The @_DustCollectors record label lied about making a $1000 donation to the Minnesota Freedom Fund. They then deleted their account in an attempt to delete all the evidence (a thread)
For context here's their original post asking for some submissions to a compilation they were making in response to the George Floyd situation. It's a screenshot from Discord of the original tweet (they deleted their account remember) + my response that caused them to dm me
The original tweet was super tone-deaf. It's obviously an immoral PR campaign trying to exploit the death of an innocent black man to get some free engagement from the music community but let's skate over that for now...
@filmore_beats had asked for evidence and I had asked too so he tried to give me some bullshit. Why hide the transaction ID you actually donated. I can find a screenshot like this just by googling "Minnesota Freedom Fund $1000". I checked just to make sure and you actually can
I didn't message back for a bit cus I'd replied at work. In that time this guy really got trigger happy with the keyboard tho, why so much text if you're innocent 🤔 Also wanna add he was really slandering big labels and talkin deflective bullshit even though i only said "Yo"
In my head I'm like "yeah I don't believe him but he's not really proved anything 100%", so I ask him to just take a better screenshot. He made the payment, why would that be an issue. Just send me the Paypal screenshot and this can be over and done with.
He accused me of trying to constantly "move the goal posts" in terms of proof, all I wanted was some evidence, just a fucking screenshot. He also contradicted himself and I was now certain he'd been lying
This is the second bit of evidence he tried, you could legit fake this in a word doc like why we so zoomed in so far fam. At least it looked like a Paypal transaction unlike the next bit
I sent a huge message saying that if he doesn't gimme evidence (I gave him a chance), then I'd tell people. He sent me a screenshot and a link to the page where he "donated" but this charity doesn't run through Paypal, there's no amount and nothing identifies DC as donator🤦🏾‍♂️
This was kinda genius on his part because the charity's DMs weren't open to the public so I couldn't confirm any information. Too bad he confirmed he was lying by assuming I hadn't taken any screenshots 🤭
After this the chat was gone. Now usually this wouldn't be good evidence but:

1. He argued for two hours instead of giving me a screenshot
2. He sent contradicting evidence
3. If you're innocent why delete your business and PERSONAL FUCKING TWITTER ACCOUNT @_bretsil
Three takeaways from this whole thing:

1. Dust Collectors can't be trusted

2. Damn even though @JackDean23 's a lil sus maybe he wasn't lying that one time he said Bret was an asshole

3. You're never too young to be a prick
Just to prove they were deleted (because somehow the DC one is back now), here are some screenshots

The original post that caused him to reply to me, thankfully Twitter doesn't delete threads. It does show that he deleted the original tweet though https://twitter.com/Graggdiddyfrag/status/1266385333450616834?s=20
