Voice Actors - Complain about American/Canadian ones, Gush about Japanese ones, I guess

Are there any VAs whose response to the election and Trumps victory has been something along the lines of "meh", or "whatever"? Pretty much apathy or being disappointed but moving on with their lives? Anything other than histrionic anger at Orange Man?

If there are, they probably know not to post about it lest they encounter the wrath of their peers/their fans. Remember, everything HAS to be doom and gloom, worst case scenario with these people.

It's their fantasy of trump "taking away basic human rights" bull why a LOT of va's and stand are plagued.

Alejandro Saab aka CyYu lashed out against someone suggesting Character.AI, permabanning them for it, and closed comments on the short.

Ai hysteria is super fucking retarded. More retarded than the marketing of shit as ai. Also how the fuck does he think mocap works if he's "anti ai"? Shit marketed as ai is just algorithm shit which mocap falls under technically. Your fucking vtuber avatar is "ai"! :story:

A while back on Japan side, voice actors speak out against unauthorized usage of AI, not necessarily against entire thing. Some are partnered with company to make AI voice as virtual assistants (Google, Alexa) and also being promised with these samples won't be used in any forms of commercial voice acting.
Yuki Kaji has released his first form of AI voice for commercial usage (Yahoo JP, pricing and guideline). For now, it can be used for singing. talking and any doujinshi - hobby related. Not applied for any monetization youtube video. His AI voice, Soyogi Soyogi, is still considered as different entity of himself. He doesn't think AI generated itself is bad, it's the unauthorized or "without-permission" part.

All of these people are just striking against AAA Burgerlands video game companies. It's not like they are actually out of business anytime soon, considering entire EN Anime voice acting industry is in the same clique anyway. Also, they don't actually push anything for not being treat as a second class citizen comparing to on screen cinema actors. They can keep forever seething being treated like that, especially if they are dealing with big brand companies.
They are also demanding companies signing protection against AI must also using their wonderful and talented localization people.

Not really related to AI thing above, my usual hating faggotry in the EN industry. I'm sure it isn't hard to find a woman or even a black woman to voice a dark skin character for their preference. But nooooo, because he is an en-by so he gets the pass. A little accident because I picked EN audio instead of JP.
Caitlin Glass is the voice director for this show. That's somewhat disappointing.

@Hammr2 The majority of the ai hysteria in the US is pure theatrics, they're behind the scenes basically pulling the same shit as japan with the "unauthorized use" thing which translates to "only the companys aready working with the incestuous industry actors can ever use them and if you use any vocal clip of them that's unauthorized/ai use and ai is bad so only companies should have it because IP theft!" shit.

Isn't Saab in his 40s and married. And now he's got.......a fucking vtuber character? Embarrassing....

You'd be surprised how many vtuber people are in or above their 40s. Difference here is this is a guy already locked in with jobs from companies and you can kind of fucking tell because I've seen a ton of vtuber people, even the vtuber people that are in "vtuber corporations" make shitposts and mess with ai shit. Someone finds shit funny and he throws a fit and bans them bragging about it because it's an "ai" chatbot site. Only people I've seen act that way were fucking wllfully ignorant motherfuckers or suits from (or directly linked to) california.
