Actually no. It's me acknowledging one situation is not like the other. First of all, the company is a large part his, and he is the brand. He can't damage his brand unless he is being blatantly sexist or racist, which he has never been to my knowledge. Price, on the other hand, made public assumptions that someone who also represents the brand is a sexist and put him on blast as such. Being a grumpy and unpleasant individual is not the same as being a gender-baiting misandrist.

 

I don't think her image would have been conducive to Disney. Maybe if the comment she made was a little more vague, but it was too obvious to argue.

 

Now let me ask you this: do you think she would have apologized if given that opportunity? Or do you think, given her actions surrounding all of this, she would have played a victim card and gone to the shill media with a sob story?

 

And you can't conflate every negative thing said online with things like bigotry.

No clue if she would have apologize but since she never got the opportunity we will never know.  Maybe a colleague would have explained to her that her behavior was really unacceptable no matter the mood she was in when she started to who BS.  In the end, it's really not worth it to interact with your customers and fans to much unless as you all say you own your own business.  The reason i say this is because for every 1 decent person you have 2 that will be an ass.  Some people can deal with it and some cannot.  Some get triggered by any little thing and this woman definitely is in that same boat.  

The crazy thing is, this woman has been this way for a long time and she has gone off on people on her twitter account before.  She has 10K followers so its not like her personally is something new or different.  If anything, people subscribe to this woman for exactly how she act.  Even after this event I notice she still have a huge following.  While this seems to be a case where outside people got riled up on reddit for her actions, it appears to be the norm and who she is.  Meaning if you follow and listen to this woman you get what you pay for.

The guy she went off on was huge fan of hers. That is the ironic thing about it. He was on his stream a few days before this happened singing her praises. She eviscerated a fan.
