I think it has to do with two things. Dickwolves and Child's Play.

With the Dickwolves comic, what mattered is that if PA didn't submit to the whims of the "safe space" crowd, PA and Pax would be loudly shunned as much as humanly possible. If Pax goes down, PA goes down. If PA goes down, Child's Play goes down. I dont think Gabe and Tycho would defend PAX to the death, to see the good done with the charity go to shit.

Well except they got shit on LONG before Dickwolves came about.

You had the organizers wanting to push an agenda to redefine Harassment as unwanted looking at cosplay girls. All the while The Daring Duo were posting comics about fruit fucker and rape.

Gotta love how the anti-cosplay harassment stuff has resulted in having these puritanical "you're just asking for it" rules for cosplayers though...

I watched that go down from the socjus side of things. It seemed to me while some folks blew the comic way out of proportion, it was how the PA guys reacted to it that really kicked off the backlash. I wonder if the original blogger realised how much shit would blow up from her post...

After that though, any minor "transgression" by them was met with faux outrage from the perpetually offended. It must have gotten exhausting for them.
