I don’t know if she’s done anything per se, but the reason I find her obnoxious is that most of her cartoons are of the format seen here, i.e. a strip in which she has an argument with someone and wins. Often the argument will be a fairly unsophisticated easy target, but will check the performative boxes required to get those shares and upvotes.
Also - as seen again in this very strip - there’s often a persecution/victim complex subtext at play, that never fails to get all the parasocial white knights riled up (edit: and it still seems to work over here too depressingly)
If Kelly from The Onion ever got rebooted as a social media liberal, it’d probably look a lot like her.
So she didn’t actually do anything bad, you just don’t like her style. I’m not sure exactly how being a successful but mid cartoonist makes you a “shit person” but I guess that’s where we are in society.
I didn’t say she didn’t do anything bad, I said I don’t know what she did. Others have in the meantime filled you in, but you’re tripping over yourself trying to get indignant over the answers to a question that you yourself framed in a loaded fashion.
I don’t think your dismissive characterisation of my position is particularly accurate either, which suggests your original question may not have been entirely in good faith…
My question was “what did she do that makes her a bad person” and you replied to my question with some vibe stuff, which I summarized, and now you’re butthurt? It’s okay to not like her comics, and that’s all I’ve read that she’s done bad.
I don’t get the big deal, I am not hiding that. Does that make my question in bad faith? Or does that make the way I summarized it hurt your feelings? I do not care, I just get really weirded out seeing internet hate campaigns against people who are fine and haven’t hurt anyone.
