Not too interested in discussing the substance or speculating about career effects (don't expect any) but not deleting your reddit account when you get hired seems nutso!

You would think some one would’ve started a firm to erase people’s digital past after the James Gunn debacle.:thinking:

Yeah this is much tamer than Gunn, and not going to cause any harm like e.g. Letitia's recent comments. An apology seems very likely, but SC2 wasn't coming until like 2024+, don't see this being an issue with staying power.

 

More curious how it plays vis a vis 2021 china release, but didn't have too high hopes there anyway.

I dont know how that comment would affect the china release but ok...people are overreacting nothing will change..if there was a proof then maybe but from the moment that thats not the case i doubt it...

Unless there’s a photo posted by him that verified it was him when he did the AMA then I see no reason why he can’t deny it was even him.🤷‍♂️

In some instances simu responded to the comments saying that this isnt true....there is no reason for statement at all at least for now...it will bring unwanted attention...from the moment that people will forget about it by the end of week i dont know why he should do anything...

 

 

Ps all of this started bc of one person on twitter who basically without any proof whatsoever said that he was involved...and then another person supported that...and later on it was revealed that this person had made comments against homosexuals so.....not a great source all around

Simu Liu could easily deny he made those comments if they weren't true. Regardless this won't cost him is job but should be another lesson to regarding social media that I'm sure will come up unfortunately in future for people in fame (unfortunate that comments like these will be made just to be clear).

 

An apology to those who felt hurt by his comments isn't too much to ask I don't think regardless if he had addressed them already or not.

I am not gonna read them, can someone summarise how bad and what bad did he say.

1. some asked "what is something people do that makes you despise them?" he described musilm terrorists.

 

2. someone asked, "what are some "asshole" things that you say or do on a regular basis?" he said he supports gender equality but women are not as good as man in sport and he get frustrated playing with them alongside.

 

3. someone confessed being pedophile. he said it's like gay, there're spectrum. the way we're treating them is wrong and he felt sympathetic towards pedophile because they can't get helps. he also said touching minor is disgusting and vile, don't watch child porn, don't do stupid thing.

Based on these nothing major. Minor problematic stuff but not too bad. No one likes terrorists. I mean sure its asshole thing to say but it is fact that women are not as good as man in many sports, I can list cricket to be one example, a good school level men's team can easily beat International women cricket team.

The third is more problematic than others but can see what he wanted to say. Will be bad if he get cancelled for this, considering there are celebs who are dating with big age diff. and here Simu is just being sympathetic.

Noone has to agree with what he said but every rational human being at least should see the point he is trying to make even if he didnt use the best example

I've been wondering if Shang-Chi would be included at all in something like an upcoming Avengers movie after all controversy with China. I feel like that would have more of an impact there than this stuff.

Agreed...imo he will be part of them team but maybe smaller...then again if the movie does get released there and there are not any problems then......

China and USA are in a commercial and cultural war now. China will find any excuse to ban the most popular American films, the recent changes in legislation are proof of this.

 

And the Simu comments? C'mon, we can do better than that, I'm sure we can find a comment from 2012 where he said that he didn't like fries or something.

Like honestly, this is why I was thinking of leaving Twitter.


I would hate to become famous and then have every stupid thing I’ve ever said on the internet come back and bite me in the ass.

 

We’re not all perfect. We’ve all definitely said stupid shit in our lives. Simu did say some stupid things but it’s being completely blown out of proportion for what it is.

Read the pinned post y'all


saying this again for the people who got sad faces ;)

 

also,

 

I thought of a really great way for Marvel to fix this problem. Have Shang Chi 2 be Nothing but Tony Leung for two hours. 🥵🥰
