With Apologies to Sena Bryer

[BakoolJaJa]

She's not saying the problem is Imane getting the help she needs, though her wording needs work. Sena is noting Imane is experiencing transphobic attacks (without even being trans) and she'd like for trans women to get the same support when experiencing it.

They are talking about her third tweet that is absolutely dripping in resentment. "But a cute girl who's not trans gets her feelings hurt... and everyone comes rallying to her cause... Same exact shit"

Don't try to cover this up with "poor choice of words." She is doing what she often does, making EVERYTHING about herself. Only HER feelings matter. A cute girl who isn't trans (why is that relevant? That's just as irrelevant as Sena being trans is irrelevant. Something I'd hope all the anti toxicity folks in this forum would agree with, but apparently not.) doesn't deserve people to come her aid. No, no, only Sena does. Nevermind that she has a crowd of rabid supporters on twitter. She'll just ignore those, because otherwise how would she paint herself as the ultimate victim?

The wording in her tweet is everything but respectful or civil. And this is something that is constantly noticed when looking at her Twitter. That's exactly why people assume that she is starting sh*t. Because she keeps on starting conflicts with those tweets, involving people who have nothing to do with whatever issues she is facing.

You need to get your facts straight and not post a part of a conversation to fit your narrative.

Thanks to @Karious, for posting the convo.

Sena is in dire need of a PR representative.

Haven't seen truer words spoken written in weeks, when it comes to this blazing can of trash of a """discussion""".

Did we learn yesterday that bullies use whatever to bully everyone? "She is bad because she is man!!"

Of course not. And I have feeling that miss Bryer wasn't innocent about how terminally-online-anonymous people talk about things, like media, on the internet. It seems to me that she seems to react to it like one type of "people-reacting-to-internet-storm-brewing-around-THEMSELVES" do. There is more than one of those. Types I mean.

Nah Just let Sena yap, it'll bite em sooner or later, actual nightmare if you last years posts about women stepping down from (some of these long time of years) roles because Sena thinks all the characters are trans, when Bridget is a guy, and Yamoto is a female groomed into being the son Kaido never had for his heir, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.

I'm not here to defend Sena, she seems to be not a very good person, but I'm not here to defend the way some people might have treated her.

That said... ArcSys pretty much openly said Bridget is trans. The Yamato situation is just a headache...

Tbf, situation about Bridget was really awful. Ky and Goldlewis just forced Bridget to do that, while character always went against the pressure of his village and proved that he was a guy.

Oof. Not only is she asking for someone to step down from their livelihood for no good reason at all, but someone could easily use the same argument against her: "Wuk isn't trans, so Sena should step down from the role clearly meant for a cis woman."

It's the classic "Rules for thee, not for me".

All I needed to see, the typical argument of: "Nuuuu cis girl getting more attention than me, she doesn't deserve it!!!!! t-t" when you're posting things like this that can make people uncomfortable and make you come off as desperate/petty.

Sena doesn't deserve death threats or any threats for that matter and this community is starting to tilt in the direction of Genshin Impact's community (all we're missing is someone to go there and try to assassinate a member of SE), but I absolutely cannot stand this perspective that some members of the transgender community seem to have towards cis women. It really just puts a bad taste in my mouth and it's a struggle to bring transgender women closer to me as I feel like I might just get attacked for getting more attention if we go out.

It goes without saying that, no matter what your stances are on the VA's performance, the character they played or the story you played, nothing justifies actually attacking the human behind it all. Such actions are beyond vile and can only be considered condemnable. Though I highly doubt people in this forum would stoop so low.

Sadly, the people that think otherwise often feel justified in what they do, so its incredibly hard to get through to them (if they even read the opinions of others regarding that matter.)

[MartinFreeman]

Though the internet has many bad people on it, and I will not doubt that someone did send at least one threat of some kind...let us be honest, I am pretty sure the voice actor did not get a wave of threats as they claimed. Jullie Smollet all over again.
