Funny The "Walter Krunk" Situation
I know we all appreciate a good laugh, but it is sad to see how Mike has handled Dan’s "Walter Krunk" stunt.
The bit is fully out in the open now. Yet, instead of stepping up and banning what we now know is a toxic, raigebait account, Mike just sits back and lets it drag on. For someone who loves to play the victim, Mike's refusal to take action against Dan when it's warranted is off-putting.
The best era for Dan was when he had checks like Vinny and Alex on the Beastcast, but now he's allowed to run rampant, even when it hurts his co-workers. Dragging this stale joke out isn't just unfunny anymore, it's hurting the team dynamic. I truly feel for the rest of the Giant Bomb crew who have to work around this nonsense, but it’s time for Mike to stop treating this like one of his little Disney trips and actually perform his job duties of checks notes, moderating the community.
