That raccoon comic guy thing is a multi-layered example of why its good to negotiate criticism in good faith. He makes every mistake:

-Choosing a stupid hill to die on

-Going the "u mad" route

-Using "principle" as a smoke screen to refuse to confront critique
Absolutely nothing about the situation out of context warrants what he's doing. He's just causing this problem for himself with his reaction to criticism.

Then concludes that people getting upset at him is a problem with them, not him.
The weirdest part if it is how little at stake there actually is

He's not damaging his reputation in the name of defending some difficult artistic expression

He's doing it, apparently, because being told he did something bad pisses him off so hes gonna make a big deal out of it
It just baffles me because there IS a way you can argue that you dont think your comic constitutes promoting rape or whatever they tell you it's doing

That requires a small dose of reflection and empathy though

And an ability to speak productively with people criticizing you
