You don't ever want to see this artist's comics posted here, regardless of what those comics are. Clutch your pearls all you like - that's awful. That's terrible behavior, and you blame it on other people. Splitting hairs about how and why exactly you never want to see her work again simply means nothing.

It is inseparable from the very drama you are whining about in the first place. It is that drama.

You are actively participating in this abuse.

Abuse is an absurd suggestion, especially considering the overt special treatment this creator receives on the other site. Just a bananas suggestion. Nobody is entitled to my viewership, and I am welcome to express my viewing preferences, even attempt to exert them within the realms of reason. Saying "I don't like this content and I do not want to see more of it" is not abuse to anyone, in any stretch of the imagination.

Your downvote doesn't change how you treat this artist, independent of how you feel about her work.

"Drama shitstorm" sounds pretty abusive, my guy. People are so toxic about this artist that you never want to see her work again. Have you even expressed an opinion of this content? Unless I'm mistaken, you've insisted you don't even care what the comic is, because you're automatically opposed to the "context." You are effectively blaming the artist for the whiners who follow her around complaining about her.

How is what you're doing not participating in that whining? What's the fucking difference?

But oh, my apologies, why should anyone else be "entitled" to post anything you don't like? What a reasonable framing, not absurd in the slightest. All you've done is ask that nobody ever post anything from this person ever again. That's totally distinct from prohibition in ways that matter.
