The Tuts make dubious allegations after Brixton Windmill gig

[George & Bill]

tbf, it was obvious on p2 that she was an arsehole. p1 even.

Would the fact of her being an arsehole be in conflict with the possibility of her having been the victim of assault? How would the one affect the other?

She wasn't though was she? It was obvious to anyone with even half a brain that Seamus had thrown her out of the pub for being an arsehole and she thought that constituted an assault.

Well, that wasn't obvious to Minnie, Editor, and others who were still being careful to keep a balanced view at that point. The more you go on about how obvious it was, the less credit I am able to give you.

I don't think there's loads of people on here disbelieving the story. I think it's more a case of not judging until they've heard the full story, as Twitter is known for not exactly being the best source of accurate information until stories have been backed up somewhere else

I said I didn't think there's loads of people disbelieving the story. That doesn't mean anything

 

[George & Bill]

Minnie, you said

I think it's more a case of not judging until they've heard the full story

Which to me implies that you thought it was to early to say whether or not there was anything in the allegation of assault. Obviously I may have misinterpreted...

Right, too busy to be dealing with this nonsense. Have more important things to do.

Please continue

Hmm, not quite sure how you're interpreting what I'm saying, when what I'm meaning to say is that I'm in accordance with the line you took. But whatever.

Sorry, misreading/misinterpreting I think

The conversation was dead and buried days ago.

Then some goon watches the movie and wants everyone to re-enact the foreplay scene again, especially for him.

 

[Blagsta]

Apparently he's going to make "an artwork" out of it. What a wanker.

Well, before I came along, you'd last posted on this thread ~12 hours previously...

'A Blagsta Taxonomy'

Alleged victims of assault - Arseholes

People who become amused at repetitive and baseless demands for an apology - Wankers


Any more?

 

[killer b]

are you bored?

 

[Pickman's model]

Well, that wasn't obvious to Minnie, Editor, and others who were still being careful to keep a balanced view at that point.

at what point did minnie, editor et al stop having a balanced view?

 

[spanglechick]

Why? Because I've called you on the way you dismissed a story of a woman being assaulted when others still felt the case was open?

Well, it was 50/50, others said it was too early to call, and you took a punt - the most obvious reason for the punt you took is misogyny, but it could be something else. But it still doesn't look good.

We might have to leave this that I'm rude, and you're a broken, possibly slightly misogynistic record.

ffs - what the fuck has Nadia's gender got to do with anything? This repeated claiming of this event as in anyway being a matter of sexist oppression or abuse is, frankly, insulting to women.

 

[Pickman's model]

Well, Brixton Hatter said 'if you feel that strongly about it', which is a pretty shocking down-playing of an alleged racist assault.

do you believe there was a racist assault? y/n, no fucking blather.

 

[George & Bill]

at what point did minnie, editor et al stop having a balanced view?

Sorry, balanced is the wrong word - the point is that they and most others weren't calling it either way at that point.

 

[Pickman's model]

Blagsta said that Nadia 'sounds like an arsehole' - which as it turns out is probably true, bit was a pretty fucking interesting to find relevant at that stage.

do you mean it's probably true that (a) blagsta said nadia 'sounded like an arsehole', (b) nadia does sound like an arsehole, or (c) nadia is an arsehole?

 

[Pickman's model]

Sorry, balanced is the wrong word - the point is that they and most others weren't calling it either way at that point.

leaving aside 'at that point', does reading the rest of the thread validate or invalidate the points blagsta was making at this early stage?

 

[George & Bill]

No you silly twat, as I said in my first post on this thread. I just think it's a shame a couple of people seem to have made up their minds rather worryingly prematurely.

shh. let the men sort this out.

Fair enough in the second two examples (in the case of the first, I said 'woman' because it was a woman, and would have said 'man' if it was a man.

As I was trying to make clear, I don't know exactly why Blagsta decided that early on that Nadia was full of shit, but I can't think of any reasons that don't reflect badly on him.

so you think it's appropriate when this thread's reached into the 30s of pages and more than 1000 posts to have a pop at people who called this correctly when there were 35 fewer pages and fewer than 100 posts contributed.

what a fucking timewasting cunt you are.

 

[George & Bill]

Cronyism is probably the single biggest factor tbh.

for the alleged assault on the vodka-swilling, punch-throwing singer of the tuts?

i'm not acting as a mod, i'm pointing out you're a cunt.

 

[George & Bill]

Cronyism is probably the main reason some people believed one side or the other before it was clear who was telling the truth. This will apply on both sides.

I can't say I rate most of your interjections that highly either, although I confess you do succeed in dispersing them very widely.

they were thinking it though.
