Feminist mistakes rape in a webcomic page and calls the author a "misogynist pile of shit ". After she realizes she was wrong she refuses to apologize and suggests he "change" anyway. Transcript inside.

Even if the comic was about rape her position makes no sense. Writing about a rapist character in a way that show's he's an evil bastard for being a rapist is wrong? What the fuck? Should we just pretend rape doesn't exist?

This is like where the feminist academics who say it's good for people to go through being falsely accused, so they understand what the consequences are like if they actually did something.

Which is exactly like saying it's good for women to be raped, so that they understand the dangers of being raped.

l like how towards the end she shifts to complaining about his drawing style, saying all his female characters "look the same" when previously she claimed she'd only read the one page of his comic

Seicair · 2012-04-08T01:07:08+00:00

I think this is the comic in question, if anyone else is curious.

errr... Sorry. Link added.

Anyone willing to bet the "rape" she survived was just someone asking her if she wanted to get coffee at 2 in the morning while in an elevator?

I’d like to add that this person is NOT the creator of Gunnerkrigg Court and has nothing to do with that comic, besides being a fan. Don’t judge GKC on this one person. The comic rocks and so does 99.9% of the fanbase. Seriously. Go read it.

he really didn't need to add that bit. it was cool of him to do so.

MRMRising · 2012-04-08T00:04:14+00:00

The great thing about feminism is that you never have to say your sorry.

Arxl · 2012-04-08T02:05:04+00:00

Guys lets face it, we cannot be called men anymore. We are ALL misogynists, no matter what anyone says nor however much proof they may have to the contrary.

Lol, the entire thing centers are her assumption that dogpile is rape

Seriously. What? She's an idiot.

Dark_Moose · 2012-04-08T01:02:11+00:00

Funny, there was a series of comics on the web comic that clearly did refer to a ranger character raping a snake character that caused a fighter to beat the living crap out said ranger character. If anything, I would think that would be the stance of the author and creator of the comics.

My internet is spotty otherwise I would post the link.

If you want to help out the Goblins comic creator then go here and vote for him to win the contest that brought the lady who bashed his comic to begin with.

This crazy lady reminds me of more than a few redditors in /r/srsmeta/.

Irrel_M · 2012-04-08T03:20:05+00:00

I had completely forgotten about this web-comic. I'm actually thankful for her reminding me of it, now I can catch updates again.

arguecat3 · 2012-04-08T03:47:08+00:00

I think we all know that the best course of action here is to

a.) draw all the women in the comic strip from here on out with "unique" and "interesting" physical traits, such as pointy, mis-shapen boobs etc.

or

b.) ignore the above and just keep writing/drawing good comics.

Haters are going to hate no matter what you do, so do what makes you and your fans happy.

Hypersapien · 2012-04-08T06:53:15+00:00

I read Goblins and it never even occurred to me that the demon wasn't talking to alt-MinMax. That whole exchange is going on between the two of them. How could anyone think that line was directed at the Naga?

opk · 2012-04-08T13:26:18+00:00

Whoever says "I'm a rape survivor, etc"?

Does that seem to make light of the subject? I mean, to me its like she's saying "Yeah, I was raped once, and a few other things happened... It was a bad day."

Jerzeem · 2012-04-08T00:23:28+00:00

Does the author have cause of action here? They were accused of something untrue with the intent of causing them harm. That's a crime, isn't it?

SuperAwsomeTurtle · 2012-04-08T03:16:28+00:00

Jesus fucking Christ that's absurd

2012-04-08T06:57:44+00:00

why bother with her? an asshole is an asshole regardless of gender.

she's an asshole.

mechdemon · 2012-04-08T22:50:02+00:00

wait wait, goblins beat order of the stick? how the hell did that happen?

ThePigman · 2012-04-08T03:15:21+00:00

This entire thing is a great example of the madness lurking at the heart of feminism. This woman not only has a problem perceiving reality, she is also too weak to admit when she is wrong. I am also deeply amused by the way she - a semi-literate mouth breather who can't punctuate - tells him that he needs to improve his writing!

Not too impressed with him either, he is way too eager to avoid the charge of misogyny, and way too polite with someone who is shitting on him and his work.

Yojimara · 2012-04-08T09:05:47+00:00

Someone should tell the author of this webcomic that the woman is now accusing him of "flipping shit" at her. She's being a total asshole. http://gyazo.com/da96e25a0ec7375538d066f2f1c47cc0

I love "Goblins"! It's a fantastic webcomic with an absolutely massive amount of heart.

Also, FYI: It's winning the contest thing currently by a little less than a hundred votes :D

Airmanken · 2012-04-08T23:17:25+00:00

I don't know why but the whole thing is because of one freaking webcomic being accused of showing rape over another comic who frankly, I don't care to read about at all.

Guys, Goblins lacks 36 votes. Let's all vote for it just out of spite.

filo4000 · 2012-04-08T05:40:55+00:00

Where does it say she is a feminist

primaloath · 2012-04-07T23:34:12+00:00

the webcomic is in such poor taste that I cannot find any reason to support it, however illegitimate the complaint against it was. To quote:

"You're marked, bitch. When you eventually die, some of my friends are gonna dog pile your soul. Hahahahahaha!"

ahem

Unequivoco · 2012-04-07T22:31:18+00:00

After reading I believe it's a stunt/troll.
