  1. Aren’t all bandcamp sales today going towards some type of voting rights project?

    this certainly makes sense, you may be getting through to me..... I'm not saying I'll stop listening but its changing the way I'm thinking about the situation.

    Also adding as food for thought : you know who else was a mediator? Sheridan Allen. She mediated the Evan Weiss thing and obviously did a terrible job since it remains unresolved as far as I know.

    I don’t trust Hall either why are you engaging in such bad faith? It’s fucking baffling. Try reading some of my posts.

    I would hope the mediator would be someone that both parties agreed on in this case and they would be more selective this time..

    Look, I'm not asking anyone to take the same hardline stance as me, I'm saying that if they have to take a tentative edge in their neutrality it shouldn't be on the abuser's side.

    While I do think they should have donated to some SA survivors organization, perhaps they also saw value in educating other dudes in bands who think it's okay to do the same shit Evan did and to help musicians who very likely don't have health insurance find therapy and tools to better themselves.

    I'm absolutely not acting in bad faith, you clearly are taking an edge for him? If not, why are you going at the people close to the survivor? Why are you resting your case on the side of the pitchfork article? You clearly have a side here. I've read your posts and they're pretty clear and I'm not the only one who thinks so.

    ohhh this is interesting. So artists don't make anything today anyway?

    Is Josh saying the accusation is a lot worse than we thought, or that he just doesn't support him knowing about the same info as us?

    I see Jake as right in the middle, I don't think hes taking an edge to either side. I think his thoughts and posts on this topic have been helpful and insightful

    I think you're making this discussion about you and let's be clear : no one here is attacking you for you. It's really not about you.

    He's pretty much just saying "I know something you don't know" we have no idea what it is... we know he talked to the victim today and the victim is okay with what he is saying.

    I’ve also read Jake’s posts and I know Jake and he is not taking Evans side. That’s incredibly disingenuous.
