ComicsGate
Imagine for a moment that you're lonely, you don't have many friends and the ones you do have never want to hang out anymore. Your life is a depressing cycle of barren social interaction. So then one day along comes a guy who seemingly forces his way into your life. He seems alright at first, a bit pushy, but you give him the benefit of the doubt and let him on in the door. At first things are a bit fun, you think you've found a new best bud to hang out with and share your interests with. But then, slowly, but ever creeping, your new best friend starts taking liberties. Suddenly he's hanging out at your house almost all day long, he's sleeping on your couch, ordering PPV movies off your cable subscription, he's eating all your food, ordering pizzas and making you fit the bill. Before long your new best bud is a manchild mooching off your good graces, taking advantage of you and wrecking your shit without any remorse or regret.
This is the current state of the comics industry as of 2017.
Beginning back around the new millennium's budding childhood, a group of feminist regressives began an exploitative invasion of various interest groups and social communities, in turn invading the industries and companies that catered to them. One of these was the comic book industry and their community of largely beta male, interpersonal outcasts and affection starved, social spaz artists.
This group of women forced their way on into the door of the industry, seemingly offering comradery and companionship in the guise of "making the industry more inclusive to women", with a long list of good intentions and a boatload of boobs to go along with them. These "Milkshake Girls" were readily invited on into the loser's tree house with open arms and high hopes of finally losing their virginity.
Unfortunately these women had no genuine interest in their proverbial playthings and simply sought to vindictively wreck their shit out of malcontentive malice and indignant spite. All the while strip mining the entire industry for as much short term gains as they could garner before the inevitable fallout.
Milkshake Wars - Attack Of The SJWs
Your goldfish died. It's sad, we know. Your goldfish died because you didn't feed it enough. The social justice warrior response to such a problem is simple... continuously dump food into the fish bowl until, oh, oops, your replacement fish died.
SJWs have almost no cognitive concept of moderation or subtlety. They want to change the world, but they've put so little thought into it that their only solution is to destroy the very world they're trying to change. And their inevitable response to this is, "Well I guess it wasn't worth saving then."
Whether a product of laziness or a lack of real commitment to the cause, an SJW seeks divisive domination as their only path of persuasion and influence. The comic book industry is, by far, one of the best examples of this riotous and recklessly inefficient ideology put into play. Over the past few years these types, largely comprised of faux feminists, have taken a proverbial crowbar to the fan base and have relentlessly beaten readers with the most cringe ridden cacophony of crowing complaints and canon cracking cast cutting.

Milkshake Wars - Revenge Of The Fanboys
It didn't take very long for fans to see the writing on the wall, or in their comics as the case was, and to start voicing concern and complaints over the continuously sweeping changes that were turning their beloved fandom into an overly transparent political platform for disingenuous dissidents and self-oppressing opportunists. The fan cries were of course met with scoffing belittlement and condescension. After all, if someone carries a banner of peace, you can't rightly criticize anything they do, or else you clearly oppose peace.
This is the battle standard of SJWs, who wrap themselves in amity addled armor, their "good intentions" paving the road right on into hell on earth. Any contrary complaints are cut down with ad hominems, the well poisoned and pointed at for pity points. In the wake of these attacks there was seemingly little fans could do to stop their beloved interest from being forcibly gang raped and gutted by these industry shills and shanks.
But like a band of rebels on the run the fandom began to rise and reorganize itself. YouTube channels, web forums and other social media sanctuaries allowed fans to quickly organize against the attacks and to educate and inform the fan base of exactly which comics had been compromised. A collective effort to actively starve the invading parasites of any revenue to prevent them from spreading further into the fandom.
Milkshake Wars - Fall Of The Industry
Like asking a fox for suggestions on how to build a better hen house, the comic book industry had essentially engineered their own inflamed fall. By inviting a group of play-pretend comic creators into their club in exchange for promises of virgin rage relief they had cucked themselves into a corner. Desperate to try and stave off the inevitable self-destruction they began dumping huge amounts of money into adverticles, paying regressive feminist rags like The Mary Sue to constantly promote and push their pandering products.
Attacking their existing fan base, while hemorrhaging huge amounts of cash into an attempt to replace it with a delusionary demographic that simply didn't exist, managed to keep up the appearance of market stability... for a while. But eventually they ran out of money to keep up the advertising onslaught and it very quickly became apparent that the sales figure equality was being unequally funded on the advertisement level.
Without the overzealous advertising things began circling the drain, largely in the beginning of 2017. A point at which most people really began to tire of the incessant SJW indoctrination. The first major blowout occurred when The Washington Post dropped their graphic novel best seller list like a bad habit. A bitch slap of reality which left the industry reeling in shock as comic book pros were left dangling over the drain, their coming demise now indisputable, any doubts were already drowning.
Some shills, still in a desperate panic to try and save their sinking ship of SJWs began slashing costs by giving professional comic writers and artists the boot in favor of flunkies they found on Fur Affinity, DeviantArt and the like. These amateur hour artists could be paid peanuts and in exchange were allowed free reign to fuck up the entire industry even further than before.
This eventually culminated in a 91% REVENUE DROP by September of 2017.
Comic Pro PTSD (Panic, Threats, Slander and Derangement)
The regressive feminists and social justice white knights that caused all this collapse, chaos and collateral damage have about as much introspection and self awareness as the one dimensional, Mary Sue self-insert characters they create to try and replace existing fan favorites. As such it's impossible for them to ever admit any kind of fault or wrong doing, even when they wind up doing things that are quite obviously batshit insane and/or illegal.
Now certainly one can understand that sanity is a luxury when you've trapped yourself into a giant flaming shit bag of your own making, but you would think after tripping over their own self-destructive stupidity enough times they'd eventually wisen up a bit and stop trying to double down on their delusional, single player, dick licking deflection.
Unfortunately the "Comic Pros" of the industry didn't know when to stop which eventually led to the exposure of a private FaceBook group used by "Comic Pros" for the purposes of collusion and conspiring attacks against the fan base.
No, you didn't read that incorrectly, the "professionals" of the comic book industry had a private FaceBook group wherein they specifically sought to target, harass and physically assault their own customers!
If it's not apparent yet that the inmates are literally running the asylum over on the liberal end of the political spectrum... yeah, yeah ya best check yerself there, Edith.
B. Clay Moore
The man who officially kicked off ComicGate! In the before mentioned not-so-secret FaceBook group for comic pros and insiders B. Clay Moore openly conspired to commit politically motivated violence to intimidate and silence someone he disagreed with. To put that another way, B. Clay Moore is, by legal definition, a TERRORIST!
This particular terrorist seems to have violent tendencies, not only wanting to physically intimidate and assault patrons of a comic book convention for having a difference of political ideology, but even in his artistic work which he seems to use as an outlet to let off steam and to keep himself from losing control and attacking people in the real world, as can be surmised from tweets like this one...
When confronted about this exposed industry insider FaceBook group and his plans to commit acts of terrorism he immediately began backpedaling. He attempted to play it all off as some kind of silly joke and that everyone was just misinterpreting his openly admitted intentions to physically assault someone for their political beliefs. Apparently making terror threats is considered comedy gold in the comic book world, at least according to B. Clay Moore and one would presume his employers and colleagues (many of whom openly conspired with Moore in the FaceBook group).
Mark Waid
Mark is regressive feminist white knight who constantly strives to win back some semblance of his lost balls by righteously defending the virginal fee-fees of the apparently lesser end of the gender pool. Women, trans-women, feral furry bitches, hell, tri-gendered fem presenting unicorn-kin, if they've got some semblance of tits and tears... that's where you'll find Mark Waid; defending the imagined weaker sex against the vicious onslaught of condescending critique and sarcastic cynicism being cut across their babysoft skin.
So when the professional victim squad came a callin Mark wasted no time mounting his Twitter steed and taking command of the situation, informing all the weak little peons to come crying to him if they spotted the dastardly duke of Diversity & Comics... the infamous, the inflammatory, the inglorious... Richard C. Meyer!
What, precisely, Mark was planning to do when he came across Richard is a bit on the fuzzy side, but given what we know of the discussions in their private little industry insider FaceBook group... probably something illegal. Just, a bit of speculation, but given the constant crazy tweets from these loons openly advocating for violence, assault and hate crimes against people they don't agree with... yeah, not that big of a stretch.
Comic book fans of course responded to this lackluster display of pompous grandstanding by printing and selling t-shirts emblazoned with the text, "Hello I Am: Richard C. Meyer" as a means of mocking these goofballs and testing the limits of their irrational insanity to see if they'd start randomly attacking convention goers.
Bleeding Cool
While the majority of news outlets had sense enough to NOT stick their hand in a proverbial hornets nest whilst flailing about, the comic news site Bleeding Cool decided to jump right on into the clusterfuck. Not only did Bleeding Cool attempt to push a blatantly false narrative of events, painting all these comic pros up as hapless victims, when they were the ones doing illegal shit and making countless threats of violence.
But Bleeding Cool didn't stop there, oh no, they wanted to ensure that their company name was permanently plastered into the connotative definition of the word hypocrisy and began to actively engage in harassing and targeting comic fans... you know, THEIR OWN FUCKING CUSTOMERS! Yeah, brilliant that, obviously a real brain trust over there at Bleeding Cool.
The majority of this harassment was done by Bleeding Cool journalist Joe Glass, who is best described as a plumpous, perverted, transtrender. For the sake of brevity we'll just refer to him as "Jiggles" from this point forward. Jiggles is the type of sick fuck who pretends he's gay or pretends he's transsexual because he has some estranged cross dressing fetish or sissy cuck fetish he's desperately trying to pass off as a "lifestyle choice" in an effort to try and look "more normal". He actively uses the LGBTQRSTFU community as a kind of spring board for his deranged sexual deviancy. Much in the way a fat fetishist might infiltrate and encourage the so called "body positivity movement"... not because they actually care about such things, but simply because it's what they get their jollies off on. Like when a pedophile tries to get a job working with kids, not because they care about children, but because they want to forcibly molest and rape them. That's Jiggles, that's Joe Glass, he wants to fondle his crotch space while running around waving a rainbow flag.
Jiggles decided the best course of action, as an employee of Bleeding Cool, was to try and file dozens of fraudulent abuse reports through YouTube in an attempt to demonetize and demolish the YouTube channels of comic critics like Diversity & Comics and their fans/subscribers. This worked for about a day, until YouTube caught on to what he was doing and then blocked him. At which point he threw a giant tantrum on Twitter where he openly incriminated himself and his employer while whining about how it wasn't fair that he wasn't allowed to abuse and harass others. Seriously, you really can't make this shit up. These people are so deranged it defies all semblance of logic and reason. At this point it's impossible to know just how much insanity has leaked into the water supply of the comic industry, but regardless the inmates are clearly in control of the asylum.

Joe Glass just doesn't understand why he isn't able to harass people.

He's totally not talking about himself here.

Many of Joe Glass's articles are in dire need
of some fact checking.

Sophie Campbell
Another transtrender quota filler, Sophie was feeling a bit left out of the whole pity party clusterfuck. Watching all his friends in the industry first attack fans and then flip around, feigning victimhood, for in-house tranny train rectum alignment work. He wanted in on the action as well and so he decided to make like a cock carrying copy kitten and ripped off fellow tranny Magdalene. Tweeting out crazy death threats (that he would later delete), in turn inciting everyone to shell out harsh criticism and condescending clap backs, Sophie had setup the perfect play to weasel his way on into the self-harming circle jerk.
Ardian Syaf
In April of 2017 a Muslim "diversity hire" by the name of Adrian Syaf was fired after it was discovered he was adding subversive antisemitic and anti Christian propaganda messages in the art work he was producing for Marvel...
Shon C. Bury
Shon's parents were too illiterate and lazy to know how to spell Shaun so they just half-assed his name, right along with his upbringing, which eventually cultivated an overly indignant, terminally flustered manchild with an over sized ego and a giant chip on his shoulder. As bitter and angry as Shon is, he wasted absolutely no time at all jumping right on into the ComicGate fray, immediately attempting to slander the name of the owner of the YouTube channel Diversity & Comics.
Apparently his "master plan" didn't include said slandered owner sharing some fun personal anecdotes about working with Shon, which very quickly came back to bitch slap him as he then spent the better part of a week furiously trying to backpedal out of the fact that he stole another artists work, tried to pass it off as his own creation and then only wound up relinquishing creative ownership after he had completely failed to capitalize on the work for his own personal greedy gain.
This is a routine pattern for Shon, where he randomly latches on to other people's work, then tries to ride around like a tick on their creative backs, trying to suck out as much self-centered gain as possible before they drop. He has a nasty habit of trying to make other people's work look like his own, or as if he's at the center stage of it all, rather than just a bandwagon jumper along for the ride.
He does this primarily through his "talent management agency" Space Goat Productions, which is just as sleazy as it sounds. He basically runs around grooming young talent into forking over creative control of their work which he then in turn... well, destroys, in most cases. Most recently his "Nerd Boss" Kickstarter crashed and burned. He cancelled the account within a week after it only managed to get 4 backers and $131 of its attempted $25,000 goal.
Currently the only semi-viable property he controls is a Burger King Kids Club style pre-tween furry comic called "Moonlighters". Which features horrendously disfigured looking characters that turn into badly drawn furries, with statistically improbable ethnic diversity and over exaggerated faces/expressions that make the whole slop mess look like a sack full of Emojis that nobody wanted sacked up with the ass end of DeviantArt and shat out a bastard child directly into the bargain bin at your local comic shop.

Ron Marz
by punching them and calling them a Nazi.
There's not much that can really be said about Ron Marz that isn't outwardly apparent in his (many) hate filled Twitter screeds he constantly and continually shells out at the community. Ron is basically that guy who just absolutely hates his fuckin job, hates his employer, hates his customers and simply will not stop yammering on about it incessantly.
For Ron anyone who doesn't agree with him is a "troll" or a "loser" or a "mouth-breathing basement dweller" or a "fetid little underwear streak" or a "Nazi" or a... well, you get the idea. There's enough vitriol continually pouring on out of his fat head to put most Tourette Syndrome sufferers to shame! Ron has even gone so far as to openly fantasize about the president getting killed.
Ron is most likely a product of hyper-femininity. You see it's normal for men to have aggressive, manly, testosterone fueled outlooks and interests and normally men use things like sports, video games and movies as an outlet for those underlying desires. A guy can watch an action movie bad ass, read a comic about a super powered manly man, play a first person shooter and... it's all good, it's like stress relief, a way to burn off that pent up testosterone.
But then you have crazy SJWs who claim that ANY form of masculinity is bad/evil and must be actively suppressed or destroyed. And the desperate beta male losers like Ron often easily fall into their little trap, not realizing that when you take away all the normal/healthy outlets for male aggression all you wind up doing is creating an emotional bomb just waiting to randomly go off.
This is why Ron is constantly attacking everything around him, because he's immersed himself into the SJW sissy bitch, cuck culture so much that he no longer has an outlet for his testosterone fueled aggression, which eventually becomes so pent up, so bottled up that it just randomly explodes and he winds up coming across as a hot head who can't control his temper.
Women have a similar problem, although with drama/emotions rather than action/aggression. When a woman is cut off from outlets to express that need for drama/emotion in a healthy way it winds up becoming bottled up inside until it spills over into their jobs, politics and other real world constructs where it creates problems and strife. In other words it's okay pursue drama/action in fictional forms, but once you reach the point where those things spill over into your real life, especially your job... yeah, ya'll done fucked up!
How To Identify An SJW Comic
- Lots and lots and LOTS of racial recolors.
- Lots and lots and LOTS and gender bending pallet swaps.
- A statistically improbable number of gays and lesbians.
- Characters shocked and amazed whenever a character "comes out" like it's 1985.
- Purse Puppy liberalized Muslim characters that absolutely infuriate real Muslims.
- Constant emotional validation, even when failing, because no SJW hero is left behind!
- It looks like the Burger King Kids Club aka Forced\Tryhard Diversity.
- Very little action and conflict.
- Conflicts are silly, simplistic and resolved at the drop of a hat.
- Fat, ugly, unattractive characters.
- It constantly lectures, preaches or talks down to the reader.
- It hates the reader.
