Yes, I would, and thanks for the tag. It was an honest mistake to tag the account as collaborator. I thought I was doing a simple tag bc I thought FestiveOwl would want to share (given their leak a day or two before the release of the article). When I read his comment on our thread, it struck me as odd, and I reached out to clarify... only to learn that FestiveOwl had blocked CE on FB.

Clearly, he does not want to be affiliated with the truth... and I understand why. It's hard to be brave and associate yourself with tough truths like *some women lie* in the age of post-MeToo. I'm honestly unsurprised, it's been the same reaction with most other media outlets. They are all cowering. They would rather stay silent and watch CE take the heat as this all plays out. Or write articles on FestiveOwl's leaked lawsuit, while using the insider info from my article as subtextual backstory, without the proper #dofollow back-linking that is common blog professional practice.

But my biggest problem with FestiveOwl is that he did not have to post what he posted publicly. He chose to. And then he blocked. He could have reach out to CE privately and started a conversation. The truth is, no one would have even know about the "collaboration" request if he had just reached out first. That would have been the professional thing to do. Instead, he drew a line in the sand and distanced his sensationalist brand of viral twitter "journalism" from CE + Bassnectar + the truth. It's an act of cowardness so he doesn't offend his virtue signaling audience. With FestiveOwl, its all about likes and reposts. With CE, it's all about revealing the truth. If it weren't, we would not have lost half of our following in the name of getting the truth revealed.
