just a bunch of different people doing odd projects

That kind of crowdfunding can work. It's not about the product at that point. It's the message.

and it's working, because some dummies at marvel started freaking out about it like they are the bosses of comic books

Streisand effect

You'll have to fill me in what exactly you're thinking about.

Ah Streisand effect.

The ultimate fingertrap in PR.

I'm somewhat ill-informed, I just know that a youtube channel called "Diversity & Comics" started doing a dumb half-assed stream where he criticized and had a laugh at what marvel and DC have been putting out (DC somewhat less)

and it exploded

the guy was a failed comic artist I think, but he LOVED comics and it really came through in his videos

but when the guy got a few thousand subs, some of the people at Marvel started getting worried, because comics are doing so shit that a bad youtube channel kinda overshadows them by quite a bit

but they kept trying this bullshit with the guy, he's a honorably discharged marine? I think? so the SJWs AT MARVEL said "AW HEY LET'S TRY TO GIVE THE GUY PTSD!!!1!" because they are a very tolerant people

Well that's just cruel.

and when he said "even I could make a better comic" they said "well go for it, racist"

so he made an indiegogo that started to go crazy

so MARK WAID started saying shit, and it looks a lot like he intimidated ANTARCTIC PRESS out of publishing the comic by making these fucked-up guilt-by-association accusations, and they dropped it

which didn't help them at all lol

I think it hit a third of a million?

like wow it looks weird when I try to type it out

I don't even LIKE comics, but DAMN

million dollar extreme

and I know it wasn't just Mark Waid, the fanboys just HATED that this indiegogo was taking off, like self-awareness, OMG

Thanks for the write up.

sorting through drama is really hard

I try

Yeah. Sounds like a good example of ****ing people off so they decided to send a message by dumping some cash.

Best of luck for these guys though. Sounds like they're getting it pretty hard.

I think he's ok, he's got a few things going

everything they try to do to him, only helps him

but damn, let nerds buy their shit, I'm mystified at how we got here

This is how SJW works, unfortunately.

Look into the humanities departments in the 90s.

*The Closing of the American Mind* was the first sign. And that was 1987.

I can barely keep up with it

Yeah. I have an issue with social media where it can be really hard for people to get caught up in stuff.

It's badly disorganized. Reddit is better than most. But even that has problems.

Wikipedia in theory is the place, but that's...difficult.

Other wikis almost never seem to stay updated or have their own problems.

oh God, wikimedia is corrupt as all fuck

hot tip: if you take donations, don't take pictures of your clique flashing stacks of cash and drinking wine

and the edit wars will always go to whoever has absolutely no life, which tends to be cliques of SJWs

I loved this
