Ghost Leviathan posted:Isn't kinda the thing with prostitution is that abolishing it historically doesn't do poo poo for actually stopping it? Sex work in general is one of those things that will never, ever go away. One of the snags with it is that it tends to be pretty tightly tied to exploitation and human trafficking which are...bad things.

welp I read like 60 sinfest comics and every single one had to do with prostitution. Tatsuya Ishida is one laser focused dude apparently. This one's my favorite of the ones I read:  Bonus PFSC:

...wow, Sinfest went waaay off the rails from last I heard even when it went full woke. And I think it's either that the guy has ever never actually seen what a prostitute looks like outside of movies or every working girl in a 10 mile radius knows him by name. There's not really much middle ground with these people.

Is Sinfest just a bizarro version of Cerebus, where the author's views take a hard turn into filibuster and they forget they were writing an entertaining comic at some point?

Sooo...if you have Amazon Prime you get access to a bunch of books for free via Prime Reading. They added something recently called "Hit Reblog: Comics That Caught Fire", in which they give some background to the many popular webcomics we all love to poo poo on. I really wanted to recommend this book, but it's absolutely terrible. Just awful beyond words. Y'all should check it out.

Jesus Christ, it gets worse-better. When people on Sinfest's official forums tried to point out that maybe there was nuance to the issue beyond "PORN BAD SEX WORK BAD", Ishida shut the forums down completely and rebuilt them to be explicitly SWERFy.quote:July 1, 2018

I like that the largest thread on the forum is where there's a couple transgender radical feminists posting "Hi I love the comic and hate sex work and porn as well, am I welcome here?" and it's an absolute cluster gently caress.

It's pretty easy to be anti-porn when you only jack off to what you draw yourself, so congrats to him for having some kind of internal consistency I suppose

sex work is work, all work under capitalism is a master/slave dynamic. the things that are bad about sex work are also bad in every other job. unionize everything. the workers shall control the means of production

Is this like how when someone posts Far Side we always get a guy in here going "THESE ARE HIS CHILDREN TAKE THEM DOWN" or is that legit the entire book? Either way maybe tone it down some? You come across as really angry.

It’s a big chunk of the book. I’m not angry. It’s just not acceptable to hand out huge swaths of the guy’s work. This has already been addressed in this thread, so I’m not sure why saying “Not cool. Don’t be an rear end in a top hat” is especially controversial. edit: I really don’t care if people post Cow Tools again, but posting an Imgur link to half of a Far Side Book would cross the same line.

You know a lot of people might never have heard of the guy's art before seeing that gallery. One comic is cool, seeing that there's more is real cool. Knowing where to buy the book is extremely helpful. Throwing a fit that people ON THE INTERNET are sharing images without express consent of the creator is a bit strange, however. Especially if you're only going to give a poo poo when it's done to creators you, personally, like.

Are you sure everything you've ever watched on YouTube was a legal upload from the original creators? What about gifs from movies? Where do you draw the arbitrary line that it becomes too much? Edit: I don't really have anywhere to go with this but I'm looking for the Skull of Regret PFSC comic because it's swell.
