“The Godzilla Fandom Sucks” Response Video 

One of the consistent criticisms I’ve received about this video is that “not just white men” are the perpetrators of this behavior. And of course, harassment can come from anywhere; any gender, any race, any orientation. However, the United States Sentencing Commission reports that 92.1% of sexual abuse offenders are men, and of that, 51.6% are white. In addition, white men (like me) form the bedrock of the English-speaking Godzilla fandom, and white men, inarguably, have the majority of social clout that allows them to behave this way and get away with it. If someone is behaving poorly, regardless of their identity, it needs to be addressed. But that doesn’t change the systemic problems that we’re facing down every day. If you’ve been assaulted or harassed, I’m deeply sorry that happened to you, and I hope you’re getting the help you need to move forward.

Ugh, I hate that a small, awful minority is always the loudest when it comes to these things. I don't understand why it's so hard for people to get along and not be an ass.

I wish I could say "I'm surprised that people like this exist in our fandom" , but the truth of the matter is that a "fandom" is not some isolated community but a microcosm of society as a whole, just with a shared interest in a specific franchise. We as a community should absolutely be pushing aggressors and evil people like this OUT but it's all for naught if we don't push back on these types OUTSIDE of our fandom. Don't just speak up on transphobia, racism, sexism, and other aggressions in the Godzilla fandom, speak out about it IN GENERAL! None of that has any place in any fandom, and ESPECIALLY in our society as a large. Thanks for speaking up on this, Matt. I applaud your continued support for marginalized groups and communities and I hope this message gets to those that need to hear it the most.

Well this was worse than I expected. I had assumed people were giving her crap about her recent GxK review. People can be absolutely horrible.

That’s not a fandom, that’s a-holes who make fandoms look bad. I’m proud to be part of the true Godzilla fandom who welcomes all. Alyssa should BE welcomed no matter what. Any fan is welcomed. As long as you care about this character or the legacy he left behind. If you don’t care at all for Godzilla or Kong or Gamera and are only trying to spread some hateful little agenda like that one a-hole tried to do with Minus One (I refuse to say his name but it starts with Dr.) You are not welcomed. I wish Alyssa well and hope everything will be ok.

11:00 I’ve experienced a lot of the just overall “really gross and weird part,” like the people who almost fetishize Mothra as their only female perspective in their life and then start treating women in the fandom super weird, it’s so bad. I’m glad a lot of this shit is being brought to attention because by god there are some terrible people in this fandom.

It sucks that Godzilla fandom is starting to become something that lots of other fandoms are like such as Star Wars,marvel ect

Heisei vs monsterverse fanboy war is one of the dumbest things I’ve seen in this community it’s so hilarious how these people rip each other apart over fictional nuclear lizards

I am so happy that this issue is being called out. While I myself haven't witnessed much of this in person, seeing other people's stories does hurt. Nobody, regardless of fandom, deserves to be treated or harassed like that no matter the context, and those that harass or mistreat others ABSOLUTELY deserve to be called out.

Speaking nothing but facts here, we as a fandom have the power to be so much better than this and it's truly unfortunate that these things are happening within the fandom.

Thank you so much for drawing awareness to this, Matt! I appreciate and celebrate the safe space you have created in our community. I added your video to our ongoing playlist to keep this conversation going!

I can't believe people are like this. Godzilla is something that is supposed to bring people together to enjoy kaiju not to make parts of the fandom feel uncomfortable and put them off from enjoying our favorite atomic reptile. like bro just be normal.

Thank you for sharing this, Matt. I hope Alyssa will get better and wishing the best for her and any other fans who are suffering from this disgusting comments/messages. I do hope the fandom will improve and be better to ensure that the Godzilla fandom will be a safe and friendly environment. And not just for the Godzilla fandoms, but as well with other fandoms as well.

I’m happy more of these videos are being made. This stuff needs to be stopped. The huge amount of homophobia and transphobia and racism and stuff i can’t say cuz of youtube guidelines is horrible. It’s worrying too.

While I cannot speak on the rampant sexism (and to a lesser extent the pedophilia, since I've only seen a few instances) in the fandom, the amount of homophobia and transphobia that I have seen on Godzilla communities during my tenure is genuinely mind-boggling. It is present in at LEAST 60% of godzilla fans, likely much more. The same goes with general egotism and self-aggrandizing superiority, which is likely the main reason that Alyssa and those like her are told those kinds of comments, since these people will believe they can get away with ANYTHING, and they often will due to attracting cults of personality. None of these things should be accepted, from individuals whose content we "like" or not. We are better than that, end of story. Anyways, good video!

Jeff Bridges from King Kong '76 here makes yet more valid points and says what needs to be said. I remember first hearing about her issues with creepers when she was like 16 and I've been keeping myself distant from the fan community since. I just simply can't be around those clowns and even when I stepped in to call one of them out, I wasn't taken seriously and was pretty much encouraged to stay the hell away from everything.

Guys don’t be a Hedorah, be an Ultra.

Exactly proud to see you post about this important topic. Having someone who not only is a major player in the fandom but who has actually officially worked with Toho is extremely valuable. Thank you Matt.

oh hey i was literally looking at your art, good job bro!

I recently parted ways with this community, even going so far as to delete a Godzilla fan-film centered channel that a friend and I were operating together. This community is probably the worst community I have ever been apart of. So much terrible things happened to me. From being groomed at 15 by an ex who was 2 years older than I was and being belittled/made fun of by "Well, actually!" type of Godzilla fans; to being hacked, doxxed, harassed, and impersonated by older men at 17; to having been stalked by seemingly multiple people from the Godzilla community for 2 years up until I turned 18; all the way to being accused of being a hacker/doxxer/harasser/stalker by an old friend and it esclating to the point where I lose my job, multiple friends, my discord account, and the FBI showing up at my doorstep (alongside losing a family member). At this point, I see the Godzilla Community as beyond redemption, and I don't want any part of it anymore, and I've chosen to part ways with this community. It's gonna take a long while for me to recover from all of this, but I know that this is the best thing I can do right now. No one deserves to be treated like that, especially the way that Alyssa was treated... I disgusts me that people treated her the way she did. I'm happy that she has recovered and is in a better place now. I'm proud of her for standing her ground, severing ties, and doing her own things like fantasy books! She's strong and brave for doing so, I sure wish I did that sooner. Thank you for bringing this up to the public and making this known. You really are a great guy for that. I wish you nothing but the best in your future endeavors. :)

These kinds of behaviors towards our fellow G-fans will not be tolerated. This is not what the Godzilla fandom is about nor should ever be about. Every g-fan, regardless of age, gender, color, sexuality, etc. should be treated with respect and kindness. Im so sorry for the g-fans who are forced to go through this needless ordeal and I hope for the best for all of them. My prayers are with them. Im looking forward to this year's G-Fest and looking forward to meeting some of you and looking forward to make new friends and have fun celebrating the 70th anniversary of Godzilla. Thank you and much love and care to you all.

Thank you for having the courage to speak out bro! I have always tried to be a good role model whenever I'm at Gfest, the behavior of people when I'm not looking really disgusts me. I've seen enough flame wars, vitrolic puke and other despicable conduct from the trolls to make me wanna skreeonk as loud as Godzilla. Every place where I have a social media presence, I strive to make it a safe haven for people from whatever community they come from. This is especially the case for Godzilla fans too.

Thank you for this video. Hoping that others don’t make it difficult for other people and instead make the community better as it needs to be. Excited to see you at G-Fest!

"Mark's Godzilla Page", "Barry's Temple of Godzilla", "Monster Zero Forums"..........now those are names I have not heard in an age......

I hope that the Gfans that were affected by these terrible people are doing alright as they need all the love and support they can get.

I really do miss the golden days of this fandom pre 2014 those were the days now it’s just absolutely disgusting.

It really does. I'm in my 30s and have grown up on G but until 2020 most people gave little care to it

Matt Frank swinging in with some unfiltered FACTS.

I’m glad that this is getting more attention. This needs to stop

Okay, big whoop we got MeToo exposure and Social Stigma arise in the Kaiju community; this isn't some new phenomenon, with no doubt, hasn't complained before. It's disgusting, however, for people to mix up/label the poor actions of others onto a group. _Jojo's Bizarre Adventure_ is heavily tarnished by its toxic fandom as well as Star Wars or Jurassic Park is with their own. These communities aren't perfect and do invite their dangers. Nonetheless, people do their diligence to enjoy the creator's work and form relationships along the way and it's the responsibility of people (the fans/creator) to watch out what they post beyond their exposure. In essence, they should expect the expected; no matter severe. The Tokusatsu community did not hurt Alyssa or these other people--they chose to abandon it because of one person.

sadly it isn't the fandom, but the internet. scumbags like this flood the internet.

I’m sorry we disappointed you Matt. And I apologize to Ishirō Honda that a franchise he made to unite the world and show human unity, is now such a toxic and harmful place.

Absolutely disgusting this sort of thing happened. I think the tragic fact certain people get this kind of treatment disproportionately. If someone like me, a straight white guy from a largely western nation, doesn't typically experience this kind of harassment, exclusivity, and judgements; they might not believe someone who did. Or they might not think it is as bad as it was made out to me. Or, God forbid, they deliberately ignored their cries. I used to be a hands-off person, but experience and listening is the best teacher. I make a point to not be a bystander when horrid shit happens; and the only way the majority can help those harmed by the minority is to shape up, listen up, and act up. To ignore a problem is to be an enabler. I have been sexually harassed. And *I* cannot imagine the experience of women who have. Or of those who are victims of bigotry of any form. But I can listen to those victimized or afflicted. The number of supposed false accusations in any medium will be *drastically* outnumbered by genuine cases. So if you see something happening, or have good word and proof something is happening; do *not* be a bystander.

Holy shit, I was not expecting a reaction video to that vid, let alone from one of the best damn artists in the community

Stuff like this is sickening. I wish people remember the bad old days of the late 80s and early 90s. When we were all alone and Toho more often than not would tend to be exceptionally ruthless.

As far as I'm concerned, anyone who uses their fandom as a pathway to harass, demean, or otherwise attack others for any reason deserves to be named and shamed by the upstanding members of their fandom. I'm a straight mostly-white dude, so I've been fortunate enough to avoid the overwhelming majority of this disgusting behavior, but I've seen so much terrible behavior in almost every community I've been in and it gets exhaustion just being on the sidelines, trying to stick up for what's right when I see these bad elements. I can't imagine how hard it is to bear the brunt of it.

I always knew Matt Frank was my favorite Godzilla artist. Also, yeah, as someone who’s mainly in the powerscaling side of the community, there is a lot of homophobia and misogny about. This june was hell just being a Godzilla Fan who’s bisexual, constant bigotry being needlessly brought into conversations, it’s stupid.

The toxic side of the fandom has enough radiation to power up Godzilla tbh

i wish more people would have come to me during g-fest when i ran the artist alley . i would have dealt with them then and there . of the 2 occasions that someone did say something it was after g-fest . the problem people were both banned from artist alley and staff was informed . neither returned .

The good thing about me is that I don’t follow much of the Godzilla fandom since I’m a member of a lot fandoms and communities but I don’t do a lot of interactions. I wanted to go to Godzilla-Fest this year but unfortunately I’m going on a cross country road trip with brother that weekend. So hopefully next year

She's one of my favorite godzilla youtubers. I'm sorry to hear she had to deal with this

Fandoms in general have this issue. Terrible people who just happen to be Godzilla fans.

Another problem is that children are a majority of Godzilla fans and the whole point of a fandom is to connect with people who have a similar interest which is something a lot of children want to do. And these disgusting people in the community are going to leave a terrible impact on them. And not just them but every other person in the community. I hope someday this community will become safer because that’s what any fandom should be. Everyone should be welcomed and respected because a fandom isn’t just a certain group of people but rather a slice of people from different cultures, backgrounds, and more differences that should be respected. Thank you for sharing this to a wider audience as this problem has been growing for a while.

Needless to say, as much as this is rightfully about the victims and not Frank here themselves, my already great respect for Matt Frank has increased even more with this. If you need a good example of someone being a good ally to help those who get targeted folks, this is what that looks like.

The GOAT is speaking‼‼Silence🔥🗣❌

I’m speaking as a lesbian woman who also has an odd relationship with gender (in short, an LGBT+ mess of sorts): These sorts of issues are so much more prevalent than most realized, as stated here. As for myself, regarding my identity, I’ve been patronized for displaying interest (as in “woahHhh, a woman liking a masculine thing!?!?!”), I’ve had men many years my senior try to reach out to me, I’ve had men try to pursue online relationships of sorts with me (as if this isn’t creepy enough) despite me visibly noting that I’m a lesbian, and I’ve been harassed for any pride artwork I’ve done. It sucks for me to deal with, for sure, but that’s only because I had the misfortune of dealing with issues such as this, as well as worse (such as grooming), in a similar-ish fandom whenever I was younger. I recognize a lot of people didn’t deal with that in some of their most formative years, and I’m beyond glad to hear that; however, I know it, very understandably, tends to affect them more than it would someone like me… For any woman or minority who’s dealt with these sorts of issues, I’m so sorry to hear that, and you’re valid in any discomfort and pain you may feel. If you are one of the individuals I’m addressing with this, and if you ever need someone to talk to, I’m open; my username is the same on both Instagram and Twitter. I’m wishing all of you out there the very best, and please stay safe.

I’m glad somebody like you has brought it up. You make some of my favorite pieces of Goji media ever and to hear you actually stand up for the people in this group who are suffering is so cool.

When it comes to this kind of conversation, everyone always says "Oh that's just how fandoms are, let it go!" or "You're overreacting" or the hundreds of other disgusting drivel people say to ignore the matter at hand. People would rather be silent and complacent all for the sake of something like comfortability instead of doing the right thing and speaking up. Indeed that's how fandoms are, but do they have to be that way? No. No, they do not. We can and *should* choose to be better and speak up when shitty people do shitty things. Also, wanted to quickly thank you for speaking up on this Matt! Not many people with your platform would and its awesome to see you using it to spread awareness

I'm coming back to G-Fest again this year. I look forward to meeting you.

As someone who is somewhat part of this fandom. This is a major W

its sad to hear that this is going on, everyone should feel welcomed and not worry about being harassed or judged and just enjoy being a Godzilla fan. you also took the words about the star wars fandom right out of my mouth its sad to see two of my favorite fandoms have similar issues. i plan on returning to g fest next year i havent gone since 2018 (my favorite year out of the three times in a row ive gone.) i always have a blast.

I love Godzilla but I hate the fandom

Looks like kaijukim and Goji Guy’s vids on this have been having an effect

Good to see you throw your hat into the ring on this!

I’m very glad that this issue is finally being brought to light when people would rather turn a blind eye. I’ve gotten my fair share of harassment from angry commenters when I post Kaiju Pride art or anything even suggesting things LGBTQ, particularly from Instagram. I haven’t had it as bad as some, but it’s indicative of a larger issue that bigotry has just been allowed to run rampant in this fandom without any rallying attempts to squash it out. I shouldn’t have to deal with people telling me that my art is an abomination, and no one should have to deal with any of the other far worse bullshit getting thrown at them. Especially the sexual harassment. We as a community must do better if we hope to make it a welcoming environment. Thank you and everyone else for the videos.

Youre so goddamn real for this, man. I wish Alyssa the best. She deserved better than what some folk had treated her. Had many a good conversation with her in the past.

thank you for making a video about this as well and being more awareness to this kind of thing within the fandom. glad that you stand in solidarity with us women within the fandom and that you agree this kind of shitty behavior from certain members of the community is not acceptable.

Matt, thank you so much for bringing this issue to the limelight. Behaviors like this have no place in the Godzilla community and they won’t be tolerated. Anyone and everyone in this fandom should be respected no matter who they are. No matter who you are, where you come from, What your opinion on XYZ is or whatever, Godzilla is awesome and he’s something that can bring people together. To anyone reading this who has been treated like dirt by others in this space: Don’t listen to them and keep going strong

It's so upsetting that we have to have 3 videos about this. The Godzilla fandom has been consistently growing and though it's far smaller than some of the bigger fandoms out there like Star Wars, DC/Marvel etc. The community is small enough to be able to oust misogyny, racism and trans/homophobia and I hope we keep it that way. We should NOT be needing to have discussions about having to protect minorities in our community from a small but loud subgroup of people behaving like man-babies because a woman, POC or LGBQT is part of the fandom. Thanks for providing a safe space to the fandom Matt.

Can we like maybe just maybe permanently silence those "fans" from the internet?

On that, I agree with you. The Fandoms are pointless. It’s all about them talking about how some characters solo some multiverses, always keep complaining about things for no reason. Good thing I'm not part of the fandom stuff. I rather be a non member of fandoms. Also, Names Robzilla. Fan of Godzillas. I REALLY love your artworks about Godzilla, and my favorite Godzilla comic Godzilla: Rulers of Earth! Keep up the good work, sir! 👍

Fandoms are not my thing, I prefer enjoying my personal hobbies without a giant group of angry weirdos.

When it comes to the way some fans treat kaiju, these problems with sexism come through. The instant sexualisation of Shimo when her sex was revealed is a shocking example of this.

Fandom’s are never safe from toxicity, opinion bashing, and bad people but their is hope that the Godzilla fandom can be better and improve

I hate hearing about the toxic bad and worse sides of this fandom. One of the worst traits or people in this fandom is (in my opinion), are the ones who are overpossessive about the toys, bias and entitled fans, and the obnoxious trolls who like to start a mess over nothing. As a fan of this franchise since I was young, I hate hearing crap about this and I deal with it almost monthly and my several Godzilla/Kaiju FB groups. Thank you for your love support of our vulnerable community friends, and being an awesome person big fan of your work keep being awesome!!

Couldn't have said it better Matt. You're the best.

How the hell did those horrible people get into this damn fandom?

Thank you Matt for making a safe space for our fandom

Thank you for making this video Matt.

Dude, don’t let any toxic idiots hold you down and keep up your awesome art (Btw I think Godzilla Neo is awesome)

Advice I have for everyone is whenever you're feeling angry, upset, scared, etc, and need someone to talk to but no one there is trying to imagine someone you admire is in the room with you and imagine yourself talking to them. For me I imagine myself talking to Ahsoka from Clone Wars. She is my childhood hero, and imagining what she would say and do to help me with problems helps me learn to calm myself down and to think critically about my situations. May Jesus Protect you and #ISupportWomen’sRights. And remember, you are never alone.

Well said dude. Couldn't agree more esp now.

Matt, you’re absolutely right. We’ve “internet known” each other since the early 2000s, and we’ve always treated others as we want to be treated. If anyone has any questions or problems, they can come find ME! 😊

*WHAT THE HECK??* I missed this... and now I'm sad.

I posted trans pride art for my FanGojiverse a few days ago, and I was worried about some of the sucky people in the fandom finding it so I didn’t even tag it with the main Godzilla tag. I shouldn’t have to do that.

I agree with most of the points in this video I’ve been a Godzilla fan since 2003 when I was 3 years old and return of Godzilla popped up on my TV and I was instantly hooked and it does sadden me greatly with how the fandom has become I have encountered the most toxicity from the new fans joining the fandom not the old nearly as much but the main thing I have to disagree with in this video is only pointing out straight white men I’ve dealt with people of all sexes and races making horrible remarks and more don’t narrow the target to a small section yes there are toxic straight white men but they’re just a small percentage of the bigger issue which can be anyone I’m making this comment cause this could force good straight white men to feel uncomfortable or alienated cause they are the only people being seen as bad

The Dead by Daylight music in the background 😭

I am a member of: Godzilla fandom Kpop fandom Jpop fandom Comics fandom All to a very intense degree. However, im something of an armchair fan because i choose to stay away from any large functions. Im shocked to discover there are such a high degree of people out there that can't control their lust and/or deviancy at these events. Love your G comics, btw

The people making the videos, were just around the wrong part of the fandom, we don't even consider them part of the fandom

As someone who isn’t too involved with the fanbase yet is a big fan of Godzilla nonetheless, I’m so glad they spoke up. People like me and many other Godzilla fans would have no idea unless someone speaks up. This fandom is for everyone and I know those disgusting people don’t represent us. It was awhile ago but my older cousin once went to a anime cosplay convention, she was underage and as you can imagine some older guys were being creepy to her. Thankfully she had someone notice this and got her out of that situation. I hope if anyone who reads this that are going to Gfest (or any gathering in fact), if you see anyone who even seems like they are in an uncomfortable situation, please BE that person that helps them out. You don’t need to be too subtle about it if you aren’t that social you can just go up to them and be like “hey, are you doing alright?” Or if you’re with friends you could just tell them “Hey guys, that person over there doesn’t seem like they’re doing too well, let’s go help them out.”

The fandom is just as toxic as Power Rangers, and most of them haven't watched the Original Japanese material. They didn't even admit that PR was made on the cheap, and it won't be claimed as "famous".

Thank you for talking about this Matt

I stopped going to G-Fest for a number of different reasons, mainly things that were said on Twitter during the beginning of the pandemic. I've seen and heard a number of problematic things at G-Fest that I've never seen at other conventions. I'm thankful for people like you that welcome everyone. I too do my best to be like that. I've been told by a handful of people that they wished I'd go to G-Fest, mainly because I, and the rest of The Kaiju Brotherhood, accepted them and made them feel welcomed when others didn't. I've been going to Japan and having a great time with that and Godzilla Fest but I do miss seeing my friends at G-Fest, just not the negativity that some people bring, and maybe I'm what to some individuals too but I am just trying to protect my peace by not associating with those individuals.

It’s always the small amount of people that makes the community look bad, its crazy

Speaking as a straight white dude, it breaks my heart to see this behavior in our fandom. Like you said, this is the internet and this behavior has existed from the beginning but I never wanted to see it in our community. This behavior, harassing others for ANY reason, is just unacceptable. I grew up being the only person I knew who liked Godzilla, so I just can't comprehend why anyone would harass a fellow fan for any reason. I agree, we should all step up and watch for this kind of behavior. If we see it, call it out and help to put a stop to it. No one should have to go through any sort of harassment or stalking. No one should feel uncomfortable while sharing their love for Godzilla.

I love Godzilla and love to share Godzilla with everyone! When a fandom starts to become toxic, that is a negative reflection of us all. We need to do better and welcome everyone, without that Godzilla as a franchise will never grow.

You're my hero, dude

Let's call the gross stuff what it is, predatory behavior and disrespectful misogyny.

How shameful. Bad behavior deserves to be called out. I saw those videos and I feel bad for the young woman who experienced that. I'll be my part. Take care, brother.

Oh......hell.......YES!!!!!! God bless you, young man for speaking up. I have been a major Godzilla fan since around the early 80s probably, but an even more hardcore fan of Doctor Who since the 70s. Do you have ANY idea how the bigots have come out from under their rocks over the most recent DW series? As a an indian (Aniyunwiya/Cherokee) man, I cannot tolerate a bully or a bigot. It does my heart so much good to see someone (especially a white man) speak up bravely, as you have, for marginalized people. May Unetlanuhi bless you abundantly!

All I’ve gotta say is thank you.

2:26 😂 mood

You’re the best, Frank

Thanks, Matt. completely agree with what you said ty.

I have had a few trolls, but that's it. Most have been great. Disturbing to hear what's been going on with some others.

This is just a shame. I guess I'm kind of blind to this because I don't do social media (don't even have a smart phone) except watching YT videos (and even then I only skim the comments if at all). I just thought Alyssa was a on a long break after moving from Japan. Sorry to hear otherwise. I know I have friends at GFest who have very different politics and views than mine and I still enjoy catching up with them.

From what I have see, they're not fans or just regular enjoyers of Godzilla, they are outsideers that want to join just to cause chaos and change people to think like them. Just like Warhammer, MtG, D&D, Star Wars, Star Trek and many more have fackers hiding and waiting to ruin fun for everyone because "Why should you have fun" mentally is usually what is going in their head, they want attention that that's all they want. Since -1 came out in December of last year I can definitely say they're a lot of faker's trying to hate others for not liking one version of Goji, when in reality we really don't care he's a character or better yet an Actor. He fills a roll that is need for the movie he's in. By that knowledge these "fans" will try to make garbage up to start a flame war and use it for attention and artificially make themselves known better in the wider public. It's all for attention and that's that. Sorry I can't explain why any better bug this is what i got from the chaos.

Good on ya for taking a stand.

I agree, am thinking about leaving the online fandom. I will be a fan of this franchise and still will watch the RU-vidrs I like. I am a smaller Godzilla youtuber and each time I speak out against anything horrible I see there is always a select few people that will fight me to the death over how I am wrong and the fandom is actually fine. A lot of this exploded with the release of gxk and the toho purists vs Mv purists “war”. Nowadays no one here can have an opinion or they will be attacked by people.

It feels like in more recent years, the toxic side of the Godzilla fandom has grown louder and more promoinent. Either its because I notice more of it as I grow older, or it's because some members have started to show a more harmful mindset. If you're the type of person to harrase or be a jerk to anyone for no reason, then I don't consider you part of this community, nor should you be allowed to be part of it. Godzilla has been a important part of peoples' lives since childhood, and we shouldn't allow spiteful and vile people like that ruin what should be a source of comfort to us. If anyone has to deal with that, I'll do my best to support them through it, despite my social anxiety and stuff.
