Uhhh what is going on in the comments? Who is Pizzacakecomic? And why almost everyone here hate them?
She loves antagonizing those who don’t like her comics and often doubles down for extra Reddit upvotes.
From my casual observations, she seems like a messed up person who could use a lot of self care. But to be fair, I don’t think anyone taking nude photos on only fans is in a good mental state.
Pizzacake is a popular comic artist over on Reddit. She gained popularity mostly because she is extremely active in the comments of all of her posts. She is constantly chatting and attempting to make friends.
As for why she is disliked, there’s a few reasons.
The one she sites the most is sexism though there isn’t actually a lot of evidence of this outside of her own testimony.
Another is that she won’t stop talking about how people who don’t like her are sexist. She’s made multiple comics about how her critics don’t read her comics and just dislike them due to woman.
Her jokes also tend to be the easiest possible punchline for every joke. this has a kinda weird double effect because it means that her comics are extremely applicable to most people because they are generic enough that you can fit most of them into most situations. On the flip side, if you don’t like one the comics… You probably won’t like any of them… They’re all similar enough to be mostly indistinguishable other than the topic itself. along that same train of thought, if you like one… You’ll probably like them all.
As for my own opinion, I don’t really care one way or the other. She’s fine. I’ve heard accusations of her paying for likes on Reddit for promoting her own comics and so on but honestly I haven’t seen any proof myself so I can’t confirm or deny any of those.

Sexism is so rampant on Reddit that saying “I’m a woman” and getting bombarded by creeps and freaks is trivial. Less a commentary on her, specifically, and more on the degenerate nature of the community.

She’s producing liberal political comics, and she’s a woman, so the chuds will be out in full force screaming at her.
At a certain point, though, its just…
She’s fine.
She’s very clearly low effort. The art is flat, the comedy is mid, the political edginess is ten years out of date.
I wonder if Netflix will be signing her any time soon.
The art being flat as a way of saying it’s low effort is an argument I genuinely don’t understand. Comics are all low effort art wise… That’s part of the whole thing.
Comics historically have been the lowest quality you can get away with since they have to be put out every day for the newspaper. I know XKCD does more than 1 thing but the art style is literally stick figures and they’re one of the most popular web comics.
You may not like the art but I would call it a mediocre art style more than a low effort one.
Everything else I fully agree with. She gets the (unfortunately) normal amount of hate a woman gets online for being a woman. Which is why I made sure to do italics for it when I said lot. She tends to get significantly more support than hate in pretty much everything she does either way.

I strongly disagree. Plenty of comics have some very high quality and detailed art. Other comics really evolve over time, from the more basic sketches to these fully realized complex images, as the artists themselves improve. Still others are sloppy-but-ambitious, with these poorly conceived but legitimately daring efforts at capturing visuals.

XKCD is a great example of raw ambition in art. They routinely do shit with flash or with clever perspective tricks or panel gags that leverage a relatively simple style into something more. Case in point:
Perspective, emotion, action, comedy, a very well-established cast of characters from simplistic visuals. All from stick-figures. There was some real thought put into this.
Oh I’m definitely not saying anything negative about XKCD. I LOVE those comics. My point is simply that even stick figures can make good comics.
It’s fine if you don’t like the art as art tends to be subjective. I just don’t think her art is any lower than any other average web/newspaper comic.
Curse seasonal colour analysis and all of its surprising accuracy! I don’t want to be a bright spring, I want to be goth!
You live your best life in that blue dress kid and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
Mum is right about the colour, but we need more long dresses in the world, we really do.
I don’t know anything about this Pizzacake person, but I don’t think this specific comic is any worse than the average newspaper gag strip, except they wouldn’t tackle a subject like this. It didn’t make me laugh, but I also wouldn’t call it awful. I’d definitely read this over literally any Dilbert strip ever.
