I don't want to spam the comments section by copy and pasting the same message twice, but someone else made a similar point so I'll link my response
Yes, the comic is satire. The satire is "men getting treated the way female r*pe victims get treated". Implying that male sexual assault doesn't happen or that when it does, people actually believe them, when in reality men who are victims of this often just don't speak up at all because when they are, they're either not believed, called "gay" for not enjoying it, or it ends up reported with a headline like "female teacher has sex with male student".
The fact she posted this comic on men's mental health awareness day and proceeded to engage in arguments with male victims of SA in the comments - who were then banned without a chance to appeal - as well as her past of seeking out her critics to argue with even in other subreddits heavily indicates that this was inflammatory on purpose.
...did you respond to the wrong person or are you just making shit up to be mad at because you don't have an argument?
Receipts have been posted above. Respectfully, I hope more people realize that when someone tries to paint every single one of their critics as being a misogynistic incel, that its a manipulation tactic. (Even though, yes, reddit is full of those too)
I find it really distasteful that she makes comics "in support" of trans people while denying those born as male can experience sexual assault. It's just a different, more subtle/socially acceptable form of transphobia.
Here's a r/SubredditDrama post that covers what was said before mods nuked the comments section
And another with more proof of mods nuking comments
Don't forget about the comic she made downplaying the seriousness of male r*pe on mens mental health awareness day, and the arguments she participated in under her own post with male victims of SA.
I'd argue it does more damage to directly contribute to triple A gaming companies by buying the crap they release than to abstain from paying for games altogether. People deserve to enjoy things without having to contribute to corporations to do so.
I know you're probably referring mostly to indie developers though. The thing is that this feels like a moot point to argue because we have no real way of knowing how much piracy directly harms a game developer. Maybe an indie game would have performed better had someone not "cracked" it. Maybe it would have performed worse due to people who are unwilling to gamble by spending their money on a revokable game license not discovering & publicly praising it. In reality I think if it's a good game with effort put into it, people are going to pay for it regardless - not everyone, but the vast majority of people who would be playing it, even if just because they don't know how to pirate
Look like, I assume, even though I had no pictures of myself or anything that could be mistaken for one on my profile. But he wasn't wrong about me being fruity so 🤷♂️
Still don't understand what the california roll part was supposed to mean though
Oh ok, thank you for the explanation. I also replaced it just to be safe
I recieved this gem of an insult for saying a guy was in the wrong for continuously cheating on his wife without attempting to divorce or separate. Its been my display name on discord ever since
If it helps, people seem to be a lot more open to questions and discussion here than on sites like reddit. Its pretty refreshing.
With the AI stuff, they are not just copying the work, they are stealing small creators livelihoods as well as the efforts of their labour.
They're also distributing the work and making profit off of it. This isn't really comparable to someone pirating a game in the age where digital ownership is near dead and every other new game is $60 with game breaking glitches on release
Reading the responses of the women in the comic you seriously think this situation isnt a metaphor for sexual assault?
In your other thread of replies to me you're stating that it is but we're supposed to disagree with them. I'm not sure why you feel the need to defend her so strongly that you're simultaneously making 2 conflicting arguments and completely ignoring the other behavior I mentioned but I'm not really interested in continuing this discussion with you because I've presented the facts and it's clear you're personally unwilling to consider that this comic was made in bad faith
