    This bassnectar stuff is crazy. I'm not even really familiar with his music, but I have a few friends who know him, and I'd never heard anything about him that would indicate that he was that sort of monstrous human being. Jesus... I just hate this world sometimes.

    What the FUCK. I was a big Bassnectar fan, and I have so many fond memories of his music. And I remember being so happy when he and Trent were on the same flight and he had joked that he was so scared that he wanted Trent to hold his hand (I think Trent retweeted that). Needless to say, I am infuriated as fuck. I am deleting everything I have from him (including my Last.fm plays) and will never listen to a single note from him again. Fuck you, Lorin. Fuck you.

    Manson reddit says its a conspiracy to take him down. They say hes innocent!!!! and Esme and Evan are liars trying to take their hero down!!!! lmfao talk about denial and delusion....Must suck to know your hero is a depraved scumbag rapist and abuser of women........He won't serve one day in jail unless multiple women come forward and do to him what happened to Weinstein. Regardless, his career is over. I can't see him ever releasing another album or playing a show. The delusional idiots who still support him aren't enough to carry a full fledged tour

    There are people on the Reddit saying he could record an ‘amazing’ album in prison, ha. With who? He’s not Varg Vikernes who apparently did this. He doesn’t do music so he has to have collaborators and who will want to go down with that sinking ship? Even when it comes to touring it always seemed like it was with another band to bump sales up like Rob Zombie where Manson is basically the support act. Sharon Osbourne may have said she doesn’t know anything about that side of him but I still can’t see Ozzy booking Manson as support now.

    I can’t believe this, I loved him in Dr Who and even more in Auf Wiedersehn Pet! It’s really disturbing what goes on behind the scenes in the entertainment industry. In 10 years time are we going to be hearing stories like this from current tv makers. Nothing ever seems to change and I thought things were getting better and harassment was an older generations thing

    This is something i am NOT surprised about, in fact i've been waiting for it to hit! In the mid to late 00's there was a magazine called Front (a lads mag, if you don't know what that is it was a magazine that had boobs and mens stuff, but front was aimed at alternative culture. Girls with Tattoo's, rock music, skating etc, it was great) The editor at the time was a model and they had done an interview with him. She called him out at the time on Twitter for being really fucking rude, condescending and creepy (i don't remember the exact details but it was enough for me at the time to take notice) and you know what happened? He got his follower's to hound her off Twitter, and NOBODY SAID A DAMN THING! To this day she has been missing from Socials (probably for good reason) and i've seen him get lauded for his roles and get bigger and bigger so it's good to see Karma finally catch up to this prick!

    I saw that. I want to imagine the judge, upon reading the request to release the child/sister molester to the custody of his brain-washed wife and vulnerable children, had to stifle the urge to throw the whole damn lawyer team in jail with him.

    At this point, nothing that comes out will surprise me about him anymore.

    An acquaintance of mine just brought him up and hadn't been keeping up with any of the news about the band in recent years. Was floored when I told him about everything that's been happening.

    It's fucked up, looking back on that point in my life where that music meant so much to me, and realizing I was only ever seeing a small part of what really existed, portraying exactly what sold to impressionable rebellious kids.

    Is it really fifteen women now? Jesus.

    Wouldn't be surprised if he fled the country.

    I'm a little more bullish on the prospect of some sort of accountability, for whatever criming he's done. He's very clearly not running for reelection so surely the GOP will abandon him. There's absolutely no risk to flip his district and whoever ends up winning will come with less drama, even by Florida standards. It's a win / win for the GOP.

    the amount of Jeffrey Epstein articles with Bill Gates being a close friend are oddly timed. I get that you can't speak ill of the super rich but all of them all of a sudden? And not when Epstein was alive?

    Yeah, the whole thing is starting to get really weird. I never really had an opinion about Bill Gates in general, but now he's starting to give me the creeps.

    Manson's legal team has had some pretty "wow" public statements, but to dismiss Smithline's accusations because "their relationship only lasted like a week" is pretty insane.

    She's claiming he cut her up with a nazi emblazoned ritual dagger and threw her into a locked soundproofed room called "the bad girls room" when he didn't like her behavior. Uh, yeah, good call, get the fuck out of there.

    But OK, so in this case, the victim ran screaming within a week, and now the refutation is "PUH-lease, that wasn't even a real relationship, it was a week-long fling." Whereas if she spent a few years with this guy, the rejection is "well, if he was so horrible, why did she stay for so long?"

    I am friends with a lot of girls who are Manson fans (including one well known former VJ from Fuse). Every single one of them is defending him and thinks its bullshit or that "these girls knew what they were getting involved in"..........I can see how these guy was able to keep getting girls into his web.

    Well, I get pretty angry when I read that justification (« they knew who he was » etc.). No they didn’t. People are not supposed to have a « bad girls room » or if they do, it’s only supposed to be a bad joke, like a nickname for a regular closet for your socks or whatever. Not an actual soundproof room where you can lock up anyone you want. Play with knifes however you want, but it’s not okay to cut anyone up and pretend it’s not on you, but on them (« you’re a Jew, so I draw a swastika » etc, who does that and gets away with it ffs?).
    The problem is that this asshole used his money and fame to gain personal power by abusing others. He should have spent it learning to compose and play music and be a better artist, and a better person. But he didn’t.

    edit: spelling

    Speaking of Manson, his former assistant is now suing him, too.
