http://boundingintocomics.com/2018/10/12/chuck-wendig-fired-from-marvel-and-star-wars/
Star Wars novelist and comic book writer Chuck Wendig announced that Marvel fired him after they just announced he would be writing the Shadow of Vader series.
Wendig tries to paint himself as a victim because he included LGBT elements in his novel Star Wars: Aftermath.
He continues trying to paint himself as a victim by stating he received a ton of harassment.
Wendig finally admits why he was fired. It was because of his “negativity and vulgarity.”
While Wendig claims he is a victim of harassment, his own behavior is well documented and it’s not just negativity and vulgarity. He’s actually called for violence against Trump supporters.
Back in June, Wendig decided to attack Star Wars fans decrying them as white supremacists and “toxic.” He also claimed they were sexist and racist.
He would then threaten to sue over a parody T-shirt.
Shortly after his initial attack against Star Wars fans, Wendig would double down. He would state that Star Wars fans come from a “poisoned, septic well-spring.” He would explain that the well spring is “toxic masculinity and abusive white privilege.”
Things would get really bizarre towards the end of June when Wendig decided to claim he doesn’t make products.
Earlier in October he decided to actually call for violence against Trump supporters. He would specifically state that Trump supporters “can eat shit. They can eat a boot covered in shit.” He would then allude to Game of Thrones stating, “Winter is coming, you callous f***necks, you prolapsed assholes, you grotesque monsters, you racists and rapists and wretched abusers, you vengeful petty horrors.”
He would then state, “Some will tell you to be civil because our rage and scorn will fuel the other side, but f*** that double standard in both ears.”
Finally, he would claim he had some bodies he needed to bury.
Wendig can claim that he’s a victim all he wants. It’s simply not true.
One thing appears to be clear. Disney might ignore the behavior of a number of Marvel Comics professionals, but Star Wars is a whole other beast. It appears Disney doesn’t want their multi-billion dollar investment to be harmed by a novelist and comic book writer.
There also appears to be a line that Disney will draw when it comes to who they employ. We’ve recently seen them fire James Gunn for his Tweets about pedophiles and child rape, and now Chuck Wendig has been fired after calling for calling Disney consumers white supremacists, racists, and rapists. Not to mention he called for violence against Trump supporters.
What do you think of Marvel Comics and Disney’s decision to fire Chuck Wendig? Do you agree with their decision?

I was expecting a little worse than that considering the shit the comics side of the business gets away with. He didn't send a picture of his asshole to some dude to sexually harass him, after all.
I guess Star Wars is a property they're more interested in. Fuck with that and you're gone.

The Star Wars comics are Marvel Comic's real money makers, they keep the quality somewhat higher than regular since the editors are from the Star Wars side instead of Marvel.

Maybe it's because he was outright with his "People who tell you to calm down deserve the bullet too, they're just like the irredeemable rapistnazimonsters who disagree with me" bit instead of being just a crazy unhinged lunatic like usual? I'm confused on the exact line he crossed too.

Good riddance, Chuck Wendig is a massive piece of shit asshole with a soy grin. Fuck him.
Edit: Also laughing at the “we’re furious” post from a cat lady blogger feminist. Yeah, your fury did a lot (nothing) for Kavanaugh.

Quick circle the wagons and push 'harassment campaign' narrative
Yeah it's the bad guy editors at Marvel they should be fired too (also admission of creators being arseholes to fans)
Fuck that white male - think about the Wahmen, POC and LGBTWTFBBQ+
Prior narrative: Marvel and creators are the bestest of friends and so supportive and great and lovely -> cue somebody getting fired for their own actions -> New narrative: Marvel are the worst people ever. SJWs always eat their own

Chuck can whine about having LGBT stuff in his Star Wars book, but BioWare and Karen Traviss beat him to the punch decades ago, and no one batted an eye then.
Good riddance to smug rubbish.

“This isn’t how you respond to a harassment campaign”
Uhhh you know how else you don’t respond to a harassment campaign? You don’t harass and egg your harassers on. You don’t treat your customers/fans (current and future) like shit.
But that’s completely lost on the virtuous crowd.
Edit: All media companies know the numbers and the social justice crew is tiny and doesn’t spend money. So no one will fucking care.

Yes, it's such a loss to let go the weirdo soyboy who wrote a fart wedding into a Star Wars book.
He said, implying that there isn't an incestuous cabal of comic prosFuck that white male - think about the Wahmen, POC and LGBTWTFBBQ+
Anyone else notice that they only believe in "separate the art from the artist" when it's someone they like?

All he said was 'you're my type' as in, expressing interest and that equals...rape? Sexual assault? What? She's clutching at straws here. Straws that lead to full fat milkshakes if her picture is anything to go by.
Edit: also good riddance Chuck. Your SW writing was fairly atroucious and pretty much tanked in comparison to original EU novels. I don't know any SW fan that is going to miss your shitty writing and your hamfisted 'xer' pronouns.

I'm still stuck on the implication that "it's only natural" that writers be extreme political spergs. Just become a politician if you're more interested in that, none of this "all art is political" shit you tell yourself to appear intellectual. They're clearly more passionate about that and thus are denying people this change they want to give them.
You shouldn't work on some big sci-fi IP if your attention is stuck on political happenings instead of crazy space adventures.
