Anyone else had this bot sent to them as harassment in itself? Fucking disgusting

[–] cliffracer_cloaka@piefed.social 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Many times. Interestingly enough, mostly after being critical towards the alt-right (Nazis, Fascists, MAGA).

The perfidious idea is to remind potential suicides about the possibility. Imagine being that hateful.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Got one for the same reasons.

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 day ago

It made me laugh when it was in response to someone getting mad at me after arguing, but occasionally I’d make a highly upvoted comment that was related to being trans or gay and then get them, and that pissed me off. It’s not possible to prove that’s what happened without access to server logs of course, but I for sure wasn’t talking about being depressed or suicidal or anything like that on Reddit, and it was suspicious at minimum.

Lol, that service do more harm than good, it's been used by others to harass people they don't like, and people who are suicidal doesn't really care about a bot reply. It's essentially useless gesture.

It's to protect Reddit from liability. Someone offing themselves is also the alleged reason for their zero tolerance policy.

Metahumour/inside jokes for a different website/community doesn’t work.

[–] mesamunefire@piefed.social 9 points 1 day ago

It would be nice if we didn't bring reddits controversies over here. We got real stuff to talk about. Not some he said / she said deal.

Especially when it's in response to the recent discussions about how she bots her posts to reach the front page everytime, has arrangements with the mods of the sub to remove any negative comments, tried to sue another sub for making parodies of her comics(and getting mods to ban anyone who mentions that sub in comics), makes ridiculous strawman arguments constantly(like this one), and how she uses her comic as a front for her OnlyFans.

She's a parasite on the comics community and she's finally starting to be called out for it, which is why you're seeing comics like this to try and get ahead of it. She's just trying to shift the drama to something besides her actions. She's hoping reframe all of her criticisms as just a bunch of maga/incel harassment instead of actually addressing any of it.

[–] Wigglesworth@retrolemmy.com 7 points 1 day ago

I wouldn't go that far.

Every comic is a back and forth with a mental strawman. If you want to appeal to a bunch of self-righteous people on their soapboxes, daring the world to prove them wrong, well... guess what you're drawing?

If I had to wager, she knows full well and is sick of this format but has locked in to a point of no return.

She should unironically go all-in with it and make a Straw Man character for her comic identity to constantly wage war with, like a Robbie Rotten.

I can't find any information on this aside from Reddit threads and youtube vids based on reddit threads.

Who the fuck else would care about this?

she uses her comic as a front for her OnlyFans.

I haven't really decided how I feel about this. Is it legit? I could see either opinion. It certainly drives her to make whatever comics that appeal to the masses. They function as an advertisement, and I know how I feel about advertisements.

If I'm curating something that I'd publish, there's no way in hell I'd include her stuff. Banning it from a platform is a number of steps farther than that, though.

Artists need to make money, and there are certainly projects I appreciate where I'd encourage the artist's method of making money. Where to find the line between the art as advertising for money and the money as funding for the art is an interesting discussion. You can absolutely tell in her case, but she shows that the line is blurry.

Lots of outrageous accusations without any evidence, with a bit of misogynistic sex shaming to top it off. Methinks you're full of shit.

Do you know where I can see/read that they're not telling the truth?

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Not a single word of this sounds good.

which is ironic since those messages originate from people doing it to harass people

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

the only time I've seen reddit cares deployed was by chuds harassing people.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Oh, PC is in no position to criticise Reddit for spreading snark and negativity.

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

No one said snark is bad, just some of the things snarky subreddits allow.

[–] Darkmuch@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Ya, she was one only of the few comic artists I blocked as the comics never had any humor, just snark.

[–] BoycottTwitter@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 day ago

The more people that leave Reddit and get on Lemmy the better.

Dead men click no ads

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 day ago

Couldn't get banned from that cess pool fast enough. Sure, I'm blocked from the community spaces from some of my hobbies now, and it is quite isolating at times, but it's so much better without that toxic shit in my life.

[–] Wigglesworth@retrolemmy.com 4 points 1 day ago

Leave, then.

that's what I thought
