Part 5/9:
Ryan defends Jay Lee’s integrity, emphasizing Lee's work on Cyber Frog and other projects. He points out that Lee, like many others in the comic industry, has simply taken commissioned work—nothing hateful or malicious about that. The accusation, Ryan argues, is based solely on political bias and a desire to silence dissenters.
Interestingly, Ryan highlights that after falsely labeling Lee as part of a hate group, Tom King later backtracked, claiming he had spoken to Lee and found him to be supportive of all communities and not involved in any hate. Ryan condemns this inconsistency and calls out King's behavior as typical of industry figures who prefer to suppress differing opinions rather than engage with them constructively.
