I repeat, the Snyder exists, and he is woke. www.themarysue.com/zack-snyder-calls-out-bigoted-fans-theres-no-room-for-hate/He's getting backlash, which reminds me of when he bashed The Donald and endorsed Uncle Joe. I noticed the people who usually post culture war entertainment news here to stir up angry circle jerks are being quiet as a church mouse about this (wonder why?) so I figured I'd post it. Personally, I'm loving it. Certain types have pledged allegiance to Zack as the alt-right geek messiah because he likes Ayn Rand and isn't affiliated with Disney, and now that they've helped get his movie released, in part through being obnoxious pieces of shit, the leopard is eating their faces. Lol. |

Snyder boned himself by announcing he was doing an event with Geeks + Gamers ahead of time when they tried to warn him of it being an issue.
That said, the event still raised over $100 grand for charity.

I don’t know what Geeks + Gamers is, but I don’t see how that’s necessarily “woke.”
He seems genuine with his comments, which is good.
The irony of calling support for American Asians “woke” is that the progressive left in America have been treating American Asians like garbage in many ways for years now.
They treat them like privileged whites in college admissions (this should be a bigger scandal than it is right now) to keep them out and then ignore the significant success many have professionally as well.
Then they love to pretend they’ve always been with them and considered them a minority once it’s convenient (e.g. right now).

Geeks and Gamers are not bigoted or alt-right , lol. They have no political affiliation. Though they seem obsessed with hating Kathleen Kennedy , Brie Larson and Rian Johnson.

He didn't seem to get it and made an announcement about it a few weeks prior on another channel. The Twitter mob lost their shit. The most likely scenario is WB told him he needed to make it clear he wasn't affiliated with Geeks + Gamers. The whole thing is stupid.

They have no political affiliation, but their entire channel is devoted to complaining about how SJWs are ruining entertainment? |

No they also review movies, shows, and video games, do trailer reactions, stream gameplay, and give praise when they feel it is needed to certain companies and people. Politically most lean right other lean left, but they concur that SJW-isms are making entertainment worse, which has been the content that they are most associated with since 2017 after The Last Jedi came out.

Lemme help with facts and logic:
-despite supposedly "warning" him it'd look bad to be associated with them, and it all probably being a sinister plot by that dastardly WB, G+G took it super personal and were SEETHING over Zack's "slanderous" comments. Can you say "Cope"?
-we all have different labels (I could have used "secret Last Jedi-liking grifter") but let's just say they're no strangers to complaining about feminism and --forced-- diversity (they've made over *one hundred* videos about Brie Larson alone)
-Zack Snyder is a Hollywood Democrat who made Sucker Punch to "indict" geek culture over "sexism", endorsed Biden, and joked that his idol/hero would "fucking murder" Trump if she were alive today. Needless to say, some people bet on the wrong horse. Zack is not an ally. They say denial is the first stage of grief...

To my knowledge, the Justice League film was never a part of the SJW debate at all. Not sure this is a necessary discussion.
As far as Geeks & Gamers is concerned, from what I've seen, they are a pretty obnoxious group and shouldn't be taken to seriously, at least not when it comes to social discussions.
