"Hi 'Steve' I'm not happy with the 2 hour wait for my emergancy boiler fix. I've paid $25 dollars a year for this service and as a respected customer I'm not interested in your priority system nor that it's warm out, I'd like to be prioritzed in your que and wish to be kept personally updated on the ETA on the half hour basis or else I'll be taking my business elsewhere at renewal."

Jokes aside the previous editor was fucking terrible and helped antagonize comicsgate so it will be quite the achievement if she manages to be even shitter.
A nice little section from their statements on this.

“We do not support divisiveness in the fan community, or in our culture at large. We do not support those that try to bring down others. We support diversity in all aspects of pop culture. We support everyone fighting the good fight against bigotry and only wish we could play a part in making not only the internet but the world a safer place for all individuals.”

.......despite implicitly going out of their way to escalate the situation by calling everyone involved bastards.
 
I thought this guy sounded familiar. His non-binary Han Solo stand-in was top-tier cringe. I’m curious what sent them over the edge because firing him mid-release seems a bit drastic for stuff they already knew.

Holy crap. That moron was pulling a Marvel, except he decided to go all in and "Marvelize" pretty much EVERY character in his books. Make this character a gender fluid drag queen, another a multi-ethnic Mary Sue, etc.

The best part about Wending-bat's diverse cast was that, according to reviews, most people didn't even notice most of it because they were too busy trying to dissect his atrocious writing style just to figure out WTF was going on.
 

Fucking jesus yes with that Joss Whedon shit. Pl or whatever but I'm 21 so I was kind of past the point of Joss Whedon's prime when I was on the internet, can an oldfag please tell me if sensible people like farmers always hated his retarded shows and terrible dialogue and were clowning him on Something Awful or whatever, or if actually was as popular in nerd circles as his reputation suggests for a while. (Obviously tropers love him but they're their own class of autist.)

Blasting "You should go out of your way to assault and behave like uncivil animals around Republican and non-Democrat civilians because Kavanaugh" to the tune of 30K+ retweets is a bad look. Just because the crazies on Twitter have your back doesn't mean the execs do, especially with a global "mainstream" property like Star Wars. If this guy were more than a dumbass writer and actually worked on the movies in some way all hell would break loose.

So he's one of the NPCs who is programmed to snap instantly into gapemouthed maximum soy face the instant a camera is pointed at him. I wonder how they miniaturize the electronics for that. Maybe they don't have to miniaturize it much since there isn't much in the way of brains competing for the space inside his skull.

Almost every image of him online is either him doing the soyface or looking very angry. This guy is the epitome of the NPC meme, only knowing 2 emotions: Rage and SoyJoy while devoid of any originality and uniqueness.

Whedon was cool in geeky high school circles. His dialogue at the time was unique and the show was about inexplicably hot geeky kids. It’s just a matter of right time and place.
 
I tried to look up Wendig's firing on Bing or Google and all the results from news sites are all defending him as a martyr and demonizing "toxic" fans who deserve to be punched for getting him fired, hating teh LGBTBBQ and being nazis.

They're all as bad as fucking Wendig and mark my words none of these faggots probably even read his books or comics. Only defending him because he's on the "right side of history". Reddit and Facebook comments are also sperging in his favor and defending the right to demonize and attack your enemies so long as they disagree with the right side of history.

Yes, punch more "nazis" aka anyone who disagrees with you or is right of center-field or right of Marx even and completely disregard that Chuck was a shitty author who was a jerk to everyone around him. Honestly, the NPC meme has never been more accurate.

The only news site that even tries to be neutral or not in his favor in this is Breitbart.

Also I'm happily surprised to see that NeoGAF is actually against him. Did the ResetERA exodus change the place for the better?

Yeah it actually seems to. There was a thread on there recently where everyone was discussing shit like mostly rational adults. Reeeeeeeetard era just bans shit non stop.
 
Roseanne says stupid shit on Twitter, gets fired by ABC for it; SJWs cheer and say, "That's how free speech works"

Chucky says stupid shit on Twitter, gets fired by Marvel for it; SJWs cry several rivers and say, "Free speech is being killed!"

These stupid cunts seem to think World War II was about Hitler making mean tweets that triggered people.

The reason violence was okay was because it was an actual fucking war where Germany invaded most of Europe and killed millions.

I think it's also worth mentioning that it was a different time. It's not like today where there's lots of quality YouTubers, the cinema is wall to wall super heroes, and netflix has so many films and TV shows on demand that there's not enough time in the day to watch it all. Back then "geek stuff" was niche, not mainstream.

To put it another way, Friends was the Big Bang Theory of it's day. Instead of talking about which character died in Game of Thrones, people would talk about which boring soap opera character died that week.

As in...

...they're too basic and boring?

I also how he wants Marvel to accept that creators can express themselves politically (or "impolitically"), yet more than likely is none too fond of Zach and EVS.

I remember reading something a year ago about how Wendig tried to form a hate mob against William Shatner for "wrongthink" and then Chucky got all spergy after Mr. Shatner bashed his awful writing and opinions in return.

Edit: Found the tweets.

I'm sure this modern-day classic will have a shelf life longer than the three weeks it took to make it.
