Ok, i didn't want to enter the debate regarding comicsgate
First of all, i will concede that the anti-flynn squad weren't as one sided in terms of condemning Ken Pender's behaviour whilst being outraged with Ian about comicsate.
Now, i am going to tread lightly with this subject.
I know that some of the republicans have been at the pointy end of the stick after Trumps election, and i feel sorry for the republicans who wished there was an alternative for candidate. I am not into judging people by their affiliation. If i had a coffee shop and there were these otherwise normal people that i know to be republicans i would still serve them - if they are respectable and respect other people than act respectably to them.
Anyway, back to the issue, i don't blame you comicgaters for being outraged at Ian Flynn and i am not going to try to change that. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that Comicsgate is good or bad, its fair to say that it has a bad outside reputation. Comicsgate has to be careful that it is not hijacked by members those that wish to steer it into extremism, like Vox Day. It was a good call to get rid of him, but i really do believe that it needs to be more regulated, like it could probably have a panel by some of your best peers. If anything, if i could get away with saying something negative about comicsgate is that it is lazy in not trying to improve upon its image. Like i have seen some of what the people in there have said and to tell you the truth some of it can go a little too far. I'm the type of person that likes South park and even if the show does something cringe-worthy or tastlesss i still would watch it. Make no mistake, I would never condone the action of that antigater emailing his anus to someone he doesn't like even when the founder of comicsgate displayed a drawing about suicide
Ironically, while i wouldn't tar every member with the same brush, this is exactly the same logic that i feel that the reaction to ian Flynn has been more overblown. Some have always seem to hate Ian even before the IDW comics and that the reason why some joined comics gate is because they know that they can't get rid of Ian Flynn by themselves so they try to push people into conflict with Ian. In case you haven't noticed TUG, one of the people you interviewed has always been hurling abuse to Ian via twitter
and has been making lots of journals about various theories. Did you also know TUG that Ken Penders recently assumed one of your interviewees was attacked by Ken Penders because Ken thought that he voted for Trump and even calling him racist. But the interviewee said that it was okay.
I am not angry or furious at comicsgate at all and as i said before, don't blame them for retaliating, if anything i am blaming the people i consider outside of comics who were trying to infuriating the whole situation. Continuing with the abuse of Ian Flynn will not give you a good image at all and that it will just justify the anti-comic gaters beleifs, just because a group of people within your group are calling for blood just because a group of characters aren't in it. (like having them in there are nice, but the way people have been acting sometimes i wonder whether i shouldn't bother about it)- out of all of the people wishing sally to appear, i still have respect for DTH because he does not act like a bully like Teamrandom and triforcekid.
I know how much you like the characters, but that does not justify being rude and saying you want him banned from sonic comics or regarded as the worst human being, there have been worse things people can do lol
#comicsgateVSanticomicsgateIf i have offended anyone, i apologize in advance. i just feel that the whole situation has been overblown and possibly manipulated.
Update: wow, there are people certainly losing their cool over not having the freedom fighters. Seriously, as if having four characters from one television show would make a difference to becoming a hit and miss, with that argument does that mean that Sonic X and underground failed because they don't have the freedom fighters. What on earth is wrong with them? and WOW, what's Zealous' problem?
P.S. If you REALLY want the Freedom Fighters back, why don't you stop harassing just one man and ask Sega for a third season for SATAM or a reboot of the series.
P.S.S. (sorry i didn't properly read my own sentence and i shouldn't have put that link in) but wow, trying to guilt trip people? stop acting so low.
