A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Well... He did more than that...
He also would join up with one of the male writers (who eventually got fired for sexual harassment stuff) specifically to team up against the female writers.
He was also extremely disrespectful of all of the female members of the crew. It got so bad he was fired from the Witcher AND the DCU movies.
Like yes... He cared a lot about the source material and so he fought for it... But the only people he fought were women and the only people he became friends with were sexually harassing women.
Edit: I'd seen this all multiple places before but doing a quick search here is a source on the most recent round of Netflix and superman stuff

Personally I think a lot of this is overblown. Specifically the not wanting shirtless scenes and stuff is a personal thing that's up to the comfort of the actor. The bits I don't like are harassing women and his previous comments about the MeToo movement which make me far more likely to believe the current accusations against him.
Edit 2:
Not to mention the show was supposed to be a different story from the books AND game which are vastly different already (which no one seems to comprehend when talking about this topic) he got fans and everyone else to capitulate his demands to show runners that it meet source material. How is a unique story supposed to meet source material…?
The guy is delusional and it’s cost him roles, yet his rabid fanbase defends him relentlessly since they refuse to educate themselves on anything he spews.
How was it a unique story, when everything happens in the books? The head writer and producers just tried, and failed, to be better than the original by adding useless confusion and killing important characters. The games are different in that they play after the books and extend the world.
I asked you in another comment and you ignored me, but what’s the same between the books and show? The skeleton is the same, but most characters, events and places are different.
Why the obvious lie? You just expecting sympathy from other people who haven’t read the source materials and assume they all tell the same thing? When the don’t.
I didn't ignore you I just don't spend all time in the app. I got no commitment to reply in any predefined timeframe. As I said I stopped watching in season 2. Up to that point everything is the same. Except the story of ciri and the forest is moved to a later point, I believe in the books it's before the fall of cintra. It is not a different story just because you change outfits.
