It’s also being dismissive of real problems people face.
No, it’s not doing that all! Having your name spelled wrong on a Starbucks cup IS NOT a real problem! You’re fabricating outrage at something that does not exist in the comic. The artist is making fun of the petty nonsense that people complain about. So, it’s not dismissive of real problems because it doesn’t list a single real problem in the comic.

Which is a pretty goddamn petty thing to complain about. How dare people express their opinions and dissatisfaction with anything that isn’t the end of the fucking world, right?
Yes, there are people who blow such things way out of proportion, but this comic does nothing to distinguish between reasonable responses to these issues and unreasonable ones, it just lumps them all together and tells everyone to shut the fuck up in the most condescending way possible.
