with patriarchy lies not in who wears the crown, but how it turns average men into loyal foot soldiers.
On the other hand, women like JK Rowling reinforce their own oppression, as do the actually toxic women who spend all their time hating men. They ostracize other women for not meeting their standards while viewing relationships with men as purely transactional and oppositional. Transphobia is common as they seek to make rigid distinctions between themselves and men. In doing this they cement their roles in society, which only serves both patriarchy and oligarchy.
So no, destroying the patriarchy is not a distraction from class war, but an essential part in winning it. It has nothing to do with hating men, and the myth that it does is propaganda that only serves hierarchy.
