    She picked the right moment to come out with this. I mean, keeping this in for 2 whole years while being under the impression that you’re under some NDA, you can only imagine how stressful she must’ve felt.

    I feel really sorry for her and I wish her the best. She’s a really cool person.

      That’s usually how these things work. People see others speaking out against someone, and that gives them the courage that they’ll be heard.

      It also helps that the current news only does to back up her claims and increase the perceived validity.

        It’s sad people have to wait for these opportunities to come, if at all. Otherwise people would dismiss them as a liar or disgruntled employee. There are too many sycophants even now that will back Linus no matter what.

          I think the LMG stans are super weird. People who pay for their premium floatplane stuff and pay just to be able to chat with others who pay

          It’s all very weird to me.

          I assume most of those people will stay behind and create an echo chamber of Linus simping for him to view.

            I was a floatplane subscriber for quite a while. All of this stuff over the past week has made me rethink it all and I just can’t support it. Unsubscribed.

      You really had me in the first half there.

      I feared you’d continue with “how convenient for her to get attention now”, like people (especially women) are treated when they come out about abuse.

      Thank you for being empathetic

        It’s best not to assume the worst of people right away, especially those that you do not know personally. This happens too often on the internet and by extension, in real life. It can be hard to do that, I know, but the more people that do it, the better it is for everyone.

        It would have been, but she’s apparently been posting about this for a while, only for it to come to light relatively organically.

      Madison has been talking about this for awhile now. Dig up old tweets and posts and she’s definitely mentioned sexual harassment since she left LTT. No one paid attention until now.

        Yep, she even said as much in here. People kept asking her about this and only now she gets the attentions that she deserves. It absolutely sucks.
