Sinfest is a webcomic that I used to follow religiously for many years. I’ve watched it decline into basically a mess as it is now:
A highly pro-radfem comic in a rather misguided attempt to point out the problems of Patriarchy.
Don’t get me wrong, Patriarchy is a huge problem that needs to be dealt with. Too many men in power are trying to regain control of women by rolling back the women rights, as well as LGBT rights.
Too many men are able to get away with rape, sexual assault, etc. Women too, yes, but patriarchy is a problem that contributes to rape culture, violent treatment toward women, LGBT, and to be quite blunt: Anyone that isn’t a conservative Christian.
But I digress.
Tatsuya Ishida continued to take the comic in a rather harmful way that just does no one any favour.
*Including, and most notably: the portrayal of Johnbies.
*The portrayal on how pornography is evil.
>> Including an incredibly strawman argument that only men consumes porn, and *all* women in porn are being exploited in any shape or form.
>> This is shown that there has not been not one single female johnbie (or is it janebie? lol)
>>It has been shown that virtually all men (save exception of basically Slick, Theo, Criminy and ‘The Cartoonist’ (which is basically Tats’ self insert), Squig, and pretty much any devil-men). Obviously a representation of “#YesAllMen”
*And most recently, basically attacking on transgender and gender fluid through “hormone medicine” GenderX drug store, and “Gender Camp”.
>>He basically finally confirms and shows his true colour as being a hateful TERF that we all suspected him to be.
For a long time, I basically gave him a benefit of the doubt, but his actions just.. well, made me lose respect for him constantly. His latest chapter basically said ‘fuck it, he’s a shithead now’.
Also, he basically banned me from his new forums, just for thanking someone for being supportive about transgender people.
He also deleted the old sinfest forums, calling it “too pro-pornography and pro-prostitution” and alienated virtually 99.9% of his fans that have followed the comic religiously. We called this skyworld. Fortunately, we anticipated this and a discord server was made.
He created a new forums, which is yellow. We basically called it Pissword, and is basically an incredibly glorified Echo-chamber. More on that in the next post...
