SJWs seem to be acting up a lot more lately. There's the Cho thing, and the Hugos and now this.
Any special reason?
Fun Fact: One of the people on the list is dead.
Not only dead but been dead for over 12 years now.
So in other words, Mary Sue is trying to pull a publicity stunt to try and scrap some relevance.
Oh yeah. They're milking the Eddie Berganza controversy for all it's worth.
Though, to my knowledge, only Berganza seems to be an actual harasser, since DC has actually penalized him for his shit. The rest sound like hearsay and tall tales.
What did he do? Or, what is he accused of doing?
The message I'm getting is
What did he do?
What a monster.
The funny thing is that girls don't read comics to begin with so telling them to not read anything by anyone who wrote or said anything "triggering" eliminates everyone.
Girls then continue to not read comics.
Nothing changes.
Koriand'r gets spitroasted by Roy and Jason as they highfive off panel and the world keeps turning.
Let's look at the names they have so far:
Touched a guy's balls and bit his ear while drunk off his ass. He's long since apologized.
No joking, that guy is a straight up creeper. DC has unofficially banned him from ever attending conventions. How he keeps getting work is beyond me.
The author of the article linked as "proof" admits that he doesn't have enough facts to substantiate anything he's written, and chose to run the article anyway because he's biased against Edmondson.
According to The Mary Sue article the site links to, the person accusing him of "sexual harassment" made some really bad sexual jokes at a convention panel that feature her. I'm a little doubtful, both because they don't have corroboration of her story about his sexual innuendo and racist remarks, but that the accuser mentions that Lobdell was the "only straight person on the panel". Lobdell has apologized for offending the person in question.
He's been dead since 2004
Another Mary Sue article. The article is very biased against Upchurch, something that can be felt when he was arrested for domestic assault and they refused to publish his comment because he claimed he was struck first. The article used as reference is nothing but a fluff piece denigrating Upchurch, praising his wife, and offers no real information.
Another Mary Sue article used as evidence. If these people really wanted to be taken seriously, they should really use different sources. They literally say Brain Wood is an abuser because he made a pass at some girl almost a decade ago. That's it. The victim, of course, is some woman working in comics who has an axe to grind and is very, very feminist.
So there you have it. It's a bunch of bullshit with very little redeeming value and a serious lack of verifiable information. Except for Berganza. That guy's a genuine freak.
This is a really odd application of boycotting and public shaming.
When it happened to Chik-Fil-A and Hobby Lobby, it's because the owners of those companies were literally putting money down and affecting things in a provable way.
When you blacklist and attack people for "abuse" and "harassment" you aren't hindering their political influence by denying them money to give to certain lobbyist groups, you're just lashing out and trying to enact punishment for thought crimes.
If some comic author says something mean about a shitty feminist critic, like the writers at the Mary Sue, that doesn't mean that all the proceeds from their work goes towards oppressing women and making misogynistic laws. It doesn't mean that women all around the world are being harmed either.
So.. This shit is just bullying people over disagreement with an extremist ideologically-driven angry mob.
