Collins apologists can only use insults, diversion, etc to defend her
It really says a lot about the Collins apologists crowd when their most consistent tactic in making their attacks is to start attacking people.
Here are some of the common insults/tactics they use:
1. Calling people "trolls" and "sock puppets."
2. Dismissing their points offhand with condescension or patronization, telling people they don't know anything, copping a stance of intellectual superiority, etc., playing Grammar Nazi, etc.
3. Using a lot of diversion. Dragging in movies like Gladiator into the discussion that had absolutely NOTHING to do with Hunger Games or Battle Royale or even anything else, for that matter. Or ranting that Battle Royale itself was a ripoff.
4. Shifting their arguments again and again and again. Arguing that she couldn't have heard of Battle Royale, ever, and that she came up with the story herself, but then also arguing at the same time that "there's nothing new under the sun" and that "all authors have their influences." Or saying that she couldn't have heard of Battle Royale because the novel was never published here, but then when you argue that the manga was published here, claiming that it was only read by a small fanatical weabboo fanbase or not widely distributed in stores.
To those who've been trying to make the case that Collins most likely ripped off Battle Royale, don't worry about it when these people start foaming at the mouth with insults or diversions or whatever. All it does is just prove our case. Collins apologists can't defend the indefensible, so their next best thing are insults, flaming, attacks, diversion, etc. It's all they've got, sadly.
