EVO will be fine, because the Cannons are respected names in this industry and they are taking all the right steps. By next year EVO will probably be better than it was when this maniac was allowed to be the figurehead and choose games.
last i heard he was just suspended.
Time will tell i guess. Im gonna be suprissed if that's the case thou. I mean, here (in EU) company after that kind of scandal would be done for, no way in heel it would continue under the same name but maybe it's different in USA. Either way, NRS community will be just fine.
Be prepared for a lot of that. People clapping for every twitlonger, but a lot of these people see what's happening and want a piece of the pie now.
Just to be clear, this is Chap’s tweet, not Mr. Wizard’s
This is what astounds me also.
That's a damn good question, V.
I wish it actually happened that way, and it's a fucking shame.
Yeah this is the danger of it. Many of these stories have been consensual yet people are telling it like if its some sort of abuse and they are trying to make monsters out of some folks. I single tweet nowadays can destroy a persons reputation.
But in cases like this, what's to stop that person from defending themselves if they haven't done anything seriously wrong? Trust and believe that if someone came out against me like this, I would go to the ends of the Earth to make damn sure the record was set straight to anyone listening or reading. I fully agree that you're always going to have situations where people try to bury people over things that do not at all warrant a burial, but there's nothing stopping someone who's wrongfully accused of something awful from making their case in as big and elaborate a way as possible. That's what really irks me about the anti-cancel argument: there's no reason not to fight back and defend yourself if you have nothing to hide, so it baffles me that so many people take issue with it when so many people who get thrown under the bus have those wheels coming.
I thought this too, but then I saw reddit threads showing people discussing how weird Mr. Wizard was. In other words evo people had to be aware of that too, once that sinks in and people realize that I think they could be done.
Well in the case of infinity vs DMS he came in and tweeted responses to Infinity yet a lot of people aren't hearing anything about it and in their minds he is some sort of abuser/rapist. That's the issue here people are nowadays picking sides without hearing the full story or seeing the evidence. Look at Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard. She claimed he had abused her and he lost his Jacksparrow role and almost loses the Grindenwald role because cancel culture came after him. He later released the audios that proved that the abuser was actually Amber heard and she had manipulated everybody into thinking she was a victim.
Also some of these don't need any defending. They actually didn't do anything wrong. Hitting on someone is not wrong. Rape and forcing yourself on someone is wrong. None of these cases are saying they were forced into anything. Everything was consensual. But they are sharing if as of if it is a story of abuse and they are victims and people are taking it that way and condemning other people.
