I think there is a better article on Hollywood reporter where they did research and investigated on the claims.

Reading the claim they got one of the defendants names wrong in the article. Same for Polygon. Surprised it was not proofed by anyone.

I just compared the Cross Complaint to the article. They actually got the names spelling wrong lol. Same for Polygon. Seems like it might have been copy pasted.

Probably more so in 2004 or 2005.

I think the real issue is the US employees did not feel comfortable. I just looked at Good Smiles adult figures with a little searching Native. If those are the figures they were worried about, it makes sense.

Reading over the cross complaint it seems the employees are suing over a toxic workplace. Feels like the title is misleading.

Man, if this isn’t some virtue signaling bullshit...

In a Forbes article he was quoted: “Someone has to continue 4chan,” he said, adding that “I borrowed money” to make the purchase.

It’s not weird to point out illegal behavior.  That is cause for breaking a contract.

Very excited about this!

From the article Good Smile stated they are a part owner.

What year was that? around 2010? I think I remember 4chan being left wing too.

Reading the claim, they were saying it was a toxic workplace. So makes sense them giving reasons as to why they did not like the company. 

A bit of both. The cross-complaint uses this language:

“famously right-wing and white supremacist website 4chan”

Wait. Hold up. Good Smile/Nendoroid/Figma OWNS AND OPERATES 4CHAN?!
