Seriously, a deviation where someone in a not so subtle way makes fun of
and insinuates taking pleasure in the fictional death off an "annoying classmate" titled "Fat Ass" got a DD today.


Now I don't like annoying or obnoxious people as much as the next person, but I'm utterly amazed that a piece of art that:

a. quite clearly uses the weight of a REAL person as a very negative trait.
b. Which insinuates the author taking pleasure in the death of a REAL person.
c. Is apparently shared in real life with his class/teachers and most likely known about by the "annoying person" due to this.

Can actually get a DD and not be seen as complete and utter hate art that verges on extreme types of bullying.


From what the artist said I'd probably hate the girl in question too, whatever, you don't do that shit. It's too personal and focuses on entirely irrelevant traits, simply using personal dislike as an excuse.
If someone's annoying you either ignore them, or tell them honestly their behavour bothers you. And you sure as hell don't award it with a DD.


Am I the only one extremely surprised that sort of stuff can get a DD on here? I don't question DDs when the quality is questionable, cause they're more a gift of exposition than an actual "reward". But such positive treatment of what feels like low-brow bullying shocks me to no end.

Anyway, curious if I'm the only one who feels this way.

Kind regards,
Neorice

Not the only one, but I knew I was gonna rage on it and do no good. So I let it go trusting somebody would point that out. I was quite outspoken when I entered DA about sexism but then I learned to go only for the most blatant to avoid heavy flak. It amazes me how many boob, ass, etc groups we have here.

Sorry for the late comment I just saw this and I had to empathize:D
