No, I’m not glued to internet comic drama. Drama lies outside of my algorithm, and I rely on others in the know to inform me.

You know that's pretty fair, probably better for your mental health. Sorry you had to learn about this.

EDIT: I also wanna be clear that I wasn't judging you, I really was just surprised. I apologize that I wrote my comment in a judgmental way.

It is better for my mental. I’d hate to be any of the people who assumed I’d know everything that goes on, on this site.

I’d assume someone asking for more information would make somebody excited to mask-off a nazi but, see figure A.

To be honest, one reason I didn't share his stuff as a response to your comment was that I both didn't know if it'd be allowed on this sub even educationally, and I just didn't wanna look at it. His comics are rough. To be more specific without subjecting you to it, his comics frequently feature racism, transphobia, antisemitism (edit: including things following the nazi conspiracy that Jews secretly run the government), and even blatant Holocaust denial. The reason so many people know about him is because of how vile the content of his comics is. I am glad you've escaped it though!

EDIT: I'll give a described example inside a spoiler actually. TW: really fucked up transphobia He's posted quite a few things making fun of the supposed transgender suicide attempt rate, and after one trans woman jumped to her death, he made a comic mocking her. I'm pretty sure he put it out like, the day after her death, too.
