Weeb Wars / AnimeGate / #KickVic / #IStandWithVic / #vickicksback - General Discussion Thread

I've read through the OP (damn its long, I have not written something like this since my history final). Everything seems to be in order at this point and I am really happy with the story the post contains. A ton of really great feedback was given. Thank you so much @damian and @Jaimas. You really, really helped.

Always glad to help. If you need anything further, just lemme know.
 
and its not just getting the man fired, it's making sure this man can't ever have a way to pay rent for the rest of his days. It's shaming people off of Social Media. It's everything but killing them in the literal sense.

Guys, lets just call this what it is: a modern day lynching. Except, instead of killing a man's body, they attack his family, his livelihood, his ability to live and walk in polite society. They destroy him utterly, doing everything short of killing him, though if one their victims died from, say, suicide, they probably wouldn't even shed a tear. This whole mentality of "guilty till proven innocent" is really "guilty, and your pleas of innocence don't matter because you will always be guilty". Its no different than the mentality of people who lynched black men in the Jim Crow South. Once they've decided you are guilty, you deserve to be destroyed, and once they realize they can get away with it, they gain a taste for it. Now, this shit won't stop until somebody finally makes it stop. Until punishments and consequences are meted out to those who engage in these witch hunts, it will keep happening. That is why the Vic situation is so important, because somebody finally decided to fight back.

Did we cover that due to the way that Texas' laws work (which Funimation is HQ'd in), it may be on the hook for the actions of Marchi, Rials, and company? Nick brought it up so it's probably worth discussing.
I think it’s in the video on the op, should add a note/quote about it.

Done. Put it towards the end of the lawsuit portion before the push back against Rekieta.

I hear Texas has a nice cause of action for tortious interference with all the fixins.
 
Just noticed you (@mindlessobserver) forgot to link to Vic's GFM in that section of the OP:

Should be done now. I thumbnailed most of them to make things less busy on the page. Dunno if its improvement though. Just waiting for web archive to stop being DDoSed or whatever it is that is going on.

*EDIT*
All twitters have archive links. The Facebook stuff from Harte is tougher as she nuked her Facebook. All pictures should now be on the server, and thumb nailed apart from the pictures of the principles which I left full screen. Doing some minor grammar edits, but beyond that anything else need doing?
Okay the major issue is I'm not seeing any archive links for social media when you're introducing the characters involved. ARCHIVE EVERYTHING. NO SHIT IS TOO MINOR. My nitpicks are you say in the opening that Vic didn't sign this chick's yaoi because he's Christian, but I went and read his statements about it, and he said it was because he doesn't sign any non-canon fan material. You also misspell Ethan van Sciver's name through the OP.

Fixed the nitpicks. Got about halfway through the social media archives before archive.fo shit the bed again.
