    This article has been imported from chorus.fm for discussion. All of the forum rules still apply.

    According to a post on the band’s Patreon, and their social media accounts being removed, it looks like Anti-Flag have disbanded. I don’t see any other messages from the band and have reached out to their label for comment.

    Not really the kind of thing you drop into the message board on a punk news site without any context, bud

    didn't see this coming!! it feels like i was just listening to their newest album, looked it up, it was a half a year ago, this year is flying by! i can't believe this from someone in AF no less, their whole message is essentially don't be a shitty person like what the fuck?

    Elaborate?

    Obviously I'm horrified and it's fucking disgusting, but how're you not surprised? Came out of nowhere it seems.

    Sigh. So even the ones who preach about a better world are making it a shittier one?

    right? Builds whole career off singing about injustice and being disenfranchised, then (allegedly) disenfranchises someone in one of the worst possible ways (to put it mildly). Makes their entire career bullshit.

    Not trying to ignore the victim here as this shouldn’t be about AF’s legacy and I am glad she had the courage to speak up. The fact that the band disbanded tells me what I need to know about the claim.

    Aaaachem!

    And immediately deleted any place where people could hold them directly accountable, as if they could just disappear and make it go away
     
  21. On the contrary I think that nuking their social media is as clear an admission of guilt as we're likely to get but I don't know. Maybe they'll say something, I'm not holding my breath,

    I think nuking social is less about being held accountable and more about the band distancing themselves from Justin Sane. The band would not respond to posts there and that would probably make the situation worse for members not named Justin Sane, people can vent on reddit/here.
