Wow, some folks need to remember that online life isn't real life...

Please, go touch some grass before you scare some normie by talking about your favorite/most-hated web comic.

pizzacakecomics has actually accurately portrayed the way men are treated before:

First panel of that comic here

[–] cardfire@startrek.website 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I see you, dutifully trying to cover all the slight and misinformation in here with proper attributions and context.

It must be exhausting.

Thanks for effort, and don't forget to breathe and keep hydrated. Thanks for trying to hold community together.

The context is that pizzacake knows how men get treated and then tries to say that it's all hypothetical.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago

Ah. And I thought the artist had actually made a good point.

You think the treatment of men by women is bad? Wait till your whole family dies, and then other men tell you to suck it up.

Or tell you to "keep the peace."

Is this genuine and unaltered? I'd have assumed it was an edit.

Yep, I think the comic was called talk. Here's another unedited pizzacake slide that shows how women act towards men who've done nothing wrong. This one is extra credit because, to her audience, the guy in this is the villain:

How does she look more reasonable when taken out of context?

[–] Wanderer@lemm.ee 6 points 1 day ago

Because you can excuse your shitty behaviour to anyone for anything if you make enough excuses to yourself.

Guilt free being a cunt. It's not your problem you're a cunt to someone, you're innocent!

Since we're adding context, I'll also point out that her community largely views the last guy as worse than any of the first guys.

[–] TwistyLex@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 days ago

I wonder if you've really never seen this panel in its original context, or if you're just a troll. My money is on the latter.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As someone who used to be a guy.. this hits

[–] TwistyLex@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 2 days ago

It's even better in it full context

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why does her actually interesting work never get posted here?

[–] Orangutanion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Truthfully she doesn't have a lot of interesting comics, most of it is very mediocre.
