I'm sorry but you simply don't seem to understand how imagery and symbolism works.
The artists intent is very clear. You are trying so hard to defend this random dumb comic strip on the internet instead of just admitting it's a dumb comic strip on the internet.
I'm not trying that hard lmao. It's just not as cut and dry as you seem to think it is. The symbolism used has a few interpretations.
I'm also not trying that hard, because I've already admitted multiple times that I think it'd be a better comic without the cheating bit.
The only thing I'm defending, or I suppose attacking, is the notion that it's somehow misogynistic and incel-y.
