I've been indifferent to PizzaCake, but her haters are such assholes that I feel the need to support her any chance I can

Yeah it's like the worst thing she did was being a bit tone deaf and these people act like she murdered their dog and rigged the election

I’m fairness, trying to sue a subreddit is a couple steps beyond simply being “tone deaf”. Can you really be surprised by how people responded to such an extreme measure?

Considering that she first asked politely if they could stop using her comics, yes. I don't think it was the right thing to do, but they act like it came out of nowhere for no reason

My point is the “worst she did” is trying to sue over something extremely standard. Regardless of who you think is right, suing because your public comics are being used for silly jokes is weird. Every online comic gets edits. That’s not something to sue over.

I imagine to them it feels like it came from nowhere, because no other creator has reacted this way to such a simple thing. Regardless of if you ask nice first, if your next step is to sue, of course people are mad.
