But Greg, several people ASSURED me that you were wrong and no TCPA motion could be filed because this was CLEAR DEFAMATION. I'm not sure if they were lawyers but they had only the MOST PRESTIGIOUS ANIME AVATARS AVAILABLE
Funimation's filed their TCPA. Curious how the usual suspects will try to spin this.
Greg tweeted that it will be publicly available tomorrowI hope this is not a sealed document, I would love to read this court filing.
Lmaooo, he played Hei in Darker Than Black. This is going to be the biggest existential quandary of Youtube grifter Hero_Hei's life, and I'm so fucking here for it.Jason Liebretch will be replacing Vic as Qrow in RWBY

TCPA == Texas Citizens Participation Act, that state's version of an anti-SLAPP statute (SLAPP == Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation, basically lawfare to get people to shut up)
Funi is asking the judge to toss Vic's case and make him pay $$$
Lmao this is so beautiful!Lmaooo, he played Hei in Darker Than Black. This is going to be the biggest existential quandary of Youtube grifter Hero_Hei's life, and I'm so fucking here for it.
that is an extremely apt comparisonYou remember that Bugs Bunny cartoon where Yosemite Sam challenged Bugs to a duel with a glove slap to the face? And Bugs answered by putting a brick in a glove and slamming the hell out of Yosemite Sam?
That first slap is Vic's suit, the brick smash is the TCPA countersuit by Funimation.
To make a long story (somewhat) short one of the biggest proponents to the #istandwithvic stuff is a alt-right grifter youtuber with the handle Hero Hei, Hei being the main character of the anime Darker than Black.

Which honestly just blows my mind, really. Vic is nobody to these people. He's a voice actor for 2 notable anime characters, one of whom doesn't need any great voice acting anyway.Ethan Van Sciver and his fucking chuds will 100% fund raise to pay whatever Vic's legal fees will be.

If they get Vic everything he wants and his name is cleared and he gets his job as voice actor back.....they don't even get anything out of it.
Like, atleast with Trump, you understand that Trump represents alt-right shitheels political perspectives and has transformed the country in such a way to make life more difficult for minorities, but with Vic....he's just a random VA celebrity. He won't do anything for them.

Is there a gif of

Vic winning would mean the status quo remains, and the "SJWs have been put in their place." Kind of a piece of the larger zeitgeist.Which honestly just blows my mind, really.

The individual involved barely matters. It's crucial to them that a message be sent to women in nerd that not only will their lives be made difficult for reporting sexual offences, but that they won't be believed and the accused will suffer no repercussions.
So long as they make clear that women are unwelcome and will be targeted for stepping out of line, the price tag doesn't matter
The end result in these people's alternative reality will be that although this lawsuit failed (due to lies & conspiracies against Vic), Vic still hasn't been found guilty of any crimes and as such a Good Christian White Straight Man™'s reputation will be seen as having been ruined for no good reason by evil SJWs.It's going to be fun to watch the goalposts shift further and further as it becomes more clear to the Vic stans that his lawsuit is destined for failure.
*sees people on "that" side still claim Vic is going to be victorious*
*sees Funimation filed their TCPA and it is biiiiig*
I hope these people never gamble.
This!Looking through #IStandWithVic really bums me out, because amongst all the shitstains are some people who strike me as just young, socially isolated and vulnerable.
I've seen so many twitter accounts that appear to be run primarily by young women and girls, who seem to have found a sense of belonging and community in anime and fandom, who see attacks on Vic as attacks on their own community.
These are people whose want of community and acceptance is being weaponised by culture warriors and bad faith actors and turned against survivors of assault and other prominent women in need spaces.
Like it just really fucking sucks to see people whose hearts are seemingly in the right space align themselves with grifters and trolls
I've noticed that too, what a shame

Another filing has dropped. Got some interesting names on there too. Ex: Screech
Vic probably mentioned all of them by name in his deposition.So.... I don't mind hy
o.O
I would have to look up a few of them but what is Chuck Huber doing on that list?
I don't recall hearing anything about him in this situation.
though I wouldn't be surprised if he had emails and what not related to the case of interest.
(I have to go to work though so I will check in later what is going on.)
