Careful, an art critic got death threats from rabid followers for even remotely doing his job and critiquing this guy’s work. Wasn’t even critical, and even mostly positive. This artist is talented, but if he is criticized even a little he sends his rabid fans to harass them on social media like he did to Benstoppable, for literally doing his job. He can’t handle anything even slightly negative. And his fans are just as bad collectively. Telling the poor man they were going to kill him and telling him a thousand different ways to kill himself. And Rodriguez knew and kept sending his followers to over to keep it up.
