How is it that twatter manages to be getting worse and worse lately? Now the current "drama" in the western art community is about male comic artists not drawing women "realistically" enough and making their boobs and asses too big. Did the tumblr migration really take that much of a toll?

Is it even worth trying to make it in the western art community if you're not trying to make money? Any of your art could eventually be targeted by an angry twitter mob. Now people are harassing artists about drawing "sexy" versions of aged up characters.

I think if people checked out the profiles of accounts like this, they'd see a pattern and wouldn't be surprised. In fact, go ahead and look now. See how often they're on Twitter, retweeting and replying to shit. These people are addicted to social media and outrage and probably are unwell in the head. Most of what they say never goes anywhere, but outrage stuff like this often goes viral. You can imagine that must provide the most wonderful dopamine hit for them, encouraging the behavior. Twitter isn't the problem per se, it's just that it gives loons a platform along with the rest of the relatively more sane population.

by saying not all men you're deflecting that it's a problem generally, even if they've set up the discussion in this shitty, dumbfuck way. that's how they see it.
when people like this say 'men are trash' they're either talking in the abstract (socialisation, roleplay, etc.) or they just mean a lot of men.

>> No.4110171

>>4110159
Do a ProJared. Go ghost on everybody till it starts to die down, while you wait for that you get recipts of everything you've been accused of to prove your innocence and as much evidence to discredit your main accusers as possible. If the outrage mob loves anything more than a witch-hunt, it's a reversal.

Also never tie your identity to anything. Be like Shäd. If he got banned then all he'd have to do is switch up his style a lil bit (or claim to be a fan, since he's already trained a few lackeys in his style) and make new accounts for everything. Nobody knows his face or even much of his body so he can't get banned from jobs or conventions either.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. When you see everybody flinging shit about some controversy on twitter, just keep your mouth shut. The second you take a side on literally anything, the other side WILL come after you, especially if you're popular and doing so will get them attention.

What I mean by that is just post art and do nothing else. Don't pick sides in arguments, don't post your hot opinions, don't reveal personal info. Hell, even posting your art here (i.e. being able to be traced back to 4chan) is a risk on its own.

This
This is how you prevent it, there is no better way

Also it might be a hard pill to swallow but people don’t care about your personal life, your thoughts or opinions, if they follow you for art then they only want the art so doing anything except just posting art is bad for you in the long term because all you do is risk pissing people off with your opinions and retweets etc.

Look at sakimichan, you can dislike her all you want but she is smart, people make threads to crab on her but because she only posts art she doesn’t give them ammo to do worse. Right now she is getting shit on twitter for ageing up minors and people are coming to defend her and telling those people to fuck off because she stays quiet and doesn’t respond to that shit. In like two weeks people will forget they cared and it will not damage her in the slightest.
I have watched many other popular artists do this too and they are always the ones in the least amount of shit possible. Watch what other people are doing and take notes.

Be like James Rolfe. Never apologize. Never explain. in fact, don't even talk about it.

If you're famous, your fans will defend you, and you'll probably end up more popular and famous than when the whole fiasco started.

If you're not famous, 99% of people will go "who?" and move on with their lives.

Alternatively, be like RedLetterMedia. Shameless, callous, and uncaring. If you treat your enemies with appropriate contempt, they will have no power over you. Remember that Patton Oswalt tried to join the dogpile on James Rolfe, got burned, backed off, and was recently a guest on RLM, who bashed Ghostbuster 2016 harder than anybody, because nobody actually cares that much.

James Gunn is back directing Guardians. JonTron's career survived. Dave Chappelle is still famous and popular, in spite of recent controversies. Mel Gibson still gets to make movies, though he'll never be a leading man again.

Unrelated but yesterday I wanted to get into podcasts and reading radios, I downloaded a completely random episode of "PodCastle", a fantasy podcast, played it, the first words were an introduction of a short story by author, a "queer immigrant", stopped there. Why is this shit so important now? Maybe I should just forget about entertainment.

They were inclusive hobbies. All the nerds and outcasts were welcome to enjoy comics and tabletop way back when. Then the nerd and outcast group partially became lgbt and so comics and tabletop became full of lgbt. Maybe instead of trying to bully them and further make them outcasts the quicker solution is to just accept them as normal and then there will stop being social movements to give them that acceptance

Nice strawman you got there. I'm glad that we're not devolving into flinging insults instead of addressing the arguments.

Why are you insisting that you know the motivations of every LGBT person on earth? Why are you trying to pretend that it's a fucking hivemind? Gay kids get bullied in school, so they go hang with the nerd kids because the nerd kids are chill about them. That's what I'm describing here. I'm not saying that nerd hobbies bullied anyone, I'm saying the opposite. Chill the fuck out
>I don't want to play ttrpg with your faggot tranny goblin trying to get gay marriage accepted in the kingdom instead of taking down the evil lich
I didn't know that I played tranny goblins. I though I was playing a street sam with a renraku vendetta. Weird.
>I'm so fucking sick of people broadcasting their custom gender and pronouns and other gay shit, keep it for yourself
So what you're saying is that you're cool with the straight dudes fucking wenches after every quest but if a gay person invades your safe space you get triggered?

kinda agree with this anon

all the gays and whatnot were already a widely accepted thing since the 70's. No one should be discriminated because of whom they love, and I think most people agree with that.

But that's not really the issue, the issue are these new age tumblresque multi-gender generation who literally want to become real life fantasy animals, want to have all the rights and privileges (even more than normal people) no questions asked because they "deserve it" for some unknown reason, furthermore all the social interaction online as well as how people think, needs to be tailored in their favor and by their selfish preferences.

Their behavior by itself is bordering on dictatorship and the abolishment of free speech and expression, pretty ironic considered they are always the loudest when it comes to screeching about hitler.
