Well would you look at that...

So glad I adopted this tag many years ago.










Variety: Ray Fisher Accuses Joss Whedon of ‘Abusive, Unprofessional’ Behavior on ‘Justice League’ Set

And of course we all remember this:

Joss Whedon Is a ‘Hypocrite Preaching Feminist Ideals,’ Ex-Wife Kai Cole Says (Guest Blog)
“He used his relationship with me as a shield … so no one would question his relationships with other women or scrutinize his writing as anything other than feminist,” she writes

Plus a very angry article here:

20 Years Later, and the Women of Angel Still Deserve More
The deaths of Darla, Fred, and Cordelia Chase were a waste

ETA: I still love my shows. They were more than one man and most of the people who contributed are great - possibly greater than we knew, since the man in question was a hindrance and a menace. :( (See the s8 comics as to how he fared without them!)

Just as with people like Marion Zimmer Bradley who's Darkover books, and whose editing of what were Darkover fanfiction anthologies; as well as the Sword & Sorcery fantasy anthologies launched the careers of many authors, and ultimately led me to write my own stories and helped shape the person I am ~ and was revealed by her daughter to be as much a paedophile as her husband.

Just as with my parents, and just as with JK Rowling, who, I said of to a hige; distressed fan, that they shouldn't let the evil they do take away the good they did for you and to keep on enjoying the books and the characters that mean so much to you.

I will not let his evil take away what the characters he created gave me and still give me. I will continue to play in his sandbox; even though he will forever be personally banished from my part of it.

This. The shows will always have a place in my heart, and their brilliance will always be important to me. And they were so much more than just Joss. Where would he be without his writers and actors and directors etc etc.

Here's to banishment!
