So the original author of loss actually lost their child to miscarriage and the comic itself is about that?

I can't find anything to say that's the case but I personally agree with this criticism:

It has received negative reception from critics and webcomic creators, especially for the shift in tone in the webcomic, and as an example of "fridging"—showing a killed or injured female character with the intention of provoking a male character.

Cos if the author is a bad gamer chud then that's exactly what he did do lets be honest and that's disgusting.

I feel weird that my take on this is dependent on whether the author lost a child because without that context its absolutely "fridging" but surely someone can lament a loss of a child in a family or a friend and put that emotion into art? Arghhh it's so confusing and I remember that comic being super edgy so it feels more "see people lose kids and you women want abortions?!" sort of veiled political energy.
