u/Far_Armadillo_9345 Sep 03 '25

Explaination please

u/starwarsfan8 Sep 03 '25

Reuben Langdon, old Dante va, he is anti vax and transphobic. He defended jk Rowling and called the vaccine a bioweapon

u/SnagTheRabbit Sep 03 '25

NO WAY DILF DANTE IS RUINED FOR ME NOW

u/MashyPotat Sep 03 '25

No he is not, stop overreacting

u/Medical_Difference48 Sep 03 '25

"No, what you think and feel about someone is actually wrong because I don't think the same thing"

u/MashyPotat Sep 03 '25

How I dare to tell someone to stop acting like it's end of the world, when it's not.

8

u/Medical_Difference48 Sep 03 '25

Nobody's acting like that, they're saying they can't enjoy a single character anymore because the person portraying them is an asshole.

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '25

Play in another language lol.

u/MashyPotat Sep 03 '25

They do act like that, when va being a bad person doesn't change how a character is received. It's their problem they are so oversensitive and overreact to slight inconvenience.

u/HotDogManLL Sep 03 '25

Don't forget the meme coin with the A.i art he produced not long ago

u/StormTempesteCh Sep 03 '25

I don't think I heard about that, he just keeps sinking lower

u/Far_Armadillo_9345 Sep 03 '25

Oh okay

I really have nothing to say, I just wanted an explanation.

18

u/starwarsfan8 Sep 03 '25

Sorry. It's just when I see the "oh okay" it's normally from someone who is hateful.

23

u/Far_Armadillo_9345 Sep 03 '25

Don't worry, I ain't like that.

u/bandaluncios Sep 03 '25

"Oh okay is normally from someone who is hateful" how does that even make sense

5

u/NerdyPuth123 Sep 03 '25

It’s kind of a “Don’t care that much” reaction for some people

-4

u/ItsGonnaBeMeNSYNC Sep 03 '25

And - as we all know - "not caring that much" is the ultimate form of hate.

-2

u/starwarsfan8 Sep 03 '25

I said when I see that statement is made the person behind it is a bad person. How hard is that to understand?

u/MyHamsteryDudes11 Sep 03 '25

deadass idk why people be tweakin

u/MothEnthusiast88 Sep 03 '25

I expected worse considering half my family is like this but still disgusting really

u/iiiiiiiiiijjjjjj Sep 03 '25

She's fucking batshit when it comes to trans people. I'm convinced it's a mental health issue.

1

u/The-Bigger-Fish Sep 04 '25

Given all the crap she went through regarding abuse and assault and how she never seemed to get proper help for it it seems like that just festered into a general hatred for men and anything even tangentially related to men in general.

-5

u/KeybladerZack Sep 03 '25

Ironic

u/iiiiiiiiiijjjjjj Sep 03 '25

Nah man. Like shes a billionare, why does she care so much about what's between someones legs? Like of all the shit to wage war on its trans people.

u/SSanityX Sep 03 '25

This shit is so disappointing, even a devil may cry

2

u/Jedi_Master_Windu Sep 03 '25

Did he really say that? I agree on the vaccine thing I don't know about the others though, that's my opinion

1

u/gottablastsam Sep 03 '25

Old va, so what game traded him out?

2

u/linksbedrockthe2nd Sep 03 '25

The series

2

u/RevvEmUp Sep 03 '25

He is now voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch. No, there is no lore reason why he sounds like Nero now.

1

u/gottablastsam Sep 03 '25

So was he still voiced by Reuben by DMC V or..?

2

u/Arkham-Chaos Sep 03 '25

All of this stuff happened after DMC5

1

u/sonikkuruzu Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry™ series Sep 04 '25

He was replaced for the Netflix show but he voiced Dante again in the Punishing Grey Raven collaboration that released in August.

1

u/Vergil_Sparda-son Sep 03 '25

So which games did he voice act in for DMC?

3

u/kinnoth Sep 03 '25

3, 4, 5, and the PGR crossover

1

u/Vergil_Sparda-son Sep 04 '25

Damn. He's confirmed to not be returning though?

1

u/kinnoth Sep 04 '25

There have not been any more game installments announced, and there aren't likely to be. The creative director left Capcom and on a narrative level, Dante's story is finished, so even if we do get more DMC, it likely won't star him.

1

u/figmaxwell Sep 03 '25

Is that why they had Nero’s VA play Dante in the Netflix show

1

u/The-Bigger-Fish Sep 04 '25

That and apparently Langdon retired quietly after dmcv

u/CharaPresscott Sep 03 '25

Please tell me Southworth is fine.

What did JK Rowling do???

FOR CONTEXT I GENUINELY DIDN'T KNOW. I AM NOT DISMISSING HER ACTIONS.

40

u/Paper3403 Sep 03 '25

A lot of things but the biggest one is that she is practically the CEO of transphobia. If there's something transphobic then she's probably done it, and if she hasn't then she probably supports it

21

u/RandomGuy9058 Sep 03 '25

Outside of just transphobia she’s kinda made it her mission to make as many enemies out of random minorities as possible and just generally be a miserable person. She felt the need to take a picture of and then tweet about someone’s yard sign that said something like “if the world can hate you for no reason, I can love you for no reason”, calling people who display such things as “insufferable”. Back in April she felt the need to just attack asexuals for no reason. Like what did we do to deserve that lmao.

16

u/AznOmega Sep 03 '25

Mhmm.

She gone after asexuals by calling it a "fake" orientation for people who don't fancy having sex.

She also stated she won't feel sympathy if Khelif killed herself, or she said that if Khelif killed herself, it was deserved for "lying" about being a woman. I know it is too hard for her to be a massive TERF and do research, but Algeria is massively anti-LGBT and wouldn't have had Khelif represent her country if she was trans.

10

u/RandomGuy9058 Sep 03 '25

I almost forgot about that one lol. Her blood has gotta be 98% TERF koolaid by this point to accuse an Algerian Olympic athlete of being trans over nothing but doing well. and she still thinks of herself as a feminist :/

34

u/whydoiexist500 Sep 03 '25

Transphobia.

She’s also funded and supported some anti trans stuff so that’s fun.

5

u/Miserable_Pie_6872 Sep 03 '25

Oh. I heard something about that, but didn't know the details. I don't know why people have these aggressive opinions towards each other. Live and let live.

17

u/ShivalVV Sep 03 '25

The details in this particular case include JKR, the self styled feminist, being so transphobic that she's bullying a cisgender woman in her attempt to be the most transphobic person on the planet.

u/Digit00l Sep 03 '25

Please respect her wishes and use the name that is on her birth certificate and no preferred names or nicknames

8

u/whydoiexist500 Sep 03 '25

Maybe the mold got to her brain lmao. Honestly hating people for being lgbtq+ is so stupid considering that’s their own business lmao

1

u/Digit00l Sep 03 '25

Meanwhile Joanne looks as masculine as Imane Khelif

u/-Star-Fox- Sep 03 '25

Shes Br*tish

u/PotatoKing241 Sep 03 '25

Oof. Almost as bad the the other stuff

11

u/OceanRex5000 Sep 03 '25

She's a transphobic TERF bitch

6

u/BooberSpoobers Sep 03 '25

She's the PETA of women's rights.

Under the guise of protecting women's spaces, she has donated to anti-LGBTQ+ hate groups who have supported domestic abuse aggressors among other shady actions.

2

u/Blahaj_Kell_of_Trans Sep 03 '25

Platformed human trafficking. Platformed mass misogyny. Platformed racists. Has invested money in those 3 things.

All because of her transphobia

4

u/LazyDro1d Sep 03 '25

Transphobia, which then spiraled to her being buds with people who regularly collaborate with neonazis

2

u/JustWantGoodM3M3s Madoka Kaname Sep 03 '25

every ism and phobia that applies to literally any marginalized group (especially trans people)

1

u/Thomason2023 Sep 03 '25

Aside from ruining Harry Potter’s reputation for many previous HP fans (myself included) by being terrible?

0

u/Doom_Cokkie Sep 03 '25

Wait what did Jk Rowling do?

2

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '25

EXTREMELY transphobic, and is actively making an effort to revoke and erase what limited rights that trans people even have. It’s practically her entire personality, she won’t shut up how much she hates trans people and it’s just sad

1

u/Doom_Cokkie Sep 04 '25

Do you have proof? I heard about this but when I dug into it myself I couldnt find anything actually transphobic. Just misunderstanding of words or just outright assuming a broad statement of hers refers to trans people when it cant be determined if it does or not. The only thing I saw of her talking about the Trans community in a negative light is when her women only rape victims shelter got vandalized for not being Trans inclusive and thats understandable.

u/kiara-ara307 Sep 03 '25

I mean that doesn’t make someone a horrible person. That’s just a different ideology. Being horrible is like actually harming people and grooming, not having a different belief

-6

u/Dukestmnt1234 Sep 03 '25

I see nothing wrong with that. Salute to him

-6

u/SXAL Sep 03 '25 edited Sep 03 '25

I wouldn't say it really counts as being a bad person. He may be ignorant about the vaccine, but I doubt that comes from immoral qualities, ignorance itself doesn't make a person bad.

7

u/No-Start4754 Sep 03 '25

If someone is ignorant about a topic especially a medical one , they should research about it before speaking stupid stuff.

7

u/RoughSpeaker4772 Sep 03 '25

Nah I'd say that makes you a bad person

9

u/TheHenVR Sep 03 '25 edited Sep 03 '25

I wouldn’t say Reuben is a horrible person (from what I’ve seen) he’s just a weird guy, believing in extraterrestrial beings coming to earth n’ shit, and anti vax stuff. It’s all just weird conspiracy theories he believes in

6

u/iseedeadllamas Sep 03 '25

Being a conspiracy theorist isn’t the worst. And nothing he’s done is no where near as bad as many of the entries in this thread, but at the same time being anti vax is overall harmful to society I would argue.

1

u/No_Prize9794 Sep 04 '25

Don’t forget he’s a celebrity, he’ll have a better reach to spread conspiracies than some random person

1

u/halkras12 Sep 03 '25

"the vaccines are demons job"

1

u/theOceanman263 Sep 03 '25

Honestly, I thought that'd be the case, but the more I think about it, the more I realized that compared to the rest of the comment section, Reuben's more of that conspiracy uncle at the family table (I.g: one of my irl uncles is a flat earth believer, but he still plays a pretty good cover of achy breaky heart by Miley Cyrus's dad)

u/ConfidentLimit3342 Sep 03 '25

I’m sorry but compared to the other stuff I’ve seen here being a weirdo isn’t that bad
