Seriously? Fuck.......
Mind if I ask where? I'm curious so I can add it as a threadmark.
EDIT: Seriously, these kinds of allegations need a source to be certain.

Come on, you can't just post this kind of things without a source
Well I mean, her name is literally Karen so...
Still, a bit of a shame considering I really liked Anna from FE, so yeah, wouldn't mind if Nintendo recast pronto. I don't expect much action on this though but it's still a shame.
(Also, looking at the account of the liked tweet that OP posted, apparently the official Ben and Jerry's twitter account follows that account? That seems kinda odd considering the views this Kristie Alley has. But eh, who knows at this point)

Oh the irony. But honestly, I hope Capcom swaps her out for a trans English VA.

They have before for Byleth, but I'd imagine that any recast they may do in the near future would only impact future variants of Anna.
Correct, we need a source on this before we throw out accusations.
As for the Tweet in the OP, that is just... grotesque. How anyone can be against BLM is just beyond me at this point.
I thought that's what they were playing at too. I had to google why there was even any connection there, but apparently this is why:

I don't think chanting something makes you part of the movement, but it's not like being a part of BLM would erase your other prejudices anyway.
God damn. She played a lot of my favorite characters.
Why do a lot of voice actors have to be shitty?
So she played a trans icon and yet she did this?
Fuck her.

Yo wtf, i never heard about this.

Fuck her.
I really liked her voice for Olivia, Hana, and Anna from FE but ever since she blamed the fires on the west coast on Antifa I've just been unable to enjoy those characters at all

Unless I'm forgetting someone, I think it's mainly her & Reuben for Capcom. But unlike Reuben, Karen doesn't co-own a major mo-cap studio that most of the industry uses regularly, so she should be easy to ditch going forward.
People should know better than to trust that channel for anything valuable.
Sources like that love to turn their opposition into straw. "Member of X did something bad, so X is bad". It's such an obvious nonsense argument yet peeps still fall for it.
To her: please do your research before endorsing anything that was hosted by that dude.

Annnnnd just encountered a massive Persona 4 spoiler looking this up -- fuck this. (If you're planning to play it like me, don't look her name up on Twitter.)
Come to think of it, those quotes do sound familiar, but yeah: that's obviously not representative of BLM as a whole.

Flat out saying they deserve the death penalty too. Sorry for posting some random person's screenshot, I couldn't find Karen's tweet.
It's like saying every dumbfuck chanting "USA" while doing deplorable shit makes me bad because I'm also an American. Garbage logic from Tucker as usual.

I wouldn't be surprised if Karen deleted the tweet, so at least someone got a screenshot of it.

Ugh not like this! I absolutely enjoyed some of her voice work, but to think she being a right wing shithead is absolutely appalling! Gonna have to switch Poison's voice to Japanese. And if she's indeed a TERF, that would be full blow irony!
OP
OP
I already have Ken switched to Japanese, so I'll definitely do the same for Poison. I'm glad that Capcom lets us change the voice language on a per-character basis (take notes, Smash, let me change Ken to Japanese without changing everyone else).
Exactly. Stupid logic trying to criminalize a valid and progressive movement.
She was also Annette Birkin in RE2 remake and Resistance. Not that important but just so people know some of the wider roles she's had lately. Really disappointed in another VA outing themselves as a huge piece of shit though, gonna make some roles like Nanako hard to go back and listen to.
