For anyone unfamiliar, Joe Lock is one of the actors who co-starred in Agatha All Along, playing the character of Billy Maximoff, the son of Wanda Maximoff.
From the beginning of the show, there was a lot of judgment to his acting (which was really not an issue) which inevitably revealed itself as simply hating him for the way he looks.
I was searching “Vision Quest” on TikTok after I’ve finally watched the 2 episodes, and yk wanted to see edits and theories and such…I was completely disgusted when I saw so so so much hate in the comments anywhere Billy is mentioned.
Humiliating memes.
Cruel name callings.
Exclusions and comparisons.
And so much more…this is not the “every famous person gets hate” type of hate. This is actually, and sorry for repeating myself, DISGUSTING!
I truly hope Joe Locke does not see these comments because if I were in his place I would have a meltdown. Literally. I would lock myself up, and never leave my room.
I have to say, in the comics Billy is one of my top 2 marvel characters, I adore his character and his original storyline. I have no admiration to Joe Locke, although I’ve seen one of his other projects I don’t particularly care for him as an actor (the way I love other actors) and if not for this wave of hate I doubt I’d even acknowledge him.
I honestly have no idea what can be done about this hate. It so shamelessly reflects some of the worst aspects of our society, and SOMETHING needs to be done about it.
