Null kinda mentioned it.
Dick’s show is better/needs an antagonist.
It’s not super complicated, Dick doesn’t have some complicated reasoning and I doubt he ever sits and seethes in private over July. Or really thinks about him much in off hours.
His show is just better when there is an antagonist of sorts, and July fits the bill nicely. Especially since he’s easy to rile up.
Dick also has an unhealthy “never admit fault, double down, always be the contrarian” mentality because he’s an actual child who’s never had to have any responsibility bigger than paying a housekeeper and owning a dog.
Daxipad originally went after Eric July because he thought Eric July is making a comic as a grift + vito didn’t like him because of his comic book.
People tell Dax not to be so retarded and that Eric is cool.
Dax, who cannot apologize and say that he got the wrong end of the stick with Eric,
moves the goal posts and makes it about art and charity and integrity and story telling?
People are now giving Dax more problems because he is an ironically doing false flagging, gay ops against Eric by reporting his comic to charities and what not. + Eric’s comic does very well, he seems to be hitting all of his targets and nobody seems to complain about the art or story.
Dax, now red in the face and furious, doubles down and go hard after Eric because people keep telling him “Eric ent a bad guy, just let the nigga make his comics”. So JuJu the cow then accuses everyone of being in a right wing grift-anomics conspiracy theory that everyone is keeping Eric up because he’s a magnet for money and fame. In Daxipads drugaddled ,
forever Peter Pan syndrome contrarian has to then be against Eric because now he’s fighting a culture war and Eric, the mean, mean man is trying to censor him by…. Selling comic books and not replying to Riley‘s bad faith super chats… oh and being upset someone pissed on his grandfathers tomb stone…. And he told someone to “pull up” once…
Dick thinks he has comedy gold and he’s topping a figure bigger than Maddox.
When in reality, this is nothing like Maddox Eric July is literally the complete opposite of Maddox even when it comes to skin color.
The only thing Eric and Maddox have in common is that they both think Dick Masterson is an insufferable idiot.
