Oh no, I thought the tweet was funny before I read the secret

[iff_and_xor]

From just this secret (I haven’t read the article you mention) I feel a little conflicted about this, especially because they tagged him in that tweet. Tagging a celebrity feels like an imposition or actively asking for a response. I also think that while his comment wasn’t super positive, it was pretty benign – more of a joke than an insult or a shaming comment.

Maybe I’m missing a bunch of context from other examples. I do think I might feel differently if he went around commenting at random fans or was more argumentative.

[nanslice]

I have the same reaction as him, so I'm cool with it lol.

I mean, they’re not very good fans if they view Joe as someone to be heartbroken over. There’s having your own interpretation of something and then there’s missing the whole point of it. There were a lot of very vocal fans for that show that could most kindly be described as dangerously stupid.

[hey_hey_hey]

Normal people outside of fandom think lusting after and sympathizing with killers is weird and creepy.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah no. If they wanted to be left alone to fetishize a murderer don't @ him about it. As soon as you tag him you lose that argument.

Anthony Geary played Luke Spencer on General Hospital. After the character raped a woman, Tony had women scream at him that they wanted Luke/him to rape them. Now, those women obviously didn't want to be raped, but Geary was at best bothered, and at worst traumatized by the experience. I can imagine Penn might want to keep Joe's fandom somewhat reasonable when he engages with them.

[(Anonymous)]

The show is basically a PSA about red flag dudes. He wasn’t the only one schooling the fans; the entire cast and crew were doing it.

[(Anonymous)]

Looks at the comments... Damn. Can't even escape antis and thought police on FS anymore.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, if you don't want to be shamed DON'T FUCKING TAG ACTORS. I don't know who this is but his twit is funny and it's not being a douche, actors are people and they don't need to be constantly involved in your blobros

[(Anonymous)]

Playing devil's advocate for a second here though, I think you could read this particular comment mostly as a comment on the actor/the actor's skills rather than just mindless thirsting after the character (mainly the "actor as Joe is breaking my heart" part).

[(Anonymous)]

No I'm sorry, Penn is 100% in the right here and the fact you can't see that is a concern.

[(Anonymous)]

Then don't go seeking for approval from him.

I don't think I've seen either one, but this period of history is fascinating to me. Why do you think it's a better movie, OP?

I'm convinced there's someone into scat on the WoW dev team as well given that there are countless shit-gathering/shit-cleaning/just general shit-related quests in that game as well. Once or twice is a coincidence, multiple times every expansion is a someone's kink getting put into the game, lmao.

I can relate to this, but I think of the "I, Claudius" theme... "Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud hatch out," is where we're at.

I'm not sure whether we've currently got Caligula or Nero, though.

That's kind of what happens with fandom friends. You connect over a common interest and when that common interest goes away, often so do the friends.

I almost never get them in “reverse rainbow” order, but I found today’s connections really pleasing in a way that made the order much easier. My roommates had a harder time with it because of some areas of ignorance and/or confusion. Supposedly it’s a 4 out of 5 difficulty today.
