I don't get why people would stand for someone like Vic, he did apologize and said he was going to seek counseling and God but then a few weeks later said he was going to try to salvage his career in the industry, making his apology seem half hearted.
Are you an idiot? Do you not know what the word "counseling" means?
Multiple other dictionaries will give you the same thing. What's stopping you from saying that the "counselor" recommended Vic to get legal help from his plight?
Not Overtly, I don't like how he got people to pay for his lawyer despite the fact that he is worth 4 million dollars. If he was being sued I would have understood the need to defend himself but when he is the one suing it comes off as using your fans.
If you even bother listening to Nick for at least a good amount of time, you would know why. Even with someone worth $4 million (and that's not even official), these lawsuits are time-consuming and expensive. Nevermind the face that this was our choice because we're tired of this retarded #MeToo garbage taking part in every single medium that people enjoy and publicizing it.
Also, he got kicked out of job opportunities. Without this lawsuit to sue people defaming him, his job opportunities/money-making opportunities would still not be available.
I did overlook things my apologizes, it was someone else, though he shouldn't have associated himself with the Gofundme. As for the question for where I stand. I think Vic being fired for misconduct was the right thing to do, should they have done it earlier this whole thing wouldn't have escalated as much as it did.
No it wouldn't. It escalated because they publicized it. If this was kept under wraps, no one would have known about it and therefore no lawsuit would have taken place.
Also, they didn't fire him for "misconduct", They fired him for "harassment". At that point, the investigation has to show that evidence of harassment existed and that the investigation met the Texas Workforce Commission standards, which apparently, it didn't.
It was more so about defining sexual harassment that provoked them,
Sexual harassment is already defined by the Texas Workforce Commission. I suggest reading through this thread before asking about shit we already went through.
I don't have a Twitter, so most of the things I'm hearing are from Youtubers when I googled Vic, most of the information I was finding was months old. It gave me the impression that Yellow and Hiel are just riding the coat tails on something that many people have moved on from.
People haven't "moved on" from it, not just because of this lawsuit, but because people are still to this day actively trying to call conventions to cancel Vic's appearances there.
When I told them that giving unwarrented hugs to people you don't know fell under sexual harassment, they would erupt into tangents, saying that "If my mom hugs me, does that mean I can file harassment charges?" I told them that their mother had a different relationship than a stranger at a con.
Except Vic is not a stranger. Otherwise, these people wouldn't be going to Vic's booths.
Sexual harassment is clearly defined in the TWC.
State and federal laws protect employees from sexual harassment and employment discrimination based upon their sex, including pregnancy.

Conduct, which a reasonable person would find severely hostile or abusive, given an appropriate common sense sensitivity to social context, clearly will be regarded as sexual harassment. The objective severity of harassment is judged from the perspective of a reasonable person in the...

At best, what Vic is being accused of would be "simple teasing". In no way was a hostile environment created because the people who accused him of such stuff were either fine with it and had no complaints when it happened, didn't bother to tell anyone considering its nothingburger nature, or continued to hang out with him afterwards.
And this is all assuming that events like this happened "in the workplace".
Vic should have not been over passionate with his fans to begin with. It would have came back to him. Vic should have just apologized and then moved on with his life, if those attackers had an issue with him, he does not have to engage them.
He did apologize, over hugs and kissing people on the cheek, which by the way, are literally nothingburgers and could easily be rubbed off, and it only emphasizes the fragile nature of women and girls. Then new allegations popped up that got his contracts with Rooster Teeth, Funimation and multiple conventions severed.

By "true change", do you mean suicide?
Should people put you at a low point in order to stop being an MLP lover?
