    Okay, but like real talk- why does he look like that...? Does he like, have a medical condition? Hes not really person shaped...

    It looks like a barrel chest, which can be a symptom of lung conditions like COPD, or just being old. Other rumours suggested it can happen because of steroid usage without appropriate accompanying exercise. Elon does seem like the kind of person who would use steroids without exercising.

    I think it's like how The One Ring brought to Gollum unnatural long life. This level of wealth, or the trappings that come with it, have mutated and perverted Elon into something that only echoes some scant memory of his former self.

    See also: Bezos, Zuck, Trump, McConnel, etc etc etc

    Friendly reminder that over 4 million children are in the process of dying because of his actions cutting foreign aid.

    You have to be truly mentally ill, or something less than human, to be this kind of evil.

    over 4 million children are in the process of dying because of his actions cutting foreign aid.

    They're dying because we've ramped up arms exports to surrounding territories in the midst of a climate crisis.

    The idea that countries like Sudan and Libya and Haiti need USAID is predicated on us ignoring why they're impoverished and war torn to begin with

    A business is made, and is successful. WELL DONE.

    Instead of a billion dollars going to the owner and, let's say, 100K in salary to each worker... what if the CEO only made 100 million, and the employees each made 500K in salary?

    Is that communism?

    The Raytheon Strategy.

    Works great if you're trying to bribe Nazi ex-pats into compliance while fighting a war of arms escalation.

    Is that communism?

    True Communism can only be achieved if we wipe all the current communists off the map, take their stuff, and impose "democracy" through an occupying military.

    Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.

    Corporations are the only β€˜persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.

    My son’s high school has been without air conditioning for 2 years. I asked around the cost of repair is near 150k

    Of course this means our government is garbage, but at the same time there are 20 billionaires living in my city. You’d think one of these fucks would be like β€œfuck dude, no ac in the school?? I’ll pay that bill right away” but no, Thats not how they think

    I hear something similar in small organizations. One guy can set up a mutual aid effort and someone else can do start a mildly controversial thing and you can see the attention get split.

    Farmers keep people from starving. Governments subsidize farmers to keep prices low. Subsidies come from taxes collected from regular people. So people keep themselves from starving by helping farmers.Β

    Billionaire "charities": The billionaires own your workplace. They underpay you but it would be even worse if you didn't have any job, isn't it? They sell you garbage products, but haven't you thought that the fact everyone else also use them might be a sign that it's actually good, you're just too needy? They help fascists into power, but did you know that communism killed more by numbers? And no more vaccines for Africa, because they now want disease-driven eugenics.

    Generally I've heard* she shuts down a lot of dissent and criticisms of her work (even legitimate "I don't like this" type passive comments) on r/comics because so much of the sub is her content and she gets disproportionate vote because of it (and like 3 other people like HowlingElk).

    A fairly legitimate complaint I've seen is the aforementioned meta fact that half the sub is her content and not much more so they have to constantly see her stuff even if they otherwise don't mind the messaging.

    There are a lot of popular webcomics on Reddit, and the only one that gets nearly as much hate is Ctrl Alt Del. And I dunno, I don't think Pizza Cake is very much like CAD. I think it's closer to Penny Arcade, which doesn't get any hate as far as I've seen.

    Vote botting, mass censorship, and a lot of misandrist posts of which I will provide no evidence of when sealions ask me about it but is pretty easy to go and search for. She has a kiwifarms page which I guess is a place where people come together to shame and harass people, not something I endorse, but if you're truly interested then just go and read it to see her haters tell you exactly why they hate her.

    I got into an argument a couple of days ago with someone with the exact same take (verbatim "billionaires are needed to stimulate the economy"), except they were arguing in favour of Chinese "socialism in a capitalist economy" (!). Funny how allegedly opposing viewpoint push the same opinions.

    I actually agree with her pro-women, pro-trans, liberal takes. My problem with her comics is they're lazy. She's just preaching to the choir.

    This is evidenced by the fact that she never criticizes the Democratic Party. When Democrats do things that hurt everyday people -- for example, when they vote to increase ICE funding, send more money to Israel, bail out corporations that are "too big to fail", etcetra etcetera -- someone with Pizzacake's following has an opportunity to demonstrate their values by making a (less popular) comic. Instead, she just parrots viewpoints that her audience already agrees with. This is grifter behavior.

    The message is good because Elon Musk fucking sucks.

    I don't like Pizzacake because of the vote botting, mass censorship, many misandrist posts, she draws rape porn, I don't personally like her artstyle, and her sense of humour falls completely flat for me. She's also the kind of political activist who starts supporting a cause a few years after it becomes maintstream in her circles.

    Lemmings have decided to upvote Pizzacakeslop and downvote anyone who criticizes these comics. They're lazy as hell, and there are many better artists out there, but Pizzacake has a winning formula of posting agreeable political positions.

    Doesn't matter that the art is bad and the comics aren't funny, people agree with the main point.

    Maybe, maybe not. Kind of hard to believe all those votes are legit when every single comment section is people talking about the controversies. They definitely picked the correct comic panel to post to this audience, if anything.

    The PRIMARY reason Elon Musk is ALLOWED to hold that much nonexistent money is because the alt-right pipeline starts in middle school, where kids are starting to form their own identities, and having the biggest autistic tech bro HOLD the most money INFLUENCES the youth - primarily unsocialized boys - thus resulting in this swath of a demographic positively influenced by Musk to consciously and unconsciously choose to go into STEM, thus ensuring the next generation of Americans has enough XYZ workers as They predict They will need in ten years. That what it means when your culture is engineered; we create multiple pipelines to get boys to do the work to become men, cuz the girls generally know what to do BUT THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS ACROSS AXISES!
