Cool.
So we told yall about EkoGrande& #39;s trifling ass MONTHS ago and was met with all kinds of disbelief and confusion, one victim was told the evidence provided was too old, and in another case people & #39;didn& #39;t want to disrupt the team.& #39;
I& #39;m mad all over again.

This is what we mean by

I am STILL APPALLED that a TWITCH PARTNER AND TEAM LEADER said & #39;this evidence isn& #39;t within 3 months, it& #39;s moot& #39; and legit went about his business making whatever corny ass content he makes.
I don& #39;t know because dude has me blocked from when I called out his ableism jokes.

We issued receipts, testimonies, documents, justified anger, time stamps, the works.
Up until this weekend? One of the outcomes was one of the victims being BANNED across several channels and being called a whole WHORE to her FACE for politely declining advances.

and guess what? THAT DUDE IS STILL ONE OF YALL FRIENDS. One of y& #39;all chill cool buddies. One of y& #39;all regulars.
Though, I wouldn& #39;t be surprised if some of y& #39;all didn& #39;t know that part, because anyone defending a predator defaults to a sleeze, knows it, and keeps it DL.

But this thread isn& #39;t explicitly about dragging Eko, or ReMattch, or Mattchew, or whatever he& #39;s slithering around as, just like yesterday isn& #39;t about solely about JimboSlicexx being hot garbage:
it& #39;s about the fact that we do what you ask-we speak up-and it gets explained away.

I watched, first hand, as my mod CALMLY explained what happened to her. How she was the 3rd victim, how she felt like filth and violated.
TBD& #39;s leadership claimed & #39;we yelled at him a lot, and we bought someone more social justicy back to deal.& #39; He remained on Staff.

I watched, first hand, as Eko& #39;s victims tried behind mountains of frustration explain what happened and why it was awful.
NTH& #39;s leadership was more focused on & #39;keeping the peace& #39; than keeping their community safe from predators. They didn& #39;t want to rock the boat.

Before I continue: I want to make it clear that some of those leaders DID step down. They did say & #39;do right, or I leave.& #39; And they left. I can put respect on that.
But if you still fucking with NTH despite knowing all this? Nah.
Looking at you NTH staff still there.

But I am so, so absolutely furious, that we told so, so many people and the response was
-not enough evidence
-how could you do this
-I poured over evidence and saw nothing (IM SO SICK OF THIS)
This is why victims don& #39;t speak up.

I& #39;m telling y& #39;all: listen to victims.
Listen to victims.
Listen to victims.
The reason the Eko story scares me is because this is how the shit STARTS.

It starts with two or three low end victims, who are made uncomfortable by lewd jokes, or get a bad vibe.
I remember seeing tweets about him from other women at TC, going he seemed & #39;pushy, overbearing, and kind of weird& #39;-these tweets were public. Real public.

Y& #39;all. We gotta do better with warning signs.
We gotta do better with stepping in.
We gotta do better with awareness because I get it, sometimes it ISNT easy to confront shit head on-so tell someone who CAN do it.
Y& #39;all can lean on folx like me. DO IT!

I couldn& #39;t have been at TC because I would& #39;ve clapped his ass right there and I ALSO would& #39;ve clapped the asshole who called a victim a whore. Legit, I probably would& #39;ve dropped one of them.
But we all as a collective need to be better about this. We can& #39;t wait until there& #39;sa public air out session to dig through the archives and be like & #39;oh yea, I heard about this vaguely& #39; and say something then.
