Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Or maybe because she threatened illegitimate DMCA take downs of parodies on r/bonehurtingjuice resulting in mass censorship of any criticism of the fact that one of her comics was insensitive to victims of male sexual assault.

Yeah.... Based on all the relevant info and links there, I definitely don't think the hate is actually based on "illegitimate DMCA" takedown requests.
Yeah, no. A male SA survivor expressed sincere perspective, claiming the original comic insensitive. It was the top comment before it was removed with many other responses. Just read the posts linked in the comment below the one I shared. It's not incel garbage (mostly), she's an intolerable Karen. She's got the mods censoring that sub, it's one of the reasons I left reddit. (I've been banned multiple times for expressing these facts.) They ban people for being critical. I think hating her for being unfunny or having an only fans is dumb. On the other hand, hating on her for being an unapologetic asshole is fine. She's earned it.
Edit: just read the convo

literally reads the thing they linked and still doesn't agree with them
"Bro just read it until you agree with me."
Just read it again, but harder. Then you'll agree!
Don't they lock your ability to make new accounts when you get banned?
They reversed my ban from the comics sub after appealing.
It's still extremely problematic that this being painted as incels vs pizza. She has had bad takes on free health care, male survivors, and equating all criticism to misogynistic haters. She doubles down and never argues in good faith.
I really like BHJ. It's fun and chill. She just didn't like that people were being critical of her takes. The mods were actively removing hateful content and responses. They expressed willingness to help remove any offending content.
Now, you can't even mention her name on the sub without threat of ban. It's ridiculous that she'd try DMCA against something so clearly fair use. Weaponizing it like that isn't even legal. The mods couldn't be bothered to fight it though.
I politically agree with her mostly and find some of her comics sincerely funny, but she's still being a dick.
Toxic PCC fans strong on Lemmy already? This community is a lost cause
