I mean, he did write about his miscarriage in a webcomic that was just goofy pop-nerd humor up to that point, which is the entire reason it became a meme.
If people are sending the dude loss comics on the anniversary, that's a little fucked up because it's being used as a personal attack. Which is 100% not the case with the typical loss meme.
Tl;dr I don't think the guys needs people white knighting for him every time a loss meme is born.
That's fair. I just know if I made something to commemorate a significant impact in my life and it became a joke for the next decade I'd be pretty upset
