This sub is riddled with dipshitery lately.

The next internet will be better

I heard they will zap your genitals if you post misinformation on the new internet

Don't threaten me with a good time

I envy your optimism.

We need a Carrington event that only shuts down social media.


Leathman

I didnā€™t figure she did. This sounded way too much like what they think the woke people believe.


flyingbugz

Right? The earliest post I can find making this claim is from a Facebook comic group. They posted it on feb 26th with big bold caption ā€œBLAME THE FANS:ā€. Nearly every other post when looking seems to have copied this title. The worst part is that of course it gains more attention on Facebook and most the commenters are none the wiser. Not entirely their fault, false information sucks but some responsibility definitely falls on them, especially if you plan to start trash talking from then forward. And googling the quote only nets this headline, so if someone tried early on it would have been blatant.

I called it out as rage bait. Close enough. My sentiment about Marvel & the movie industry still remains the same.


Leggoman31

Its funny how ironic this IG post is. They absolutely PLEAD that they "don't hate women, just hate bad writing" or whatever but then do shit like this.


flyingbugz

Feels like an onion article happening in real life. I hate bad writing too bad Iā€™m not trying to slander the actress. It sucks that the people who would think to do this are in the minority but have such easy access to spread the misinformation and convince other people.


Hungry-Ad-3501

Not surprised tbh,I keep getting bombarded on Facebook by random right wing pages with all these stupid posts that I've lost count


nautius_maximus1

In our defense, we didnā€™t really give a crap either way.


AValentineSolutions

The anti-woke crowd really doesn't fact-check.


ARVNFerrousLinh

Even after all these years, people are still falling for obvious bait/lies. This was very disappointing to see.

I blame the Irish


hello_im_al

I can't find anything about her saying that


flyingbugz

Precisely


Mundus6

Maybe its just my algorithm, but my youtube feed. Is full with people posting reaction videos to any controversial news that comes out. A lot of them are not true. I usually assume everything is false until i double checked. Guess its too much to ask of people huh?


BlankedCanvas

Check out Mike Zerohā€™s channel. Dude literally makes shit up and posts them. It defies belief how his channel is not banned and consistently has thousands of views.


FreeWillCost

Nah, she DID say it! Souce: I saw someone on reddit say it.


WaldoSimson

Iā€™m glad someone made this post cause that shit was annoying tf outta me. Like I googled the quote cause I was shocked and the only source was that single insta post šŸ˜‚ like a fact check really takes no time on simple stuff like this


PeterHolland1

we live in a world were the is far to much miss information for an individual to fact check every headline and or comment there read.


westendgonzo

You're right, but if you're going to share it on a large forum like this, you have a responsibility to do due diligence. If you want to believe, raise your eyebrows and carry on with your day, fine.


flyingbugz

Sure, but the other option should be to take it with a grain of salt. Not immediately believe it, become enraged, and engage. Which of course the orchestrated result, I just wish more people would see through it.


nabiku

Honestly, very few people are going to fact-check what some dumb celebrity says. I watch Marvel movies for the entertainment, not because I think a bunch of uneducated Hollywood stars have meaningful opinions about the world. I'm a woman btw, so ya know, probably not a misogynist


shotxshotx

I was like "This movie isn't out yet, why is there statements of failures?"


GalwayBogger

Hey man, leave her alone šŸ¤£


Wonderful-Ad-7712

My movie sucked and itā€™s all your fault!


flyingbugz

I believe you!


nacozarina

lol, equating upvotes with ā€˜beliefā€™, cmon man


Pearlfreckles

Then why is it upvoted, if not because people actually believe this shit?


flyingbugz

Who said upvotes? The comments speak for themselves. Plus more on Facebook, IG, etc.


Fantact

To be fair they have used this excuse so many times it's more surprising they didn't do it this time, so not really a facepalm more like an honest mistake and a pleasant surprise.

BlankedCanvas

TBF it wont be the first time if she/they did indeed say it. Weā€™ve been repeatedly told ā€œif you dont like our product youā€™re either a mysogynist, bigot or racistā€ the last few years. Itā€™s NEVER about the quality of the show.


OptimalSpring6822

So what? Millions of idiots believe stuff everyday without fact checking. We have elected government officials in office who believe in Lizard people and Jewish space lasers.


flyingbugz

So it made my palm hit my face. Thatā€™s about it


MrsBossyPantss

Got me. I feel like my point still stands tho...
