What do you mean by "violated by DC comics"?

Edit: The #withinthatinch hashtag is just something you posted 2 days ago, nobody else has ever mentioned it, and your twitter account bio has a paypal link on it. Sounds like you're trying to drum up some controversy to make some cash. Real skeezy.

Also, her Reddit account is only 2 days old and somehow this post showed up magically at the very top of my feed 2 minutes after being posted with zero comments.

Any sort of violation: plagiarism, misappropriation, whistleblower retaliation, workplace discrimination, unpaid time, sexual harassment, etc.

This specific movement is for anyone who's experienced "violation" from DC Comics.

You can't really call it a 'movement' if you're the only one involved. And, if you have real, tangible concerns about those things, you should consult a lawyer rather than complain on reddit, because they're all illegal.

Well, your thread got dumped, but I am curious now... What happened with DC that inspired you to start this?

In 2019, I was misappropriated by G. Willow Wilson and Nick Robles for 'The Dreaming: Waking Hours' by DC Comics. (part of The Sandman Universe.) In response, I've started a movement for anyone who's ever experienced a violation of their own. We've reached a time in our society where corporate giants, famous, privileged, or powerful individuals must face accountability for their actions.

> I was misappropriated

You should really be more specific with what you're talking about. "Misappropriate" is just a synonym for "steal". So you're saying DC Comics stole...you? Did they kidnap you as part of making the comic?

Right on. Hope you can get some traction.

How does one get violated by DC Comics?

Like, I'm not trying to be a smart ass here. Legitimately don't know how DC Comics violates people - at least any more than any other big corporation does.

I assume you would have to roll up one of the comics...

Tried researching this and I can only find a twitter account with 1 post and 1 follower?

Yes, I have a question:

Is this a joke?

It's gotta be a joke or a scam attempt. OP hasn't answered anyone's questions.

No, I'm just from Chicago and was wearing a hat.

#withinthatinch is a social justice movement for anybody who's been violated by DC Comics. Actors, writers, illustrators, letterers, victims of plagiarism, employees, etc. Anyone who needs awareness of their situation--this is for them.

Hey Vada! What is your opinion on inheritance tax?

My name is vada, using the schwa was an artistic move (irony), as well as a nod to the Hindu Vedas.
