The artist, Tatsuya Ishida, has been surprisingly based lately.
Perhaps he's finally seen the light? I was a leftist once too...
Seriously, all I remember about Sinfest is that it became 'the radfem comic' around 2012 or so. But I took a dive into the recent years' archive after seeing one of the newer comic strips crop up elsewhere and the creator seems to have taken a hard-right turn since 2016 and especially the trans madness spiked up, now he's at the point where he's writing straight white Christian nuclear families as the unambiguous good guys where before they would've been 'too patriarchal and heteronormative' for his former radfem self to even think of drawing.
I won't claim to know what happened, maybe Ishida had a radfem girlfriend for the early-to-mid 2010s and broke up with her or something. But whatever the cause, it's always nice to see someone turn back toward the light.
Anyone clicking that comic link should also read the one before it.
One of the essentials listed: love, and it's a picture of the character's wife.
Honestly, that entire 'Tribulation'-themed series of comics from this April is worth a read. The wife also makes an appearance later in the same month to yank their daughter out of public school (actually that storyline starts in Tribulation 10, published on April 10 2022, but there are some unrelated strips in-between).
