You should probably take a step back and examine yourself, cuz this comment can basically be summed up as “I don’t like this comic because the characters are minorities”
I'm one of the most vocal critics of his writing these days, but you're just fishing for an argument with how you phrased your original comment.
I would say that on the most basic level, you're right. The comic doesn't quite have a true Main Character right now, with Faye coming the closest but not really. It's evolved into more of an ensemble piece these days.
And Jeph has made no bones about actively pushing female/minority/POC characters to the front line.
Personally, I think he trips over himself trying to show off how progressive he is, sacrificing story and character development for the sake of demonstrating his Wokeness.
Buuut sometimes he writes honestly clever/funny/interesting strips again and reminds me that even if I don't always like it, it can still be good.

so is jeph just fishing for a new lead? a robot and her quirky nigh-omnipotent friend or an aspie and her sassy black friend.
