    all I have asked is for this drama shitstorm to not come here on lemmy.

    Your root comment is the drama.

    I am specifically taking issue with your treatment of this creator.

    I want you to stop having and publicly expressing a kneejerk reaction to seeing this artist’s work, if there’s no justifiable reason. You didn’t say “can we please leave the drama on reddit?” You said: “can we please leave pizzacake on reddit?”

      Things do not exist in a vacuum. You cannot divorce this creator from the context of their works and fandom. That simply isn’t how the world works.

      But I am perfectly fine with you disagreeing with my take on the matter. I only object when you impugn me with false accusations. Don’t accuse me of labeling this creator as anything and don’t accuse me of calling for prohibition and I’m fine.

      Yes, I have a kneejerk reaction to seeing this creator’s work for the contextual reasons mentioned, and I am fine with you objecting to that. If that was your point, then cool, your complaint has officially been registered. But you sure did a shitty job presenting that as your point.

        You don’t ever want to see this artist’s comics posted here, regardless of what those comics are. Clutch your pearls all you like - that’s awful. That’s terrible behavior, and you blame it on other people. Splitting hairs about how and why exactly you never want to see her work again simply means nothing.

        It is inseparable from the very drama you are whining about in the first place. It is that drama.

        You are actively participating in this abuse.

          Abuse is an absurd suggestion, especially considering the overt special treatment this creator receives on the other site. Just a bananas suggestion. Nobody is entitled to my viewership, and I am welcome to express my viewing preferences, even attempt to exert them within the realms of reason. Saying “I don’t like this content and I do not want to see more of it” is not abuse to anyone, in any stretch of the imagination.

            “Drama shitstorm” sounds pretty abusive, my guy. People are so toxic about this artist that you never want to see her work again. Have you even expressed an opinion of this content? Unless I’m mistaken, you’ve insisted you don’t even care what the comic is, because you’re automatically opposed to the “context.” You are effectively blaming the artist for the whiners who follow her around complaining about her.

            How is what you’re doing not participating in that whining? What’s the fucking difference?

            But oh, my apologies, why should anyone else be “entitled” to post anything you don’t like? What a reasonable framing, not absurd in the slightest. All you’ve done is ask that nobody ever post anything from this person ever again. That’s totally distinct from prohibition in ways that matter.
