continued Thatfucker discussion

[anonniemouse]

Since we've been kicked off FFA for the week, please feel free to continue the anon discussion here. Apologies if this is a big flop - I've never made a DW community before!

The rules are vaguely the same as they are over on FFA. Please refrain from being too much of an asshole, making personal attacks, posting identifying information or engaging in transfail.

ETA: If there's information you'd like to see archived (journal/blog posts related to Andy, etc.), please dump it here and link to it from the main post for discussing.

(I am an anon who pointed out various non-religious places you can safely shoot in, that could have more interesting interiors, and I don't get why he would insist on shooting in a mosque if he can go to big city and find some place that would be much easier to get into and way less offensive).

This is what I don't get. Leaving aside how sketchy it is to use an actual place of worship as a set for a photoshoot, why that place of worship? There's nothing about it that just screams GoT to me to begin with.

Actually, after thinking for a bit, I realized that the only answer is that he once again tries to tie together fandom and social issues. Now by trying to appeal to Muslims. I wonder what will be next.

Oh, lol. Well, we already knew that, but more proof is always amusing.

I just hate the feeling that we might have given him a safe way out of a risky situation. On the other hand, he could reach the same conclusion by himself.

NAYRT Confession: I worry sometimes that his whole "mental illness made me do it" thing is partly my fault, because I posted about it and I know he saw my post. I keep thinking I should go read stuff from around that time and prove to myself that it was an excuse he was already using, but I have no idea where to look now that his lj has been deleted.

< Amy Player fauxpology in its original form. This is proof that he was using the "mental illness made me do it" post as early as pre-Thanfiction days.
