I wish I could say I was surprised, but I don't think many of us are at this point really. Even though Vic's turned out to be a massive asshole who, on top of thinking he can do whatever he wants to people (especially women) because he's who he is, also couldn't give less of a crap about his fans, I still almost feel bad for him as he's had what has to be the absolute worst legal team in the world.

Key word being "almost" though.

Here's hoping Beard does lose his license, and hopefully Rekieta gets dropkicked back to wherever the hell he came out of. Speaking of, I don't know if it's been mentioned here already or not, but apparently his Twitter has been banned for a good little while now. From what I understand, right before the dismissal came out, he had a meltdown that was basically just begging for a Twitter ban. Probably knew what was about to come down and didn't want to be around when people naturally started asking questions. I'd imagine he'll play this all off as a 'tragedy', and 'clearly we're gonna appeal and get em in round two!' whenever he does return though.

People bemoan the mention of politics in here, but that ruse is straight out of the Republican playbook. Page 1, really. Nick comes off as the kind of guy who wants to be some kind of player.

I can guarantee you not a single one of these assholes have ever stopped to think about how it must feel to be a woman in an industry, State, nation and world so clearly built by and for white cishet men to fulfill the needs and whims of white cishet men.
This whole statement is incredibly offensive and straight up false.

Sweeping generalised statements have never been welcome on this website. Let's keep that in mind.

The 'never' is hyperbole on my part but I'm sticking by my general sentiment that there is a tremendous bias in favor white cishet men, especially where crimes against women and other minorities are concerned. That's not a ridiculous statement divorced from reality.

At least 98% (that's hyperbole) of Vic Mignogna supporters are trolls and the remaining 2% are True Believers. I have no problem calling the trolls rotten and at this point if you're still a True Believer who thinks this is all a conspiracy against Mignogna...well, yeah, I should show my age and shy away from being impolite here.

By the way, Nick Rekieta's Twitter account got suspended. I wish I could say I was surprised. The dude's VERY unprofessional & someone Vic shouldn't have hired as his attorney. Apparently it was over him calling someone a "fat cuck" as pointed out by this account here https://twitter.com/fredjfrancis/status ... 7282694144. Why did Vic think hiring this guy was a good idea again?

I'm pretty sure the hyperbole was all anyone was really concerned with about the statement, so long as we're not looking at a "white privilege isn't real you cuck"-type here.

Because Nick told him what he wanted to hear, and the two other lawyers Vic tried didn't. They both refused the case, before Nick finally reached out to Vic.

Course, I think the Risembool Rangers told us this, framing it as them "not being up to the task"... But I think we can read between the lines. I'll edit this if I find that wasn't true, but, that's what I heard.

Yeah. That guy was sucking Vic's dick HARD to become his lawyer. I get Vic wanted recourse for something he felt he needed it for, but he really should've just tried to mend the relationships or just let it be rather than sue these people. It's no wonder they came to an impasse & the judge dismissed all of the cases. But, apparently, they're going to appeal from what I've seen. Why? You have more to lose than gain! Vic could easily move to LA & get gigs out there like he's been doing. As long as he doesn't act anymore like a dick, he could still have a career in voice acting if he did that. It would probably be slow to start, but I imagine someone with his career could bounce back. I mean, he didn't get blacklisted, he just got fired from a company he worked for.
This all didn't need to happen in regards to the lawsuit. But, no going back now.

General reminder that YouTube-drinking-screamy-man is not Vic's actual incompetent lawyer, and is instead a more different incompetent lawyer, but they're all in bed with each others' payrolls anyway so ultimately whatever it's all kind of a wash of ridiculousness.

I wonder if that is intentional or just a happy result of their incompetence? Something that the Alt-Right and Trump himself do is repeat loudly with so much conviction that they turn a straightforward win for their foes into a wash. The Beard-Rekieta nonsense is so densely layered that it's enough to make anyone give up. Exhaust your foe until they gice up and have no chance of swaying the public opinion to their side. It's disgusting.

Right, but he owns the law firm that's representing Vic, right? And he adamantly defends him & tries to defame or discredit anyone with unrelated things (like the leaked blooper & outtake audio that was made almost 20 years ago, which he related to how Vic was fired, even though the 2 weren't related whatsoever only because of them being about people who made others uncomfortable, but with different intents & that one party didn't intend to release theirs & the other purposefully did the things he did in public) & whatnot. Plus, he's been presenting himself as the guy who's been helping him with this case. It's confusing.
