Gamers are so fucking embarrassing man... These people will harass a voice actor, because they don't like that the character the person plays killed a beloved character.

It's like they cannot tell fiction from reality.

Edit:

Anik Talukder, a 28-year-old south Asian man living in the United Kingdom, said he apologized at least 10 times to Schmidt-Hori after accepting her Zoom invitation to discuss his Reddit post about her.

Look... It's great this person felt remorse, but Jesus Christ these people fold immediately. A bunch of racist paper tigers.

Honestly, that's most racist people. As soon as they actually meet the target of their vitriol, they'll usually fold. Just make sure they're alone and not with their racist buddies.

The same goes for most forms of bigotry.

It’s not just gamers it’s in almost every corner of geek fandom. Remember how a bunch of losers attacked Kelly Marie Tran because they blamed her for the new Star Wars slop.
