John Walker Effect

First coined by Twitter user @buggy_con, the John Walker Effect is when in any form of media the writers unintentionally make the antagonist characters

-Far more entertaining
-Far more believable as characters
-More sympathetic

-More heroic than the stale and downright evil protagonists/heroes

Typically you will see the writers project all the things they view as evil onto these characters in order to make a straw man to pit against their oh so perfect protagonists. However, this unintentionally causes these characters to be loved by the audience, for they are the only ones who

-Call out the protagonists' bullshit for what it is
-Have actual ideas and motivations that aren't selfish

These characters often have to be amped up to cartoonish levels of evil in order to try and make the audience root against them.
Rorschach from Watchmen, Tyler Durden from Fight Club, and Colonel Quaritch from Avatar are all examples of villains that suffer from the John Walker Effect.

The Maza Effect

Vox Media "journalist" Carlos Maza recently went on a woke crusade to deplatform comedian Steven Crowder from YouTube.
This in itself failed, but the side effect of this was YouTube updating its policies, which wound up affecting creators across the site. As of now, YouTubers and even journalists are finding their channels demonetized for "offensive content".
This incident is the first example of something louder, dumber, and more devastating than the Streisand Effect - The Maza Effect.
My channel was demonetized due to "offensive content"?
Goddammit, I got hit by the Maza Effect.
