It makes one wonder if changing really mattered to Ezra Miller, considering his history of hiding behind weak excuses and his identity, especially when you compare him to actors like George Reeves, who quit smoking to embody Superman, or Robert Downey Jr., who transformed from a pariah to a good man. If changing truly held significance for Miller, one might question why he didn't take steps to do so years ago.

Great video, Scott! Unfortunately, not all queer people are good people. And like any minority, we are judged by our critics by our worst examples. As someone who has struggled with mental illness for much of my adult life, I know first hand what havoc it can inflict on one's life. But I also know that it should not be used as an excuse to inflict that havoc on other people. I hope that Ezra is actually taking responsibility for their actions and is getting the help they need.

@kyleellis1825 11 месяцев назад

That's the issue. Ezra has taking 0 accountability for any of these actions. Someone does something bad, they shouldn't get to headline a movie like this so if people like th emovie enough, we all just ignore the horrible stuff. You screw up and don't try to atone of your own accord, you aren't better. You just got caught.

Death threats? Really? What is wrong with people... I'm sorry you have to go through that. I think you're great. :D As an anxious introvert I tend to forget how hateful and hurtful some people are. I had even avoided what ever drama Ezra Miller was involved in. I was actually quite glad you made a video as I was honestly very curious as to what he had done differently from stars like Johnny Depp that got recast while he still had his movie. I figured if you did the video, it wouldn't be so bad as your videos are in a more calm and lighthearted tone. Which indeed, it was. Thank you :D

@flyingsnowycats 10 месяцев назад

*what they had done differently Not to be that person, but just want you to know you used the wrong pronoun.

@jewelschan 10 месяцев назад

@@flyingsnowycats Yes, I'm sorry about that. I noticed it after when I reread my comment the day after and felt so horrible and stupid but also... kind of anxiety of editing a comment that people had already liked. After no one had said anything I just figured to leave it alone. ^^; It was just a comment and I figured I should stop stressing out over it. Especially if it was probably going to get buried by other comments and never read again. This was in part that I had started to write the comment before fully watching the video and had only went back and added on/changed things around, once I had finished watching. I didn't know their pronouns before hand. I don't pay attention to celebrities too much to begin with, let alone to know any of them enough to know their pronouns. The other part was that I was quite tired and the little proof reading I did was just focused on my wording making sense and giving the intended message without being too wordy. My brain hadn't clicked that I had used the wrong pronoun. I only realized that the next day when I was more awake. I know it's not an excuse, but this is what happened. And as you can tell by this long explanation, yes, my anxieties really do get to me. ^^; I will try to be more mindful in the future, even if I'm tired.

I'm much more of a lurker than a commenter, but your call to action made me actually write this. Thank you for your work, thank you for gendering Ezra correctly the entire video (I see way too many people way too often misgender them just because they're a bad person, but as you say, you can dislike someone and also respect their identity), and from one non binary/agender bi person to another, you're doing great work, and I hope the negative comments and threats don't get to you too much!

@kyleellis1825 11 месяцев назад

Migendering Ezra often comes from a toxic place. But I have seen the arguement brought up that because the news/Ezra's PR team have used their identity as a shield and not the mental illness as an excuse, that's why some of the youtubers are doing it. Of course a bunch of them are just crappy people using any excuse to do it.

I also believe we can hold the deserving accountable for crimes while still respecting identities. Your journalistic integrity in this video is miles above some of the others I have, sadly, seen. You rock!

@davidodonnell4371 11 месяцев назад

Love Glass Onion. Great mention here. I had no idea that Janelle Monáe was non-binary. After many years of teaching, this is the first semester where I have had students come out as non-binary to me. I will ask them if they know about Monáe next time I see them. I love Glass Onion so frickin much. I now have one more reason to mention it to people. Yay! (Wow, too late here, off to sleep. Just wanted to leave a second positive comment, because I am genuinely miffed to hear that you get negative comments for no good reason. Sending positive energy beams through the interwebs to counteract all that BS. 🌈🦄)

@thepanelbiter9915 11 месяцев назад

If Ezra has problems, I sympathize. But committing a crime, and hurting people, that’s as a straight up bad as it gets. What really sends me off is that WB scrapped an entire Batgirl movie for “being a bad movie”, meanwhile The Flash (starring an alleged creep) keeps trucking on like nothing happened. I almost blame WB more than Ezra.

@thepanelbiter9915 11 месяцев назад

I was in the same boat hoping that all of the Ezra allegations were grossly exaggerated but that just doesn’t seem to be the case. I think Ezra is a bright and wildly talented individual and it’s sad to see them doing these things. Either way no one deserves to be torn apart for their identity. I hope Ezra gets the help they need.

@rowan_like_the_tree 11 месяцев назад

@@woodchuck003 sorry, I think there's been a miscommunication here. I believe your opinion is based on very little, but you will claim completely unsupported things to try to make your argument sound more reasonable. "the world we live in" is not some excuse for your light transphobia. "the world we live in" is one where trans and non binary people (and any marginalised group) are tired of being demonised and antagonised, having all of their actions being warped into something terrible. This leads to the community hoping that when serious allegations are being levied against one of us, we hope it's the constant over exaggeration of all the miniscule things we do wrong, not that this person has actually done some of the monstrous things they said we would do. I know this probably comes off as very "debate me bro" but trust me, that's the last thing I want to do. I'm just a trans person who is exhausted by the misrepresentation of my community, and who understands the hope that maybe Ezra isn't so bad. After all, it's just hope right? It's hope based on years and years of oppression and this time, we were wrong. Many other times, we've been right

Scott, this is the first of your videos I've seen, and as a fellow queer person, it warmed my heart to see you tackle this issue in such a sensitive, compassionate manner. Totally agree that Miller needs to be held accountable, but that doesn't change the disappointment fans feel when the few queer and/or trans entertainers we have turn out to be less than decent humans. I hope you're able to get some rest and take care of yourself after researching and exploring such heavy, triggering material. You seem like a wonderful human, and I'm excited to explore your channel. It was an instant subscribe for me. Have a lovely day. ❤

@frdare 11 месяцев назад

Thank you Scott, I’ve been trying for the longest to articulate the nuance of Ezra Miller’s situation, in these types of spaces (nerd and pop culture spaces) it’s hard to discuss that Ezra has been doing horrible things while still acknowledging they’re treatment (constantly being misgendered both unintentionally but mostly intentionally, as if gender identity is something that’s simply a courtesy and can selectively be respected) it’s really just exposing a lot of underlying transphobia and people are just using Ezra as an excuse to show they’re true feelings towards trans folks (if you claim to respect trans folks but purposefully misgender Ezra, you simply don’t respect trans folks bc that implies you didn’t believe people’s gender identities are genuine if you can turn it on and off) like I hate Caitlyn Jenner, but will still respect her pronouns… bc I respect pronouns, full stop.

@@TreFKennedy it’s not about respecting them, its not about respecting the person, it’s about respecting the concept of pronouns, regardless of the shitty behavior of the person. Same way I won’t misgender a cis person who’s doing fucked up shit, bc it’s not about their gender, it’s about the shit they’ve done. Like fuck Harvey Weinstein or Bill Cosby, so I’ll still say “Yeah HE sucks.” that’s all ill clarify bc I can tell I’ll get several replies like this

@rachelknightonline 11 месяцев назад

When you look at actors who have changed themselves personally to be able to better embody their character; like how George Reeves quit smoking to be Superman or how Robert Downey Jr. went from pariah to good man, and then look at Ezra Miller who’s done nothing but hide behind weak excuses and his identity, it really makes you wonder that if changing really mattered to this guy, could’ve done it years ago

@packman2321 11 месяцев назад

Popping in to leave a nice comment (hopefully this one won't be 1000s of words long :D) I'm always really impressed by how well you handle these topics sensitively and admit the kinds of emotional difficulty and ambiguity these kinds of conversations have, while still being really entertaining. As someone who's a bit tied up in that whole 'Academia and pretending I know stuff' frame, it's always been kind of inspirational. Also you kind of kickstarted me off down the 'comic academia' train with the old Superman and the bomb videos. So half my ability to ramble about 'American Monomyths' and 'Page turn effect' definitely gets it start over on this channel

Honeslty, fuck the Non-Binary representation take. They did not come out as non binary until after they were cast in Batman Vs Superman and Justice League and signed a big contract. Barry Allen isn't Non-Binary in the movie its just a convenient coincidence that we have this representation in the first place.

I love this video that released on June 30th and was a beautiful and thought provoking way to end the month and herald in July. Seriously good video Scott! It's great having a breakdown of the whole Ezra situation. I'm genderfluid and it really sucks that one of the biggest voices who has a gender experience similar to mine is just so not great. Hopefully they get mental help and are also held accountable for all this stuff.

It’s good to hear I’m not alone in being conflicted. I want them to get better and I believe in rehabilitation and second chances, but also they haven’t actually shown that they’re actually working on themselves. They’ve said they were and then went away from the spotlight which could be them working on themselves or it could be them trying to lay low until this passes.
