Yes, there are some misogynists who hate pizzacake because she is a woman exercising her agency.
That is not the majority of pushback against her, just the most disgusting and vocal.
The vast majority of criticism of pizzacake is towards her lack of punchlines, constant strawmanning, the unbelievable sycophants who follow and worship her and have turned the relevant subreddit into basically /r/ChurchofPizzacake, and for pizzacake’s pattern of poor behavior in interactions on reddit and elsewhere.
There is a lot of grossness surrounding the entire pizzacake topic, yes, that’s undeniable. But to effectively chalk up all or most of the criticism as misogyny when a healthy majority of it sticks to the content of her comics or conduct in direct interactions rather than any extracurricular activities she may engage in, is just disingenuous as fuck.
I should clarify, I’m not claiming that everyone who is criticizing pizzacake is a misogynist. I am however saying that it is popular among misogynists to bully women artists and call it “criticism”, thus, the presence of certain kinds of criticism indicates an increased likelihood that the “critic” is actually a misogynist, even if the criticisms at face value are legitimate.
I shouldn’t need to have a law degree to write a comment in a comics forum.
Y’all have got to join us in reality.

I’m not on Reddit, I don’t care what the subreddit is like.
fans of [thing] are on the subreddit of [thing] saying how much they like [thing]?! I guess I should hate everything then!
Your grasping at straws here man.
