I wasn't aware I had to be an artist to criticise Pizzacake.

And even without the drama on Reddit, which I don't particularly care about, her work is extremely bland and unimaginative.

Lots of posts on Lemmy are bland and unimaginative. I don't feel the need to comment as such in each and every one of them.

You do you, I guess.

You don't have to be an artist to criticize her, just like I don't have to be a critic to recognize bandwagoning. People shit on her because it's popular, not because of good reasons.

Continue to manifest reddit drama here, and argue for shitting on people. I'll take my downvotes for standing up for artists. There are literally hundreds of bigger problems we should be speaking up about, this comic artist is not one of them.

Explain the difference between bandwagoning and the majoroty of people sharing the same opinion.

Have you considered the possibility everyone is criticising her because she genuinely sucks?

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I thought she was just "bland and unimaginative"

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee -2 points 1 day ago

Most people would consider those to mean similar things.

The great thing about lemmy is that if you don't like a post, there's another one under it.
