Vic Mignogna's Sexual Harassments

[Grey Star]

Yeah, it’s pretty much what this whole debacle is about. They could care less what Vic did or did not do—in fact, even if the court found him guilty of all crimes, these people don’t care about that. Instead, they focus on some fantasy world idea that the “left” is taking over anime and making it political (even though animation always had political concepts since the dawn of time, but you know, that breaks the narrative lol).

There's always conspiracy theories about the left somehow manipulating things to "win" when in "reality" they "lost." Woman in the prime of her youth beats retired 50 something tennis player? He owed money to the mob. My "friend" said they wouldn't be surprised if the judge was corrupt out of the blue in the conversation. They've pretty much already made their minds up.

It seems all the tweet embeds in this thread broke.

As I said, these people don’t care about a thing regarding Dragon Ball. They don’t care about the voice actors. They do not care about the content and quality of the dubbing—these are superficial means to these people. What they care about is constructing this monster, and target (primarily white) young boys into a state of confusion, fear and anger. It’s an extension of the cancer the GamerGate was essentially about (lol ethnic journalism, when in reality, it was an horizon to bring and create "acceptable" harassment against female creators under the guise of “journalism”, to fool young boys to feeding into their anger and do their bidding); a playbook of the alt-right over and over again.

The fact that your friends, @Grey Star, completely made up his mind is testimony to such absurd propaganda that these guys are committing, and your friend, and others, are falling for this again and again.

I mean, corrupted judge? What’s next? The justice systems is fucked, and the only justice is for desperate means?

Well, we already have one fancy idiot that pushing such thoughts:

Maybe your friend needs to rethink his position in this.

If the allegations are true, that would be a shame because Vic did voice acting in the animes I like.

Someone says "The secrets lies beneath and will always come out." I agree.

Regarding a question posed to my last post, I don't know that there really is much to be gained other than a pushed agenda. Vic won't be working with Funimation anymore, lawsuits tend to burn bridges. They stopped working with Bruce Falconer over a lawsuit and he was loved by Dragon Ball fans. That was a lot less nasty than this has been

The decision came down a few days ago; all of the remaining claims were dismissed. TCPA dismissals are with prejudice.

Icky Vicky and his LOL Lawyers made complete asses out of themselves, and hope their incompetence will be showcase in all law schools of things to NOT do in a law firm. Even those who (for some reason) still stand by him, have to agree that his lawyers screwed him over. In short...

Can't wait for Funimation to try and find a more suitable actor with talent to voice Broly.

Some of the Vic fans are already calling for a new, "fairer" judge.

But Rooster Teeth found a replacement for Qrow who seemingly is as good as his predecessor. Which is great.

 

[JamesYTP]

A fairer judge....so I hear he's squabbling over legal fees  or something?

 

[ShineCero]

Yup.

Vic basically remained clueless about the whole deal (and threw Nick under the bus by saying, he never knew the guy... despite having photos with him. So much for friendship, eh?). 

Here's the summary of the fees by a user Terez that was following the case:

$238,042.42 is what Vic owes now, ignoring the sanctions that are conditioned on appeal
$145,500.00 is the baseline appeal-conditioned sanctions that Vic might already owe simply because Percy is an idiot and he already filed a premature Notice of Appeal (which will inevitably be dismissed) so...
$380,542.42 is the total he already owes by that logic (which the lawyers say is based on standard TX textualist practice)
$525,542.42 is the total he will owe if he appeals and loses (no disinterested lawyers think he has a chance of winning on appeal)

However, if he appeals, it is almost certain that the Defendants will appeal the sanctions ruling, as the judge awarded them significantly less than their documented expenses (not to mention their requested punitive sanctions). Most of the lawyers seem to think that, if they do appeal, they will certainly get more money, because the judge cut an extraordinary amount from their ask. So Vic could end up owing them closer to $800k when all is said and done, quite aside from what he owes his own attorneys.
