Wouldn't it be very funny if all the screaming about "SJW destroying my favourite stories" was based on a fake?

The last few years on the internet really changed my perception of hell and purgatory. It's probably a place where you can only communicate and express yourself through social media, with thousands of trolls intentionally misunderstanding each of your posts and spreading erroneous rumors about you.

Even if that were the case, Lauren would be to blame. If the first casting call leak was fake, she could have shot it down and extinguished the fires of controversy quite quickly, but instead she chose to say that she wouldn't comment on casting rumors. And if she had signed an NDA preventing her from commenting on casting rumors, then Netflix was to blame for not shooting down the rumor themselves. 

I don't know, that sounds like victim blaming. Maybe both rumors are true and they padling back or the second rumor isn't true and ciri is going to be bame, maybe they don't give a shit about angry internet nerds or they used it as free publicity. We just don't know.

A bunch of people lost their shit about a rumor nobody knew if it was true or not. Why not just wait and see until we have something concrete like an official press release.
For example:
"Netflix hires Colin Kaepernick to play Ciri in their upcoming Witcher TV-series
the director says: "Colin is a perfect fit for the role. When he kneels, he's exactly as tall as Ciri is in the first book.""
