Plausible deniability though.

Now I can say, "Why would I pay a fat orange Aussie retard thru the purchase of ten copies of his comic? And why would he, several months later, ineffectually copyright strike you only TWICE, when a third time would bring your channel down?"

And people might agree that it doesn't make sense.

So maybe that's how I operate. I worry about every anonymous clown on the internet that has a hateboner for me, and I attack them in ways that don't make sense, because that's the best way to get away with having accomplished absolutely nothing.

Stay paranoid.

so for the record, why did you back Liam 10 or 17 times?

To get his backer number to a certain point, or to get his total earnings to a certain point.

One of the two, but I can't remember which it was. He was live at the time, and it was fun to watch his excitement, as though lots of people were backing him, when it was just me.

I regularly drop $500-1000 on some of my favorite CGers campaigns. Give back a little.

Also somewhere down the road if you ask them to do the occasional small favour it would be rude if they said no

Is it possible that I do this because it's kind, and that it's a good optic for someone who makes 7 figures on his crowdfunders to be generous to smaller campaigns?

Of course not. I want to get into internet wars with literal nobodies.

If I asked Liam or anyone to ever attack other retards, it's just a matter of time before all of that correspondence gets leaked. Liam especially is the type of guy who'd flip on me to get attention.

Wait patiently for that.

You're not that smart. :)
 
I don't really see the point in continuing on and on to talk about SWC. I don't remember where in the CG movement that people agreed that to be in CG, you'd have to be a free speech absolutist like they are. Only retards open up their "review" of a comic throwing out accusations after accusations and rambling on and on into the void. Whatever they said in 3 parts, other people can sum it up nice and easy in one video. The rest of their videos is just verbal a-logging about CG in general.

At some point hate, negativity and controversy became the fast-track to Youtube success. They're just another one trolling for views.

Sorry if I'm having problems associating the word 'kind' with your actions Ethan, I'm not a writer so don't have that sort of imagination. No I don't think you'd ask someone like Liam directly to do something, you're many things but you're not stupid. I think you'd surround yourself with varying ranks of lapdogs then send the attack command down the chain so you stay as far away from the fallout as possible. You may not be even conscious of doing it but I suspect that's what is going on, but you know I'm just speculating

It's not about SWC it's about Liam Gray (as CG as they come) using SJW tactics to shut down critics after spending years bitching about SJW tactics

There's a big difference between actual critics and what SWC does.

It's not hard to fuck with Liam. I did it unintentionally just speculating on the lack of data for his campaign to even merit a video game at one point, and Liam read that verbatim on a privated/deleted video. The lack of data aspect was later iterated by Jon Malin recently when he yelled at Liam.

Accomplished without making shit up. Even if I may have been wrong about certain things about my analysis, at least I don't double down on trying to tard wrangle Liam till his tardmilk is dry.

My estimation of Scott Snyder's politics is that he isn't a political person at all, but votes Democrat and reacts to the temperature of the water in the fishbowl he's swimming in. I don't think he's driven much at all by BLM lunacy, but he'd definitely put #BlackLivesMatter in his twitter handle if everyone else was doing it.

He's center left. Which is what Sean Gordon Murphy is. It's probably what most people with long careers in comics are.

They're all perfect targets for manipulation.

People know, whether it's sure knowledge or instinctual, that Camilla has power within the Whisper Network, and nobody wants to fuck with that.

The interesting thing is that before, the fact that she was paving the way for Woke comics made a good cover for her ambition. She was helping Marginalized People get comics made!

Now she's just out to use her connections to profit from the non-Woke comics of high end creators who might fear her. That's fairly corrupt if true.

Snyder is a Vertigo creature whose tight with loony left Stephen King...

His first year on the Bat books he introduced danger hair Harper Row in a cringe annual story and peppered his run with political themes and SJWisms.

He's a liberal. Full stop. It's not substance he disagrees with people like Zhang but style. That's why he let the wolves into DC, or helped at any rate over in the Bat office.

Maybe I'm unconsciously commanding retards to attack other retards on my behalf.

It's definitely possible.

Consciously though, I don't give a shit.

Everything I do while I'm conscious is aimed at business and making money.

Attacking someone like Comic Book Hut would be petty. Poor fellow is just trying to grow his channel. I did the same thing with Rian Johnson that he's doing with me. Videos with my name in the title get 1000 views, without exception. Those anti-CG guys are welcome to a-log me for clout.

That's another example of my kindness.

I would've loved to been backed 17 times 😔

The Whisper Network needs Comicsgate to exist to be a threat over these guys. They've cast CG as the villains to point at and say "fuck with us and we'll exile you to Siberia with the rest of them"
 
Just saw Zack's BRZRKR video, in which he said he was going to back the book right after the video was done.


On Kickstarter.

All your boycotts are BS.

My theory is you were trying to bankrupt Liam with the international shipping back when the AUS exchange rate was in the toilet.

Indeed. Fucking hell, GamerGate has been dead for four years and every time the Video Game media needs something to screech about they parade around its rotted corpse, six years on.

Ditto Sad Puppies and the spergs at places like File 770.

I'm sure the media associated with table top gaming and heavy metal are disappointed they've not got a totem to display to their faithful.

I don't recall Zack telling people to boycott Kickstarter. Would be weird since he's openly backed other Kickstarter projects, unless this was a recent thing.
