Targeted Harassment Campaign by Acolyte Fans
posted 1 year ago by Unknownsailor 1 year ago by Unknownsailor +72 / -0

There is a targeted harassment campaign underway on X against Star Wars Theory, Geeks & Gamers, Nerdrotic, and Ryan Kimmel

Geeks and Gamers response

Ryan Kinel response

Last I heard targeted harassment was against X terms of service, so why hasn't the accounts doing this been suspended yet?

Very much true. And their level of awareness, on who's who and where's where is very lacking.

So they only go for the "biggest fish" they can think of, while failing to realize that those so-called bigger fish barely make up even a tiny tiny portion (if that) of what's influencing audiences to reject their shitty products.

Because it's (d)ifferent. Same as always.

Sydney Watson and a bunch of smaller YouTubers like Star Wars Meg, JesterBell and others are getting hit by the group too.

Oh I'm sure, the morally outraged always attack those who are deemed moral reprobates.

It's a shame they cancelled Acolyte, the story was interesting and if they weren't focused on creating the "gayest Star Wars yet" it would have done better.

Plenty of ways to voice disappointment without harassment of others if your show is getting cancelled. Not sure why it’s the reviewers fault when the numbers of actual viewers was the issue.

Anyways, I’ve seen hashtags for shows that are about to be cancelled with fans trying to appeal to the shows producers and such instead. No harassment, just a bunch of voices asking for another season and expressing their love of the show. The show Lucifer comes to recent memory.

I have a whole host of cancelled 1 and 2 season shows in my media collection: Almost Human, American Gods, Debris, Dollhouse, Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, the list is long. No one ever cared if fans of those shows put together a petition to save the show. The difference here is the whiny progtards, who are fundamentally incapable of accepting that their show was cancelled for being bad on a level that you could put it in a B-61 nuke and use it for nuclear fission.

Haha too true. It’s disturbing to see a trend with how people deal with things that don’t go their way. A decade and a half ago you’d either just be sad but move on with life or you’d do the petition thing as you said.

But these people go mental. I’ve seen so many shows I really enjoyed get axed or get cut short in my lifetime. Whether it’s from lack of interest or it didn’t get enough funding etc. It sucks but good grief, it is not life ending like they make it out to be. You’ll be sad for a week and then forget about it! People can’t handle adversity anymore.
