He wrote, “Heads-up: Comicsgate propaganda site Bounding Into Comics has attacked comic pros for opposing racism and fascism.”
He then added, “PUBLISHERS…if Bounding Into Comics is in your PR list, remove them. They routinely invent stories attacking pros who oppose racism and harassment.” (Archive link: http://archive.is/x5Uqs)

President Donald Trump declared that the United States government would soon classify Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.

Attorney General Bill Barr also declared that violence carried out by Antifa during the ongoing riots is domestic terrorism. He stated, “The violence instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly.”
Moore’s targeting of Bounding Into Comics would be echoed by numerous other comic book professionals including fellow comic book writer John Layman.
Layman wrote, “I think the guy who runs it is also some weirdo anime pillow f***er.”

Moore would respond writing, “He’s dumber than his anime pillow girlfriend, anyway. He once wrote a piece accusing me of violating Baltimore assault laws because of comments I made about a con in New York. That I didn’t attend.”

Comic book professionals would try again in October 2018 with Tamra Bonvillain, Dee Cunniffe, and Matt Miner leading the charge encouraging their followers to unfollow and block us. It didn’t work. We are still here, and we have more readers than ever.
More recently a Twitter activist attempted to get his followers to mass report us to Twitter after Bounding Into Comics reported on his comments regarding Orcs and Dungeons & Dragons. His call to mass report us failed. Our Twitter following is as big and as active as it has ever been.
