social justice league chats
Rob DenBleyker (warning: edgelord humour)
I have read some of this guy’s strips when they appeared, but I never paid him much attention since I rarely read webcomics anymore. Recently however, one of my friends (who is a ciswoman) posted a strip of a fuckboy who suffocates a pregnant woman with a condom. Whilst I do recognise the humour method that he used, it was still pretty cringy and disturbing. Let’s take a look at a couple comments:
Violence against women.. Misogynistic but most of all, very lazy humour
Now, if the author posted nothing but violent and misogynist humour, you could argue that this was not a reasonable comment, but she presumably enjoyed some of the other strips.
It's violence against a person the fact it's a woman changes shit it would be funny if it were a guy so it's funny when it's a women deal with it. and misogynistic? Fuck outa here with that bullshit feminazi rhetoric.
I love how it’s considered ‘fascist’ to state that suffocating pregnant women for fun is misogynist. Replacing the woman with a chap wouldn’t be a huge improvement since you would still see the horrible pain in his expression and his only known offence would be becoming pregnant. Then it would be cissexist, and arguably still misogynist but less directly.
Admittedly, DenBleyker’s unfunniness probably isn’t a secret to anybody here, but I desired to vent.
