I'm excited to see the results of this as the community needs closure from this splitting political upheaval. There will be disagreements from many, but I'm hoping that those who stay in their glass rooms come to realize that it is unhealthy to do so.
We should always seek out conversation and understanding, especially from those we don't agree with. It creates a more rounded world view which we can use to seek a brighter future.
You don't fight bigotry with bigotry. You fight it with understanding, empathy, and compassion. I've seen the whole process on Twitter and followed articles, interviews as well as people's personal stories on social media, and all I can say is unless he actually makes an effort of understanding the accusations and make amends for them (way too many people within the VA industry as well as fans and con workers have made it clear he is problematic in more ways than one).
And seeing how Funimation made their own inside investigation and took the decision to kick him was just the nail in the coffin. When I saw this on Twitter. There were things that did not add up.If he was behaving strangely or did something horrible then why didn’t anyone reported to authorities or something about it. The thing is being taken too far.You may have ppl who mention it but they didn’t take action, false claims and such is already bad enough and ppl don’t realize that it’s an abuse. They are only doing it for attention and whatever else they want and to me it is very upsetting.And ppl who read it would quick up to conclusions and say he is a horrible person when they only read what the ppl who knows about his behaviors and what not.Our society has been and always will be mess up for sure.
