Overview

Begging Leftist Comic Artists To Stop Adding Unnecessary Text is a viral tweet that inspired a meme trend in webcomic and leftist communities on X / Twitter in late June 2024. The catchphrase and a red crossed-out version of a Haus of Decline comic was posted by X account @LinkofSunshine alongside a post commending conservative webcomic artist Stonetoss for his brevity. Haus of Decline's assertion that they "straight up don't like" @LinkofSunshine and don't appreciate their critique led to a trend in which people posted crossed-out versions of webcomics alongside the phrase, "on my knees begging leftist comic artists to stop adding unnecessary text holy shit."
