I’m not bothering to reblog that whole post floating around because that idiot doesn’t need any more attention
I can’t understand why people honestly think It is cool any funny to harass artists in real life for drawing pictures they don’t like on the internet. And the people who get behind it because they don’t like that artist either? You’re just encouraging that type of behaviour and making cons worse for everyone else in the future.
These are all completely hypothetical situations because I’m not going to give any further attention to the real one that happened, but say someone runs up to someone like Buckley at a con and like, throws a drink in his face. Then they brag about it on the internet and people pat them on the back because the internet decided they don’t like Buckley based on a lot of hearsay and a comic they don’t enjoy.
If word gets around that “hey, physically messing with comic artists who draw things you don’t like is socially acceptable behaviour!”, it doesn’t take long for that kind of thing to escalate. What if people start messing with artists like Scott Ramsoomair because they don’t think they update enough? What if they go after Scott Kurtz because he has strong opinions (that he usually articulates more thoughtfully than people give him credit for)? What if Kate Beaton becomes a target because she put her site on hiatus? Andrew Hussie because he asked people to respect his copyright? If a person justifies harassment of artists by saying “they did a thing on the internet that I didn’t like” and you give them any kind of positive attention for it, you are putting a target on anyone who has ever made someone on the internet angry ever. And for the record, it’s not very hard to make someone out there in the big wide web angry.

whaAAT THE FUCK IS HAPENNIGNG HERE
The episode in which sonic is just burning some pixie sticks at the St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
Manic the Hedgehog gave up his seat to become a prince after meeting two homeless strangers who taught him the phrase “Hakuna Matata” and is rumored to now be the drummer for a band that honors Bob Marley and accepted the Rastafarian lifestyle.His name is…
CHRONIC THE HEDGEHOG.
He has actually been around for about 20 years in different incarnations. I remember seeing a 2d style shirt when I was a kid.
Gentlemen. The grand daddy of sonic OCs. I can’t wait to hear about his religious and sexual orientations that have no impact on the plot whatsoever. Also he better inflate or I’ll find someone who will.
