Re: The Marvel and Disney Buying the Critics Conspiracy Theory
Okay, so applying that to this situation what are you saying? Who is faking what, for what gain?
I'm going to hope you're not suggesting the harassment against Tran or Boyega etc was fake, so I can only assume you mean the article writers.
What are they faking? Outrage? Possibly, I won't dispute they're clickbait articles with titles like that. That doesn't mean what they say isn't true or valid, it just means they were written for cynical reasons (ie to get clicks), or to meet some article quota or whatever.

Of course the harassment against Tran was fake. Or don't you recall that the story was leaked on the monday AFTER Solo flopped for the second straight weekend at the box office? Or that the initial articles launched with stories of Daisy Ridley being harassed off social media as well, which were mostly retracted when people posted images of her saying she left SM out of boredom.MixedDrops wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2019 10:21 am Okay, so applying that to this situation what are you saying?

Her instagram account was deleted without a single image or screenshot being posted either, there isn't a single shred of evidence supporting the harassment claims. The shill media tried to spin a blog post of hers talking about life as a asian-american into a harassment piece, which is pretty bloody psychotic and only upheld by the most desperate of whackadoodles who need to attack fandoms for funsies.
Also I should point out that blatant propaganda that lies too and conditions societies and the people who psychotically eat it up is how we ended up with a little affair called the Jewish Holocust and WWWII. In every society there's always going to be the mentally ill. They should be nursed and treated, not pandered too and manipulated for political gain.

Right. You could always read one of the numerous interviews with Tran after the fact where she talks about why she doesn't want to use social media anymore. But I guess you can instead say that a bunch of clickbait articles about "harassment bad" is going to give us another holocaust or something.

Re: The Marvel and Disney Buying the Critics Conspiracy Theory
Ah, the good ol' "the harassment was actually faked" argument. Think we should end the conversation right here, because when you believe that there's basically nothing whatsoever that can convince you, everything is just part of the conspiracy (or it's not "actually" a conspiracy, just that everyone happens to act in a way that suggests a conspiracy).
