Sinfest by Tatsuya Ishida is so fascinating to me, like it's one person mental decline over a period of decades in a webcomic form. Like the political evolution over the years is insane. Ishida started out as a fairly normal liberal dude, who reacted to Bush-era christian conservatism with sex-positive edgelording. He depicted Obama as over-the-top cool in a way that felt only half-ironic. Ironically in light of his later politics, he also had some caricatures of man- and sex-hating feminists. It wasn't really a heavily political strip either, there were character-based stories.

And then in the 2010s Ishida had a weird conversion to radical feminism. This took over the comic, and it became extremely political in a strident and unsubtle way.

It started out with a heavy focus on SWERF and anti-porn stuff, and there are some porn addiction arcs that it's easy to read autobiographically. Like you get the impression Ishida thinks he has a porn addiction and feels really bad about it, and radical feminism felt like an easier outlet for his feelings about it than the religion he had mocked so much before. He had drawn man-hating sex negative caricatures of feminists before, and that's ironically the exact kind of feminist he decided to become.

And how it depicts male consumption of porn is telling. Like porn is bad, but men are compelled to consume it and can never stop, because men are all irredeemably horny misogynists. It feels like a expression of self-hatred. Sinfest became a vehicle for unsubtle caustic moralistic invective, but it always seem to spill back on Ishida himself.

Ishida is heavy on the performative man-hating that male radfems usually aren't. And his main mouthpiece character during this phase is a lesbian woman.

Ishida's depiction of porn and sex work also consistently feels off, like the victims of the sex trade are drawn too sexy to really work as anti-porn. The sex workers in the comic are also literally sex robots, but clearly meant to stand in for real life human sex workers. It's very condescending.

It took a few years before Ishida fully revealed his transmisogyny. And since then it has increasingly dominated the comic. Extremely transmisogynist caricatures of transfems everywhere. Like every online transmisogynist, it has become an obsession for Ishida. And it's weird, like he has this obsession with drawing girlbulge on his transmisogynist caricatures that feels downright fetishistic.

Like I'm not usually like "transmisogynists are rotten eggs", but honestly Ishida feels like that might be true. The lesbian author stand-in, the self-hatred that extends to men as a gender, the obsessive transmisogyny. Reading Sinfest there feels like there is something deeply wrong with Ishida. He is not just a bigot, but feels deeply disturbed. And a case of extreme internalized transmisogyny and repression is as good an explanation as any.

Ishida has however gotten worse, and zoomed down the terf-to-fascist pipeline. The comic has evolved from terfy to full-on MAGA fascist. His transmisogyny has guided Ishida to darker and darker territory. There is an comic where his lesbian mouthpiece character abandons the left precisely because the left accepts trans people. He is now an anti-vaxxer and covid denialist of course, and his literal in-comic reason for distrusting vaccines is that medical scientists also favor trans healthcare.

Most recently Ishida has done an anti-immigration arc, where immigrants are depicted as evil alien invaders from pop culture. And that illustrates how self-defeating and ironic his views are. He is literally condemning immigration as an American man named Tatsuya Ishida.

Lesbian radfems beset by porn culture and the tranny menace no longer play a large part in modern Sinfest. His heroes are now redneck magahats, depicted as unfairly prosecuted by far-left cancel culture. And he seems entirely okay with their social conservatism, a right-wing redneck family has a housewife, and its depicted as okay.

By now he has done a full 180 over the last 20 years. The right-wing conservatives who he mocked in the 00s, are now his heroes.

The recurring characters and the storylines based around them are barely there, it's all political commentary at this point. When the old characters appear it's usually as props in his heavy-handed commentary.

Sinfest was never a great comic even at its 00s peak, but it was a normal comic. Now it's just a sad record of one person's mental and political decline.

So Sinfest is about a decadent urban hellscape as seen through the eyes of a mentally unstable loner with:

A savior complex toward women and girls, which in practice only makes actual women and girls uncomfortable

Simultaneous obsession and disgust toward sex trafficking, including of children, and toward pornography

Fantasies about cleansing society through heroic vigilantism against the purveyors of vice who control everything and are represented as pimps in stereotypical 1970s-style outfits with feathered hats and all

A racist and queerphobic streak a mile wide

Haven't we seen this before?

I'm sure you all know about that shitty transphobic comic artist, sinfest, aka Tatsuya Ishida. maybe you've seen one or two of his comics from people making fun of him. maybe you remember how he used to be a "male ally of radical feminists" or whatever a few years ago. I still see people spreading his shit around without realizing how terrible he is.

he supports the Jan 6 insurrection. he sees it as a "epic battle between woke gay anarchy man and cool based qanon guy" and not literally a coup

he's extremely antisemitic

like, really fucking antisemitic

like, "not even gonna hide it, evil lizard shapshifters are taking over the government and grooming your children!" antisemitic.

he blatantly supports literal nazis websites. those icons are for websites that host far right video sharing platforms, trumps new social media, and literal neo nazis

look at this shit. he's complaining about "soyboys", "the pandemic", etc. but also thinks that the transphobic ideologies that pretend to be feminists aren't mainstream. too much time on 4chan I see...

and notice how in every single one of these comics he draws himself as a tiny girl. reminder that Tatsuya is a middle aged adult man.

wait a minute. that little girl self insert looks familiar

oh, look at that. one of his older comics from about a decade ago, using that exact character, and being blatantly misogynistic and antifeminist.

terfs and radfems, let this be a reminder to you. he was never a feminist. he is a sexist transphobic racist antisemitic homophobic abilst pig. he slid past your stupid ideology on the way to full on fascism. let that sink in: radical "feminism" is just the middle point between edgy antifeminist garbage and full on nazism. if you support this guy, you are not, and have never been, a feminist.

you didn't have a problem with him drawing himself as a ten year old girl. you didn't have a problem with his blatant sexism bleeding into his comics with his fembot crap. "oh but like he's drawing the sexy women getting beat up because that's how society views women" no its how HE views SEX WORKERS. him constantly showing his fembot characters getting destroyed or reprogrammed is his view that all sex workers, and by extention all women, should either change their views or be killed.

now he's gone full mask off fascist with absolutely no subtlety or shame. and some of you STILL think he's a radfem ally. which means you're okay with radfems being nazis as long as it doesn't affect you.

anyway, Tatsuya Ishida is a nazi, and anyone who supports him is a nazi. how can you look at these disgusting antisemitic lizard drawings and still support him?

Idk if anyone cares about sinfest but I just want to remind everyone that he is a huge antisemite obviously. If you see his recent comics supporting Palestine, don't say they're "based." Remember that he only supports Palestinians because he is a neo nazi.

SIMPFEST-1

ello, so this should've been my first post here but I'm impatient

I found out about sinfest back around June when my friend was sending some of Tatsuya's current political comics on discord, I began actually reading Sinfest during October not thinking I would be that interested. I was severely wrong because immediately I was hooked shacked invested in the comic, from the old strips, to Tatsuya himself to anything that could be Sinfest related

Now, I couldn't just let Tatsuya slide, with his strange political views leeching onto his once loved webcomic? how could I, a single corpse simply allow him to continue posting shit comic after comic with no stop? so for last last few months I've been attempting at learning the old sinfest style, particularly during 2006-2008 and now I have this- enjoy!

Sinfest Is a terrible webcomic but it’s an endlessly fascinating cultural text in that it provides a window into one man’s political (d)evolution over the last 20 years. I can’t think of another single work that illustrates so well how a type of basically liberal 00s guy got radicalized by Bush’s imperial wars, their continuation under Obama and the (non response to) great recession into a kind of free-floating political extremism that rejects liberalism as complicit in America’s crimes and yet for that exact reason is able to be captured by the far right. And that’s not even beginning to get into Tatsuya’s sexual hangups!

Sinfest forums is having one of its most active periods yet with a 20 post thread. First one since the last one a month ago and it’s just people complaining about how they don’t get the jokes anymore because the comic has become too full of transphobic and right wing content to make any sense and abandoned almost all the original cast. Sinfest continues to do a great job burning every possible source of revenue left to it.

At some point like seven years ago I recall being way too optimistic on here about the Sinfest guy's potential personal growth trajectory. I wish to apologize for this. His most recent five comics establish that he is now not merely a TERF, but a TERF antivax climate-change-denialist QAnon believer.

I've talked about Sinfest turning into a conservative, transphobic mess; but apparently Tatsuya Ishida has gone so crazy that he somehow looped back to be right? His current Gaza arc is on point, and I can't believe it:
