User blog comment:Jkphantom9/Shane Newville: "An Open Letter to All Who Treasured Monty Oum"/@comment-24122714-20160513015745

We are an entire goddamn community. People tell themselves that they can't do shit, and if everybody says it then nobody can do anything, then the people who are trying to do something are labeled crazy and are told to give up because everyone else gave up. Divide and conquer. The government uses it, and so do companies. It works ALL THE FUCKING TIME. Because our generation have been brainwashed into thinking that they're alone and that nobody is helping us, even when we know that there are. You're tricked into thinking that you have something to lose, but in reality the companies are the ones who will lose. Yeah, you'll probably lose RWBY, but things tend to work out in the long run. Who knows? Maybe we can petition for Shane to take over RWBY or to even pass ownership to him. But if we don't do anything, then one things for sure, RWBY is going to exist solely to gain profit, rather than be a work of art like it's supposed to.

RWBY isn't the only anime on earth, it may be what Monty created, but if this continues, the only part Monty will have in RWBY is the signature on his memorial that plays in the credits.
