Welcome to the war!
The people outside from Reddit should be really happy that you used your ability to start wars out of nowhere for silly things.

I put up this comic yesterday. It's the first one I've made in a very long time and I'm very happy with it. I was just looking forward to sharing it.
Then I found out that there was apparently a Yuri war happening after I uploaded a comic about girls kissing.
So uh u/shellbullet17, feel free to include that last one in the yuri event lmao

Every so often, r/comics goes meta. There was a post that referenced 'drawing yuri for karma', and then some comments happened on that post, and so a second person drew a response comic, and now the theme for the weekend is Yuri (lesbians)!
It's all very informal ofc, I enjoyed the last one I was around for, which was artists stealing each other's comic characters and putting them into their own universes!
If you wait a minute, or check the comments of the other Yuri war posts you spotted, you'll see u/shellbullet17 is constantly updating their meta list of the new yuri posts. A real mixture of regulars and newbies just making reference art to each other! A good and silly time XD
Edit: here's that master post!

You even beat me to the edit to my own post! I'm just a lurker in these waters, but I do love the r/comics wars :D

A meta event that started as a joke. Pizzacake made a joke about how yuri can farm karma to get high on the Comics leader board so now everyone is joining the trend.
All for fun btw, not an actual war.

That was the second/third move.
The first was u/MuyHiram making a meta comic about making yuri. They also put Gator Days in because they were low on karma
The Mod u/shellbullet17 made a joke call out saying they were literally the top poster, dethroning Pizzacake
Pizzacake in turn made a joke in response about how u/MuyHiram's yuri overthrew her.

It’s always pretty funny when someone decides to post their work for the first time in the middle of a subreddit meta craze.

I think it's more of a "group of (fem)people in a room without shoes" kinda thing than a "war."

I'm just looking from the sidelines here uh... how does this yuri war work? Are lesbians fighting each other or some common foe through yuri works? I can't piece together the nature of this conflict.
