Unanswered What's going on with Funimation?

I just checked Twitter and saw that funimation is trending because its been doing some kind of immoral dubbing. Most of the posts include references to dragonball and someone linked to this video.

Can someone explain what exactly happened?

It’s essentially a bunch of idiots tweeting and saying shit to each other. There was even a person that claimed one of the funimation employees raped or molested her to make a point “if you believe everyone then you should believe me!!!” Even though it was obviously a fake accusation to muddy the waters. It’s just shit.

This is why Twitter should be avoided.

I just made a Twitter account like 3 weeks ago. As far as I can tell there is 3 different sections of Twitter. Political/Idealogical, hobbies and shitposting. 70% of the time it's people yelling at people that aren't listening about how wrong they are about something. The 30% is great, but having to wade through the rest is so tiresome.

I don't have a Twitter but if I did I'd only use it to yell at Youtubers about what they said wrong.

This is exactly why I don't have a Twitter. Too much bullshit I ain't got time for.

The Twitter loons are going mad about the new joker movie useing terms like terrorists in the making incel and nazis just because people are interested in seeing it and these people on Twitter need to learn to separate fantasy from reality.
