Maybe people would be more accepting of Eiichi if we stopped sweeping his actions under the rug? Like, if we stopped trying to claim he did nothing wrong and rather focused on the fact he did a terrible thing but didn't MEAN anything wrong? Sadly, intention =/= action in his case so erasing his actions might not be the best way to go around this
WELL, you must be new here. BOLD of you to assume they (meaning anyone who hates him, etc.) want to accept Eiichi. It’s so much easier to hate him, don’t you know?
Allow me to direct you to the three TED Talks. Tumblr kept hiding one of them, but no worries, I found it. Much to the dismay of those Eiichi haters out there.
TED Talk #1 (Don’t be fooled; it may seem like an EiiOto response but it turned into a Defend Eiichi post real quick)
TED Talk #2 (This was the one I couldn’t find. But jokes on you, you POS website.)
TED Talk #3 (And here you will find it thoroughly discussed.)
And here is Admin Vice’s response to the subject.
As you can see, we don’t sweep his actions under the rug. We’ve addressed them. Our jokes and memes are simply that - jokes and memes. There’s a lot of hate surrounding him, so we throw those in to ruffle some feathers and change things up. Don’t mistake our joking as blatant disregard for everything that has happened. We aren’t erasing anything. We’re simply addressed it before, and since we know people dislike it when we do act like we ignore his actions...that’s why we post the memes. It fuels us.
