I’ll give it a shot based on wrestling with this issue a lot across 500+ comics posts:
Just in general, I don’t think this comic is a good fit here for a number of reasons.
Specifically, most comics shared here are ‘quick-hitters’ that can occupy a single window. Those cater to both mobile users as well as casual browsers, both of which describe the majority here, I believe.
Usually there’s a funny or interesting point being made, and users feed off that to get their little rush of feelings and/or a sense of something interesting… possibly something interesting to think about for a while.
Ambiguous comics or things that don’t fit in to the square box of preconceived notions can actually upset people, or at least cause them the irritation to downvote.
I find this comic to be quality work, but also on the experiential or almost meditative side. I think it would be better appreciated on a sublemmy devoted to such, or on a tennis community.
There’s also just the plain fact that readers, scrollers and voters can get addicted to the casual scrolling process, and when they feel their time is being drawn away from that process, can be impolite assholes about it. In terms of voting, anyway. And/or they’re saying “I don’t appreciate this type of content and I don’t want to see it here again.”

Hope that helps!
