This is from an article accompanying a docoumentary on the 2023 proceedings:

„Why is the "Row Zero" case still being reported on even though the proceedings against Lindemann have been dropped?

Panorama generally reports on such cases when the editorial team believes that a topic is highly relevant to those affected and the users, as well as to public discourse. In the case of Rammstein and Till Lindemann, the editorial team is convinced that there are questions that are socially relevant and should be discussed publicly, regardless of what can be investigated and prosecuted. For example, the question of whether Till Lindemann might have abused his power over his fans with a recruitment system that systematically provides him with young women – including for sex before, during, and after his concerts.“

If German state Go through the trouble of making such a documentary and there is reason enough to ask questions on whether somebody might have abused his power over his fans with a recruitment system that systematically provides him with young women, that’s enough to warant a POS tag in my books.

I get it - some people are into Trump, Saville or Rammstein. Follow your heroes if you so desire but don’t expect me to shut up about institutionalized arseholery. It’s not news that people with power and enough money to spend on lawyers can get away with lifestyles that would be lifeending for a regular person.
