9, our middle school AMVs, and more . This was not good enough for them as the kept beating the dead horse most likely trying to make him lose more. someone is flagged and migth be confirmed as a predator, would you still want him to be one of your big names? The goal of IStandWithVic is ultimately to prove Vic's innocence and get him properly back into the industry. Then these VAs were harassing and lashing out at fans and skeptics which got people really involved and raised that GoFundMe like crazy. Even after Ty Beard appeared on Nick Rekieta's stream. He just says it like he sees it and gives thoughts. Your link has been automatically embedded. He knew the consequences of that stuff as well and danced on that line quite often. Within context and in terms of the showeeeeeeeeeeeeh. Harrassing VA's and companies on twitter, their sites and probably upcoming cons (big riot at the next RTX, I'm calling it now) will not help anyone or anything. Also, look up "vic mignogna kissed me" on YouTube. It a level of intellectual dishonesty I just can't resonate with in a civildiscussion. But to end things on a more humorous note, just imagine a judge spending so many trials reading thousands of tweets and what is going through his mind. Obviously those men are not the whole of the USA democratic party or the people who support them, but the comment's you can see followers creating a strawman out of that interaction. Of course he called during their off hours. This court case prevents anyone else from being in that position because trust me, someone would have been. But I still doubt it. https://www.resetera.com/threads/acnimation-cut-ties.94896/page-32#post-17794781. These could be false. It's a rabbit hole you're better off not going in, and one far too many especially younger menare increasingly falling into. I have no influence in this conversation, I hold no power over Vic's fate. While their impact probably would be the least effected, it could be detrimental to them as you said. And in other news, Youtube may have been supporting a Pedo. I'm pretty sure if there was proof of these allegations, someone would have found it by now. There was some pedophile allegation or something with the con owner. I'm going to try and make this as brief as possible. I can't say I really blame them but this is just getting ridiculous at this point. Rooster Teeth, Warner Bros. Discovery's fandom, sci-fi and gaming entertainment division, came under fire from a former employee who said she was mistreated during her time at the company . Mignogna has been a well-known. I am curious how this case will unfold so I'll probably be posting updates on who is going to be involved and the results of the case. Evidence is not facts. By the way, here's a great deconstruction of the letter: I've been hearing stories about him for YEARS. "RoosterTeeth Sends Cease and Desist and Threatens Lawsuit, Against SFW / NSFW RWBY MMD YouTuber Read the news; https://t.co/8SWc1TNVQH" If factual evidence is indeed brought into the court of law that Vic is sexually harassing someone in the terms of the court, then I will accept that with no question. He believes it's because he's very outspoken by his religion and talks about it so much. Not only that but it can't be covered in depth - not because lack of evidence because it's anime, and like gaming,very little journalism or investigationactually goes into it. Ironically one of the most reliable sources to get infoeven if it gets a bit disturbing. He is not a sexual predator and I do think he's gotten into trouble before and maybe even had to talk to people about it. @AikofoxIs a man cheating on his girlfriend with a girl who has a boyfriend considered a good person? Unhappy, but fine. Dude one of his little followers claimed that Roosterteeth would fall for them firing Vic.. Im not. We know Monica Rial wanted to be around him up until this whole KickVic thing or the Broly movie. Chris Sabat has a recording studio Funimation uses. He starred in, exec produced, and edited officially but he put his hand in pretty much every department. This just made fans want to see this evidence even more and thus began a war. The ANN article was posted one day before Funimation hired Vic. But if you're going to believe some random women on the internet because of numbers, just look at the mirror and ask yourself what the hell you're doing. If I had to describe him with one sentence, it would be this: he loves his fans. Josh Martin - The voice of Buu and an ass to quite a number of people on Twitter. These were day 1 news covering people who were taking a short break when this all broke out. Btw for those who like numbers, roughly 62% of sexual assault allegations were either false, inconclusive, or dismissed. Vic Mignogna WAS a successful voice actor that was fired from RWBY due to being a real awful person and hurting a lot of people. He apologized for the things he known he did which were wrong twice and maybe 3 times. Your career can be wrecked even if someone flat out lies about an allegation and HR. Jessie Pridemore - A cosplayer who really needs to learn to shut up as she's in a lawsuit against Todd Haberkorn for having drunken sex with him but accusing it of the r of an ape. Same issue and same situation except this has now blown up. That tweet blew up like crazy. Their ceo I think was found for pedophilia and there was some Nazi ad on their site. This is where the allegations come from. They have been covering all of this information even at the rapid pace it's been coming out but even they can't always keep up with all this news. The more this goes on, the more I believe Vic didn't even do a damn thing wrong. P. 45 Subpoena, filed October 26, 2021 (Dkt. It's nothing more than trying to right a wrong, but more importantly taking action against it. I was sixteen at the time, but looked younger than that due to my height and weight. I've seen the leaked private messages though. That's basically tame 4chan but one of their first posts cover it nicely. His grievances, including defamation and tortious interference, were later dismissed by a Texas judge. -"We do not condone harassment" - Not exactly a meme but this was a tweet by Funimation and by VAs which users pointed out how hypocritical they are. I'm going to leave this up as clearly there is an interest in the update, but I'm locking the comments as strictly speaking, this is not an RT matter, and I don't see there's much to discuss here anyway. I know it brings some good, but I guarantee it brings more bad. Around the same time, Marchi and Rial, prominent voice actors, came forward separately about disturbing experiences with Mignogna. This picture was taken down and removed due to this. Bipolar. Do I believe that? Ty and Rekieta warned them numerous times. The great irony in Vic being his own worst enemy. Shane did say "We did stuff that was not okay then, and certainly not okay now" which is to be taken with a grain of salt but it does make you wonder about the "we." Does that really matter? That is their first battle. That should've been the end of the story that "they fired the guy for being an ass." The guy said "Whatever" to that basically and who knows what else they said as by the end of it, the guy is considering never doing Kameha Con ever again. Theres also this delusion that a round 2 was going to happen with RT, and Shannon after Vic won the lawsuit. Additional Notes: He's called a Boomer for struggling with technology. This made people absolutely livid and many went into hiding or wanted to make a truce not to get sued. "The opposite side" and whatever they have done still doesn't negate the initial problem. There's some truth into this, but right now, all it looks like is a hate mob who really just want to see Vic burn. We cannot say these allegations are false. The Quartering - A big Youtuber who covers many controversial topics on his channel. I have a feeling Shane (the guy with the abused chair) may have played a part in this as well. They really could not make him bow down to them or push them around since he was a big named VA and really high up. He's often regarded as the head of the #IStandWithVic for having the best connections and most useful information. Because I am a bigger more well known user my word is more credible and has more worth and that there are only two outcomes for this statement, mind is true. The term comes from ComicsGate which comes from GamerGate which comes from Water Gate. Vic is the one that admitted that. It's ugly. Seriously, someone tell me how Vic will be proven guilty when the most reliable allegations were from liars. Following the explosion of sexual harrasment allegations in early 2019, Rooster Teeth terminated their relationship with Vic Mignogna (Qrow in RWBY), though (unlike Funimation) they avoided being caught up in the resulting legal action. I highly doubt that as I feel like there would be some uncertainty. That's not even the most blatant shit. And I'll say it again, even if only 1 of the alligations actually happened Vic is in boiling hot water. Yeah, I heard about the homophobia and antisemitism. He was not responsible for the accident and even the police officer at the scene acknowledged that. He's one of the first round people to be suedI think. Marzgurl - Originally part of channel awesome and a close friend of Jewwario who was found out to be sexual assaulting people after he committed suicide. Additional Notes: They are on a mission to put a stop to Social Jackwagons. They totally don't have anything against Vic or his huge success and overall fanbase that loves him. Yeah, they could say no, but these are kids. And people can totally remember some random encounter they were comfortable 6 years ago with which now somehow makes them uncomfortable. Shannon Mccormick - The VA for Ozpin from RWBY. Personally, I think the fact that a lot of the people in the investigation hate the guy and wanted him gone on top of PR was the reason. I love how the narrative of him has changed from a Blackface lawyer to leaking information on his case to only pretending to be a lawyer. To learn more or opt-out, read our Cookie Policy. So I decided to make it myself to see how it tasted. Those sexual harassment allegations are going to be thrown out the window. YellowFlash2 - I believe he covered ComicsGate, but a Youtuber who covers Anime news and formerly recognized as the leader of the IStandWithVic movement coming up with the term AnimeGate to address the situation at hand. The moral of the story is what Vic said "Be kind to one another" because if people remained professional and didn't stretch it to the extent it was, Vic might not have even had a case to begin with as companies can fire people for any reason. 236. You've been doing this for like 20 years and this one guy does one role of just screaming and becomes one of the biggest and most iconic people in your fanbase. Definitely pre-MeToo movement. Can't say I'm surprised at the allegations ever since I learned about his evangelicalism. Supergirl - A user on Twitter who was a big fan of Vic's and was vocal about believing in innocent until proven guilty, but tried to help out both sides from being harassed or even doxed. someone can point me to covering the allegations? Funimation clearly doesn't pay attention to their Tweets either or they would have shut those VAs up especially Rial. Those last three words are very important. 1). This bad publicity is leverage to help the leaders behind this all drive someone they don't like out of the industry. I think it's because of how his fan club acted he made the assumption all girls that age range wanted that. He does send proceeds from both sides to the Vic GoFundMe. I cannot speak on the matter of RT as I don't know whether or not they will be involved. That's why when they looked at over everything Kameha Con changed their mind knowing they made a mistake and invited him back. She then made her away into Kameha Con with a guest pass (given to her by an unknown party) trying to make some type of scene around Vic but was caught and thrown out. I don't say something like about people pretty much ever.

If no action is taken, this would not end just here. So if the author being a woman is based entirely on the name, even that much doesn't make sense? Is it because she never liked Vic and that third experience with him really left a bad taste in her mouth? It's essentially Incel propaganda. Really not a smart move on Vic's part if this whole io9 thing is true. Yeah, many of these stories about him are not new. However, in 2019 a series of accusations of sexual harassment made by voice actresses in the anime industry and convention attendees against Mignogna came to a breaking point, causing Funimation, Sony Pictures, and Rooster Teeth to all break their relationships with him. This more likely is them targeting Monica Rial over Ron. This also happened years ago probably when his ego was the highest so perhaps he had a warped mindset. ------------------------------------------------------------------. While this very small and minor group of people tried covering this, all these things were going on and people were taking notice. I don't think there's a single police report on his actions and since they were so long ago you'd have a hard time really proving it. (If you don't know what that is, you're better off not asking). How fitting it'd be Ozpin to screw this up. He often brings on many #IStandWithVic members to discuss things both in and out of the Vic Lawsuit. Mignogna taken off RWBY as allegations mount. Start a new thread to share your experiences with like-minded people. Last year, he and Anime Matsuri, a convention held in Houston, partnered to open a dubbing studio. Based on what you see the only logical thing to think is that "This is an apple" as there's nothing to disprove that it's not. It was not a secret that Vic was a sex pest, and it wasn't a secret that he targeted girls, often underage ones, at conventions. Now the next important thing was the annoucement Todd Haberkorn is in a lawsuit against Jessie Pridemore accusing him of rape. I can't honestly tell with this girl to have any idea. This shows them no, it does not. The only problem with this is that his army of fanatics have decided to attack anyone who attempts to see him as anything other than their infallible messiah. Nobody actually knows the identity of Nick's sources but I probably could name, Short Round - Known as the arms dealer on Kiwi Farms selling patches to both sides of the conflict. That Umbrella Guy (TUG) - Hey thereit's a notable Youtuber who covered ComicsGate and is known for his soothing Louisiana Voice. There's no way this person I barely know could ever do something like this!". The more important news is that Ron Toyenow has a lawyer apparently. I do not believe Shane did these acts nor should we assume so. Senpai'sHome - Another Youtuber who covers this Vic situation who is probably most famous for getting blocked or banned often first. Your view of Vic was more than likely skewed. holy shit this still was going on? Note: This is going to be a LOOOOONG updated post to get everything critical t, I'll at least give you some relief that many of the allegations used tactics in which in a public mass work in favor of people, but are complete garbage and useless in court.
