To your Cawthon point, because he hid it and it was discovered, I can't help but to give you a resounding "... and?". If it was discovered that John Stewart (the paragon of Liberal thoughts and do-goodery) gave to a fringe group of socialist who were hellbent on getting more secular candidates in office to erode religion, would it really matter to you that his privacy was violated? Or that he was in cahoots to undermine things you believe will harm people's freedom to religious pursuits?
I'd probably laugh my ass off for a bit then carry on as normal to be honest because it wouldn't be some huge shock and I'd only feel bad if that was the basis for them facing cancellation after because it was revealed maliciously but lets be real here you could probably be found to be funding the Cuban Regime at this point and face no cancellation for it lol
And if your answer is something as simple as "I'd give it equal footing", then you must understand that we can just point to this case that you have not given equal footing to Cawthon. You talked about him donating without knowing, and that it's a shame that his private life was exposed, but not that he seemingly had a predisposition for funding anti-gay movements. Even going as far as giving to the one out democrat who has had anti-gay dealings. Waiting for the condemnation to make it equal.
To be honest, his explanation of his actions not being done maliciously against LGBTQ people holds weight at the idea of mobilising voting groups very much is a thing and really do people believe there isn't a push to get certain voting block on side while not actually caring about them in reality? Cawthon isn't Orson Scott Card explicitly giving the groups campaigning against gay marriage and nothing else. Dude was like "I gave to the politicians I though would do the best job not because of their stances on single issues mostly". Some of his donations were before said politicians even had publicly Anti-LGBTQ stances on record at all too. It would be like saying "So nice of everyone who supporting this massive inflation under Biden" and accusing Biden voters of being pro massive inflation because they donated to him now.
I'm not a hundred percent sure what you mean about Ruby Rose.
Well if you're argument boils down to I'd only support people based on their personal politics she's not exactly like the others so if you're trying to determine political positions based on whose claims I support and whose I don't then her claims about poor set conditions etc are rather different to Scott or Gina lol.
I had to compose myself to that "She isn't the only one that seemingly misused funds". You have no proof that she did. And you're still speaking about it like there's any substance to the claims. The woman is retained by a media giant. That's not 5 figures money. That most likely isn't 6 figures money. You have no proof other than "I don't know where she got the money to do that".
Being retained to speak every so often isn't 6 figure money. Maybe if she were a regular with a spot but retainers only get to that level when it's a big corporate retainer not a personal speaking one.
And your other link literally spelled it out in the title. He was kicked out, and then he posed as a leader or something to collect funds. He was found out and then brought to justice. But guess what? Even if he was an ardent believer that wanted to line his pockets, he's no different than other people who run similar scams. Like the Tierney Brothers who foundd out what that hot buttons issues were for Republicans, and soaked them for
23 Million
Yeh and didn't I say it was happening on both sides anyway?
If I gave such a damn about republican causes most of the time wouldn't I have called him out but yet the issue is I called out stuff like this on the left?
Do we call to question every Republican PAC now? The Republican movement itself because of this one guy? Or others like him? No. We realize that there's oppurntists everywhere. And to call good and honest Republicans into doubt because of the actions of these scammers is an insult to logic.
Pretty sure back in the day I had a good laugh at Trumpy Bear on here. It's almost like I don't care or don't expect that much better from one side but do from another.......
To your Goop comment. I'm attempting to take this seriously. I don't really mess around with redirections any more. I've banned Tstorm, Houseman, and others because of it. I really know nothing about Goop. I'm talking about how you took the stance. Goop itself is immaterial.
I quoted the part that I meant and you excluded it. You asked about people who made claims and did anyone find the evidence. The Pee tapes and what not. You have a person who signed a deal with a media group buying houses, and a guy who was ousted from the movement who contacted people directly to get a payday. You have no evidence for Culler, and yet you still speak of her like your doubt is damn near fact. Something you supposedly dislike.
Because simple logic and unfortunate precedent seeing this kind of thing happen has taught me just to expect it and it's unfortunately the most likely set of events here made worse by the fact she's very much been silent about it and rather than try to fight it she left the organisation.
And yes, you do have to prove with evidence that specifically that donation money was used. Because this isn't a game. This is someone's life that you're slandering. Because we live in a society where laws and fairness of how it's governed matters. You can't just make up accusations and go "What, all of a sudden I need proof?". Because once again, I can logic up a response.
As I said it could entirely be totally legit under the BLM charity structure but in the end it would still be the donation money being used just with extra steps
She teaches at two different Colleges.
She's an author of a Book
When They Call You Terrorist.
1) Guest / part time lectures
2) So are plenty of people. I live like 4 door down from a published author. Being one doesn't mean you earn that much in the end unless you end up with a runaway hit.
She has a multi-year deal with Warner Brothers as a developer of programming.
Presumable done in her role with BLM as co-founder not as her personally
She has another book that will drop October 5th of this year.
See previous point about authors. Hell hasn't Yahtzee written 5 books so far lol
So, we don't know how long she's been saving up to purchase these properties, but she has income from two college teaching jobs, not to mention her possible Advance for the first book, money from the sales, and the Advance of her second book, and whatever payment she worked out with Warner Brothers. For all you know, she's this short from 'rolling in it'. And instead of looking at these reasonable conclusions of how she can afford to buy properties, you stick to corrupt instead of looking at a hard working woman and thinking she might have been using some of that hard work to fund her life.
Do you get why people might question your motives for wanting to believe the worst of this lady that you don't even know when presented with all of that?
Nah, modular teaching positions (which based on looking up that's more what she does rather than main teaching) and the rest doesn't account for it when her property empire is worth $3 Million+ and she then dropped $35K right after for a security fence unless she got some very good mortgage deals or is in vast amount of debt from buying the stuff.
