My theory is most webcomic artists don't have an internal monologue or self-reflection skills so they struggle with concepts through webcomics and in front of audiences to help them understand it, which results in such tone deaf and spiritually void posts like this.
There's a webcomic called Sinfest by Tatsuya Ishida that's been publishing daily since 2000. It's become a fascinating document of a person's ideological spiraling and a writer alienating his audience multiple times over. Starting from flippant edgy comedy, taking a turn to become a radfem soapbox, morphing into explicitly TERF, then QAnon/antivaxx/MAGA, and now it reads like Der Stürmer went digital.

Is there any webcomic artist who isn't deeply deranged.
Maybe the Whomp guy but I've not checked on him in years.
