Accountability in Music [ARCHIVED] • Page 438

I don’t like that they did this

Glad I never got around to listening to anything in the last 5 years or so from Emarosa though

 

Idiot

 

would be cool if he got it

 

Fucked up that he’s allowed to do that

 

Just curious, are there accusations against Shane for misconduct, or is this just referring to his shameful pedophilia jokes?

 

his jokes that i know of

 

Also apparently said the n word

 

Yeah Shane is definitely a piece of shit, I just wasn't sure if there was an assault allegation I was unaware of on top of it all heh

Jeffrey Starr needs a lot more shit than he's getting as well.

 

Fantastic piece worth reading: “Boys will be boys” and other lies they tell you: the alternative music scene and its sexual assault problem

 

Every time I hear the phrase "Boys will be boys" I think of the song by Stella Donnelly and I think it's a good song calling out piece of shit rapists who get away with no consequences, and talking about how that phrase is ridiculous, similar to that article.

 

Every time I hear the phrase "Boys will be boys" I think of Sticky Fingers using that as an excuse for their past more-than-problematic behavior and I get even angrier they're still a big deal in Australia.

 

Jfc every new day more shitty behavior comes out of the pop punk / music as a whole / scene

 

He deleted that statement and posted a new response.

 

I was not even aware Jeff became a full-time member

Regardless, that's a whole lot of words to say "Our Drummer is racist, but we'd feel awkward forcing him out of the band, even though he clearly deserves it"

 

Context:

Wow, fuck that guy

I love this guy's response though:

 

Now imagine how many normal men act this way towards women.

I couldn’t do it.

 

If website rosters are any indication, it looks like the band has been dropped by both Hopeless and Roc Nation.
