What choice really does Beatnik have to consent to it or not when the entire admin team is calling him a suspected rapist.
This is the entire implication of forcing him to give control of the site over, forcing him to step down from every mod position, stickying his accusations, and participating in the threads where people mock him and call him a variety of terms from rapist to groomer.
For leftists you don’t seem to have the concept of coercion, Beatnik was not in a position to ask for the info not to be publicized because it would have been “not cooperating with the investigation” as if you’re all cops. It was on you to handle this better and not put him at further risk, as the acting admins of the site. Instead, you stickied all of the identifying information someone might need to target and harm him.
we would have been completely fine if he wasn’t comfortable with this information being shared.
This doesn’t mean anything because you made the choice to do it regardless. It should have been obvious that doing so to any user of this site is a horrible example, especially for building faith in a site that prides itself on privacy and protecting its users. Now the precedent is for any wild accusation fabricated by a cumtown poster, that user will have every bit of identifying information collected into an album and put on display pinned on the site.
That’s not how coercion works, it’s implied pressure. He wrote several comments about how he was made to gave up control of the website, TC wrote about how he had been removed from everything.
Transparency might be the thing you’re going for, but you’ve endangered the person you’re all pretending to support now and are unapologetic and unable to recognize how badly this was handled.
