“I would say almost like the core tension of the 21st century, which is like, we want your deranged fandom, and we want to sell products to you via that fandom. And we have no desire to deal with the psychological and emotional wreckage that comes from that level of worship.” — Ryan Broderick, Panic World

“It made the world feel simpler than it was, even though I think in real life, a Nazi bar does become a Nazi bar. But the other thing that that idea missed is that there's lots of other groups that aren't Nazis that once they get in the bar, it's their bar. Like, if you're like, we have a fun pony show and some guys like to like watch it erotically, it's their bar.” — PJ Vogt, Panic World
