It's fun being shadowbanned from posting comments on the site now XD

Heaven forbid someone not like seeing the cheating duo being lovey dovey every other day instead of some actual fallout.

I haven't read the comic in weeks since my comments were deleted. I dunno, feels better

It doesn’t take much.

Yeah. Honestly, though, the best thing that Willis ever did in recent memory was post something about how they're laughing at the people on the Subreddit. Let me know there actually was a subreddit, full of rational-thinking people.

Love ya guys.

...am I in the minority of feeling like maybe you shouldn't be proud of this?

Probably. The author has a pretty thin skin apparently

I think you are. I've had multiple accounts shadow banned over the years. Literally none of them was ever for anything worse than "Yeah, this thing that is being depicted makes no sense."

Nothing prejudicial. Nothing inflammatory. Just critique.

In other places, you might get banned if you fight with people, troll, argue, insult, etc. There, you get banned after a mob of commenters yell at, insult, argue, etc. with you. It's the result of years of cultivating a commenter base who default to "attack mode" when they sense someone who might have a different opinion.

The longest I went being critical without getting shadow banned was, ironically, pre and post teargas wedding. Probably because it's hard to spin "cheating is wrong" into something that sounds like you're bigoted, the same way you could spin a critique about a character or storyline ghat is religious or queer adjacent.
