[No Spoilers] Emily Bett Rickards just dragged Marc Guggenheim and I’m loving it

This isn’t about the storylines... or the characters. It’s about a real issue.

I’m no way an Olicity fan... or a Tumblr user, he hasn’t just pissed off a certain part of the shows fan base- he annoyed them all, and clearly the cast too. If he wasn’t gonna be sensitive about the situation- he shouldn’t have said anything.

He has handled the situation wrong- AK was/is a guy he works really close with- and MG went on the offence rather than saying “It’s wrong, and it’s being investigated- I can’t talk about it” he went on the offence and said he wasn’t gonna comment on twitter whilst an investigation was ongoing... but retweeting the comedian was providing an opinion of sorts.

It was a badly timed and worded tweet- and it’s about real problems- making this about the fictional character when it’s a real person who is making the statement is bad... Emily is not Felicity.
