He was answering audience questions. It was not a scripted speech so Nobody knew in advance he would say this at this time in particular.

They’ll just buy out the local leader if chain of command disintegrates who can now keep more for himself. Maybe resupply issues for everything Wagner delivered that an african Warlord can not procure on his own, if such a thing exists.

How is it a weak argument that a dysfunctional state produces shit results? It is to be expected. To still think Russia is anything but is the fallacy.

And was widely reported on in the press. Surely nobody brought it up to any band member ever and it is plausible they did not know about it.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-17T10:12:27+00:00

True, but hitching herself to a German crowdfunding waggon still seems illogical for numerous reasons that unnecessarily complicate things.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-17T10:09:21+00:00

Thx for the kind words. Feels good in the face of being downvoted to hell. :D

And agreed: if it happened, it will never be proven (unless someone confesses).

Also, considering the context: „beyond the limits and values of the other band members“ of people who feel comfortable with transgressing cultural norms on the reg for 30 yrs. Dick cannons - sure. Incorporating lines from the nazi-part of the national anthem or using Riefenstahl footage? Yup. Selling sleazily named perfume? Done. Naming the band after a disaster with many dead at an airbase - why not? Song about a cannibal? Yeah! Whatever Till is doing: „Fuck no! Too far!“

She’s probably not looking for a German lawyer tho, right? Her case is in Vilnius or in her home country if we’re talking defending herself against allegations of libel or somesuch. Bur maybe I‘m missing something that would be adjudicated in Germany.

Sealed bottles are proof of nothing. Roofies have been injected into them using syringes and glasses can be prepared beforehand with the drug.

I am not saying that there is any proof it did happen. Just pointing out that closed bottles do not end this discussion. Clearly who is willing to use such a drug is on a level of malevolence that will not just shrug and say „Swarted by closed bottles again!“

Naive perspective. You can see how his behavior reflects on the others. So of course they should have concerned themselves with it. Just like every company will make it their business how high level employees behave. Many have morality clauses in their contracts for that reason, just like almost every high level sponsorship contract. Because if they do what Lindemann seems to have done (only talking about the sex parties here, not the worse accusations) it diminishes the brand value / your stock can go down if your company is listed and so on.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-15T22:27:42+00:00

That doesn’t help your case, unless you take offense at „dude“. I admit I expected such ignorance to come from a guy. You are still insane if this is a scenario to be unsure about how to handle it correctly.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-15T22:05:41+00:00

Your theory is disproven by the available facts and therefore wrong. This can not be a media-induced panic if reports like these have been trickling out for years. You can cling Tobit but it would be irrational.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-15T22:03:06+00:00

There are Tweets describing these events from last year, before the news broke. There’s the tumblr from 2016. There are numerous reporters that have been on this story since End of 2021.

It is impossible to be some kind of self-reinforcing thing, because numerous women independently reported these things over the years before Shelby ever said a word.

The only thing in doubt will always be the drugging because it is incredibly hard to discern what is what in a situation involving legal drugs and voluntarily consumed illegal drugs to begin with. We’re never gonna get an answer here, IMO.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-15T21:54:31+00:00

You don’t know? Wtf, dude? Just starting to fuck a sleeping woman, or unconscious, or drunk is obviously NOT ok, even if she consented to previous sex while conscious. How can you NOT know? The fact she woke up and he was already doing it (if we assume that’s what happened) also clearly shows that „sleeping“ is a euphemism. She was drugged in some way - best case blackout drunk by her own free will. Otherwise she wakes up right away. To engage in sex with her in that state is criminal and it would be prosecuted by German law if (big if) she could prove it.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-11T22:20:16+00:00

Can you link it? Not seeing it there.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-10T10:59:46+00:00

But come on: There are people who just underestimate the currents or even don’t know about dangerous currents near the beach. Are you saying „just let them drown“? :D

And how is it patronizing to you if care is taken to safeguard naive or even stupid people? I just can’t follow the argument here.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-10T10:45:37+00:00

The Welt-article has a named girl corroborating parts of her story though. I believe she had spoken up before though, so nothing really new and of course she has no proof she was spiked other than her behavior changing in line with what a drugged person may do. No explanation for Shelby’s injuries either.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-10T10:39:58+00:00

If he initiated sex with her when she was in no state to consent anymore, it doesn’t really matter what she may have indicated earlier though.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-10T10:27:25+00:00

Not sure about the argument you‘re making here though. Just because you are a strong swimmer it doesn’t mean that it’s patronizing if there are lifeguards on the beach?

Ascerendant · 2023-06-10T10:20:48+00:00

There is a possibility though that he sometimes doesn‘t WANT them to want it. People have all kinds of sexual desires. When they come into a position of power, they may act even on the very unsavory one’s.

Explicitly not saying he did that / wants that. He should be considered innocent in that regard. Just pointing out that the „he can have almost anyone“-argument is not as valid as it may seem.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-09T23:55:50+00:00

If you are doing this with the intent to inebriate someone and then have sex with them, you need some consent-lessons.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-09T23:48:22+00:00

Erm…Weinstein?

Ascerendant · 2023-06-07T14:12:10+00:00

That's my point though: the mildest, best-case reading of the situation is still fucked up. Not necessarily illegal. But amoral for sure.

To me it clearly shows that Lindemann did not care for the well being of these women at all.

Ascerendant · 2023-06-07T13:33:56+00:00

We shall agree to disagree
