He's famously against all commercialization of the strip and I think he'd feel this similarly devalues it.

That seems to be mostly about monetization and commodification, which should already be absent from shitposting.

I get that but I respect Watterson too much to assume his stance.

Well… which is it? Do you respect him too much to assume his stance or are you assuming he’d feel this similarly devalues it?
