I can only guess that Ishida is having ‘recent convert’ syndrome: consumed with guilt over his former bad behavior, he’s gone way into overcompensation territory, embracing the most radical fringes of feminism that can still be called ‘feminist’ and presenting them as automatically right and true–to the degree that anyone who disagrees with the overbearing zealot Xanthe is easily branded Evil and handily defeated.

Extremism used to be mocked in Sinfest (example: Seymour the sanctimonious religious nut); now, in one very specific area, it’s applauded. This is a humor-killer.

It is starting to turn against feminism, but giving it a bad name. Those who don’t already subscribe to omnipresent and all-knowing, “encompasses 99% of men” conspiracy Patriarchy idea are going to be put off by it. They feel like they are being blamed for simply being the wrong gender.

Comic makes no difference between “rapist”, “planning to rape” and “trying to talk with woman”. In comics current form, man merely talking to a woman is not done because he wants to talk with woman or even interact, but because man wants to have sex with woman. No exceptions.
