Context, bro. Got no idea what you're talking about. Right about what? And Vic's done several vids.
About the people trying to stop him from appearing at upcoming events.
Dude, don't really feel like poisoning my recommendations with Vic videos, but who are these people and which events are you talking about? The only cons that still invite him are these shady overpriced places that fit the other definition of "con" better.

Mignogna abused being in our spaces for over twenty years. He should be expelled from them permanently. These are our spaces as fans and we deserve the basic protection of not having a known abuser allowed into them.

He shouldn't be at conventions anymore, period. The way he fraternizes with and touches his female fans is inappropriate. Sticking him near other guests who could be co-workers he sexually harassed or assaulted is not a good idea.

I don’t get why I should feel bad about a predatory racist homophobe because he isn’t entitled to be at cons anymore. :roll:

Is he racist? That’s news to me. Obviously he’s a predatory piece of shit and homophobic mmm maybe? The only piece of evidence of his homophobia is debatable (but it wouldn’t surprise me if he was dude’s who have no respect for women’s personal space tend to be very homophobic)

I seem to recall he allegedly said something anti-semetic to a fellow voice actor who was Jewish. I think trying to “save him”? I don’t remember exactly. Maybe I did jump the gun a little with the R-word. Anyone have more info?

And I believe he is a least a little homophobic. Most believers in Monotheistic religions are on SOME level. Mind, I don’t think he’s Fred Phelps levels of hatefulness or anything, but he definitely believes homosexuality is wrong.

EDIT: made my point a bit less inflammatory.

Seriously.

For someone who's Christian, he's not handling the whole penance thing very well. The bad shit you do has consequences.

Vic shows every sign of being a narcissist. I know people personally who act like him and I can say without a doubt that people like him are incapable of admitting they are wrong. The idea that he can do wrong literally doesn't occur to him.

I'm honestly not surprised a lot of people can't stand him.

That's the problem, though. The people who can't stand him are the ones who know him personally.

As far as OTHER folks are concerned, he's a superficially pleasant man who projects a lot of self-confidence. People are naturally drawn to that... Which is why a lot of narcissists end up in positions of power. Ordinary folks will eventually get sick of them, but only after they've been around a while.

Looks like Vic did another con this weekend with a bunch of hugging and close contact.

Totally on brand with Vic and any con that invited him to go on with the show during a pandemic.

If that isn't proof enough that he's just a fucking moronic sexual assaulter I don't know what is.

At this point, I’m more concerned about the potential health risks of Mignogna being huggy with people than I am about any MeToo implications behind it. I’m guessing that makes me sound like an asshole, but I probably would’ve been less baffled by his behavior right now if the world wasn’t in the middle of a serious pandemic.

#MeToo is all about health, though.

I'm more pissed off at the con for not cancelling and/or postponing their date.

A lot of people (at least in the west) don't believe it's anything more than a small cold that's over exaggerated...despite the entire world being in lock down. Ignorance is truly the world's biggest enemy.

I think what's keeping this topic alive is the fact that he's done so much yet is still getting away with all of it. I get where you're coming from, but try to understand where others are coming from as so many people like him get away with so much. I don't think it's too much to ask of him or anyone else to just keep their hands to themselves.
