I thought better of my friends. I really hope this guys being his normal contrary self and doesn't mean it.quote:Who's really at fault if someone asks to masturbate in front of them, proceeds to do exactly what they ask, but the witness stays all the way through completion? I mean, you're an adult, get the gently caress up and move if you don't want to be party to it. One of the witness was quoted as being paralyzed by fear

21 Muns posted:IMO anyone who supports the women of the animation industry should buy tickets to Coco and burn them. That way, you're supporting all of the talented Mexican and Latino artists who worked on the film, but you're also sending Disney a clear message. They let this happen for years and they can't come out of this thinking that that was acceptable. I'm planning to go to the theater this weekend and use my movie pass to see it and probably enjoy it. I'm not sure how spending money in support of a product but then not seeing the paid for product works.

At least it was just regular assault and not sexual assault? Not that that makes it better but at least (so far) he's kept his dick in his pants

Have you guys ever noticed when Max Landis comes up y'all trip over yourselves to make helicopter jokes and go "JOHN LANDIS KILLED KIDS"  and then start talking about how Max is a shitheel? Because somehow his dad doing something before he was born is a reason to dislike Max when he already has so many other things to bring up.

I work in middle-to-high school education and it turns out that kids and adults alike are often super-duper extra lovely to girls who commit the sin of developing early or growing boobs that are “too big” for their age cohort. The dress code for girls is almost completely based around not distracting the boys in class too. It's ridiculous

Darko posted:I see punishment as corrective, and not revenge. If someone did something years ago, was already called out at the relevant time, apologized, and most importantly - did not repeat their actions, I dont see the point of a retroactive punishment. His horrible edgelord comments fall into the same category as Roseanne, horrible enough to lose work but not horrible enough to become an elected official. But seriously he already had these tweets come out, he apologized for being an edgelord, Disney decided not to punish him. It's lovely that now the exact same tweets are coming out again, he still has apologized, but this time it's "gently caress you good bye."

If they were going to punish it they should have the first time the tweets were brought to their attention. It's now years later and they decided to cut him loose which sets a pretty poo poo precedent. That would be like if my bosses decided retroactively years later that a mistake I made during my 90 day probation period was worth firing for. They knew the mistake happened, they hired me in anyway, and now it's a problem? This is literally because people let an Actual Rapist get them all riled up and are now demanding blood. You know like you are doing in this exact thread right now.

Safeword you honestly might want to step away from this thread and calm down because you're getting irl angry about things that have been explained at length. Making terrible jokes about pedophilia isn't great. It's a lovely topic to joke about but comedians do that. They make jokes about things that are lovely to joke about. Entire careers are formed off that exact thing. James Gunn wrote movies for Troma which is known for it's edgelord sense of humor. We have explained this to you at length. And you come back with "but James Gunn worked in Hollywood and was responsible to get rid of the toxicity of Hollywood with his influence" but I don't know what influence a writer for Troma actually has on the culture of Hollywood at large. And as for not demanding blood like was said above you have done exactly that. Every time you are happy he got the axe for tweets he made a decade ago, were discovered years ago, were apologized for, and ignored by Disney you are showing that you're happy that Not a Rapist got fired because an Actual Rapist riled you and a bunch of 9ther people on Twitter up.

Ghost Leviathan posted:Last I remember a lot of cons had to introduce anti-harassment rules along the lines of 'cosplay does not equal consent' because female harassers were as much a problem as male ones. ('no glomping' was also another rule they had to introduce) I'm too lazy to dig for the picture but Gencon 2013 had a round table discussion about the topic Cosplay is Not Consent. It was an hour and a half long. Nobody should need an hour and a half to get through their heads "don't be creepy" Although it's still weird to me the porn booth sponsored the thing. Mostly because it's weird that Gencon has a porn booth in the first place.
