    This subtle yet pedestrian take on Pizzacake is bad really adds something to the discussion, I feel.

        You can google it but the summary is that she handles criticism pretty poorly. Also, her jokes are mostly not even a joke. Most of them are straw man clickbait.

          handles criticism poorly

          What a pearl-clutching take. Also known as:

          After I attacked her, she reacted in a way that hurt my feelings

          Maybe, just maybe, don’t attack a comic?

            I mean from what I understand she DID handle things poorly. The issue is it happened one time and people will not let it go when there’s no reason to cling to it.

            Ah, a straw man argument. Now where have I seen this type of rhetoric? XD

            I have never “attacked” or said anything to pizzacake, and she did react pretty poorly when other people did. If you don´t believe me, google it yourself.

                Except that it is? You literally added a quote of something neither I nor anyone else said (“After I attacked her, she reacted in a way that hurt my feelings”) and then provided your own reply for it justifying her response. One her real reactions, btw, was portraying her “attackers” as rapists. You did not quote any “attacks” nor her response, but justified it nonetheless because people were “attacking” her.

                Criticize != Attack

                As a refresher, here’s what a straw man argument is:

                A straw man argument (or straw man fallacy) is a logical fallacy that occurs when someone distorts or exaggerates an opponent’s actual position, and then refutes that fake, weaker version of the argument instead of the real one.

                If you don’t see how your reply fits that definition, I’m afraid I can’t help you.

                    Who’s “this guy”? I’ve never personally talked to pizzacake and hadn’t even heard of her until after all of this happened.

                    I was did misremember. It was a comic strip where she was basically the rapist amd it got her patreon banned for a while. Supposedly because they only allow consensual content.

                    It’s funny how people who can’t stand being wrong immediately resort to ad hominem remarks with literally no basis in reality.

                    Lemmy has unfortunately turned into reddit at a more rapid pace than I was expecting.
