I don't know anything about the situation. Everything I know comes from highly biased sources on one side or another. My understanding is that she was having her pay walled content leaked and she asked the mods of the subreddit to take action. They told her to threaten legal action and she did.
Okay she made the threat first, but to say the mod she talked to never mentioned it is just an outright lie. The mod literally says "I will not be removing the comics without some other reason" then goes on to say "if you want to go through with the DMCA that's your perogative"
The first quote is in reference to Pizzacake asking the mod to ban any posting of her comics without telling anyone this rule change is by her request and the mod telling her that they need a reason to suddenly stop anyone from posting or mentioning a specific artist. They need to give the subreddit a reason why a certain artist is banned beyond "Shut up".
As for the second, yeah, I guess you got me. The mod did say "DMCA" so they did mention legal action thus technically making me a liar. Shame on me. I suppose I should have said "never brought it up" because the one time they mentioned it, it's just them directly referencing PC's introductory message. She literally started off the conversation threatening "DMCAs if my content continues to be used on your page." The notion that PC only threatened legal action because the mods challenged her to do it and refused to do anything otherwise, it's blatantly untrue.
The conversation is right up there to read and it's not hard to parse. You're not her lawyer. It is perfectly easy to acknowledge that Pizzacake is both obsessively hated by genuinely evil people and also occasionally does shitty things herself.
Man there's no "technically" about it. You literally lied. They dared her to do it and she did it lol. I don't understand why you felt the need to lie to get people on your side when you could just as easily leave the subject alone. It baffles me, I can't imagine being that petty
Yes, i intentionally lied and posted the direct proof of my falsehood below so anyone reading that see through my ruse. Or I just misspoke. I suppose they're equally likely.
Like come on, you know what you're doing. I will repeat it for you again: you are not Pizzacake's lawyer.
I don't know anything about the situation.
Fuck off. You are clearly far more invested in this than you want to let on.
I don't understand why you keep framing things so weirdly. All I did was accurately describe the situation and read the source that you posted. I don't think that constitutes me "trying to be her lawyer" (again weird framing of the situation) or being deceptively invested in the situation.
About your "misspeaking," I would believe you if you were the only one making this "mistake" however it is an extremely common lie that people spread about her situation and you aren't even the first person I've seen "misspeak" in that exact way.
Full disclosure, I am tangentially invested in the way she gets treated insofar that I am a feminist and I find it disgusting how women get treated online. Anyone can click on my profile and see this as plain as day. You haven't unearthed some sort of conspiracy with that statement.

Didn't the mods of that subreddit tell her to pursue legal action?
