Why shouldn’t we point out shameless grifting? She’s a Canadian who pumps out comics about American politics. And these comics are so popular they’re damn near unavoidable.
The same applies to you. People are annoyed that this blatant strategy is succeeding while more deserving artist struggle to make it. You don’t like people criticizing Pizzacake for doing so. We’re all expressing opinions on a forum, nothing wrong with that.
Residents of other countries criticising American politics is entirely acceptable, given their massive influence on the global stage. My fucking fuel prices are obscene at the moment, and that’s a direct result of the current regime’s arrogance and incompetence. And my gripe is absolutely trivial compared to many other less fortunate recipients of US foreign policy.
I’ll take a simple protest comic over the latest bullshit headline coming from that shithole country every day of the week.
It’s a global passtime.
I agree, other people can and should criticize America. But that’s all she does. She doesn’t make any comics about Canadian politics, presumably because they don’t get the same traction. It’s a grift. Which might be fine if her comics were of good quality. But most of them read like this:
Surely there are more clever ways to mock Trump/Elon/MAGA, etc. It would be great if we stopped supporting slop just because we agree with the message.
Sure, she’s got a niche. There’s plenty of other satire available if you’re not a fan. If it’s a grift, it’s not exactly harmful.
I’ve watched plenty of absolutely basic comedians entertain a crowd in my time, but I don’t wish they were all Stewart Lee.
oh no that one actually hits the nail on the head. That’s exactly how these read.

Shitting on America is a honorable thing to do no matter the reason.
Who are some struggling artists I can follow to help balance that out?
Yeah, this is a much more productive way to equal the playing field than to tear an artist down
Shameless grifting? For being Canadian while doing US politics? Pretty sure the internet is full of those.
