Blame Chuck Hubert for taking that particular swing, and mostly miss because no VA had an earthly clue what the gently caress he was talking about (in which Hubert in the same breath kinda substantiated Vic as a sex pest too despite how he was trying to come to Vic’s defense, so lol)

Vic isn’t unique in the entertainment industry for this kind of thing, and the fan reaction is also fairly typical. The unique thing about this case and the main point of this thread is that Vics response was to sue his accusers and Funimation. He took part in a SLAPP lawsuit so ludicrous it got a significant proportion of legal Twitter laughing at him.

Vic isn’t special, he’s not some monster that if we get rid of him the anime industry becomes righteous. He’s just the guy who allowed the spotlight to be shone on him because he thought he was above it, and who people have jumped on as being on their side in a culture war.

We do probably need a spin-off thread to discuss problems with the industry in general, because in the recent course of this thread we’ve covered some scummy conventions and just now begun talking about other voice actors with stuff flying over them. A generalised industry thread would be a better and clearer place for people who want to have those conversations and we can have this thread just be about the funny thing: vic and his lawsuit.

"Let's be positive! Let's start a fire!"
I guess, but it seems like a lateral move because this stuff only came up because it is Vic adjacent (and the direct consequences of his dumbass suit), plus VA specific issues usually just get brought up in the threads for the anime they were involved in.

Plus, this case likely died under a mountain of paperwork on some judge clerk’s desk and we won’t be getting an update there for awhile (highly likely the judgment will be affirmed and Vic is out $300k while Ty Beard pretends this phase of his legal career never happened)

But in typical Vic stan fashion, instead of hitting people like Haberkorn or DC Douglas where their issues were caught on 4K or they admitted to it, they instead go hook line and sinker for the “Christopher Sabat has actually been running a Casting Couch for decades and that’s the only reason a lot of these (women} VAs have their jobs” variety of absolute loving fever dreams

I totally missed that DC Douglas was a creep. What happened with him?

I don't know if this even actually happened or if it's some chud fantasy that went viral, but the story I once heard that that, DC Douglas, being an extremely online and combative Twitter leftist who loves dunking on chuds, as previously mentioned, did something where he walked into a bathroom filming it on his cellphone in an effort to try and debunk insane chud copypasta about trans people.

Vic fans took it and ran with it and went "See! This guy's an even worse creep than our guy!" and he got suspended from Twitter over it, but that was it.

So more huge idiot than creep, but it was still a bad and very creepy look.

e: Oh, and I guess that too ^^^ wow

We can now legally call Vic a pedophile and sex offender without fear of reprocussion. He hosed this case up so bad he literally removed his ability to ever claim defamation on these subjects again. Holy poo poo.
