I don't know which is funnier -
a) It's true and Virgil is a sex pest
b) It's fake but someone hates Virgil enough to target him

virgil was the one who let Sam Hyde on stage to do the ironic anti gay set (though who knows if it was ironic given what turn he took), gwen and the cretins who hung around her were all on that poo poo

Really enjoyed the guest on TrueAnon talking about Robert Evans for 5 minutes without naming him.

Yeah lol. I've heard him say a couple times he moved to Portland to do his "journalism" there and often thought man it must really suck if you're just a person living in Portland and out of nowhere a bunch of cosplaying leftist operators from somewhere else are running all over your city

Maybe she felt like she had to wait until Virgil was no longer the one of the highest paid and one of the most famous podcasters in the country and now that he is a boring nobody who doesn’t do anything but vape and rail special-K she feels more comfortable coming forward.

I feel bad for this woman, and I feel bad for whoever Marie is, getting emails right now probably from the shittiest web-rags with messages like “was Virgil Texas grooming children while you dated?”

It’s important to remember that this woman has absolutely nothing to gain by coming out with this. Virgil’s fans are almost by definition extremely online. There is currently no conversion rate from clout to cash like this, so I’m left to believe it’s real because otherwise this woman is opening herself up to the most toxic online experience imaginable for what… spite?

I'm not gonna say it's real or fake, but being on a brand new account with no real identifying information or reciepts makes it being a con a credible possibility. Kind of an ugly situation, because if it is real she's presumably using a burner account to avoid getting the Tara Reade treatment from his more obsessive fans which is completely understandable, but also there's nothing there that couldn't have been cooked up by a hater weirdo with half hour of online research

“New Account” is a seriously bullshit excuse. No one is under any obligation to have social media and post memes for two years before coming forward about their grooming experience so people believe them (also if her account were 5 years old with daily posts, would you believe her?)

If it’s spite… why now?

gently caress Mr. Texas, gently caress anyone else guilty of it, and gently caress not giving women the benefit of the doubt especially. It's a line of thinking that easily goes from "Didn't happen." > "Did it happen?" > "It did happen, but oh well."

If their account were five years old and had been posting memes or whatever it would make it much less likely that it's a sock puppet rolled by someone with an axe to grind, yes. That's all I'm saying, not interested in defending Virgil and fully prepared to accept he did the things accused of.

I don't see any reason why I wouldn't trust the account, the e-mail screenshots while fakeable are also possible proof. That's more tangible than just an outright accusation.

'new account can't trust it' is the laziest way to dismiss a claim, jesus christ. If you are claiming abuse against a public figure, the very last thing you want is his legion of idiot fans crawling through your posts to prove every single thing you said wrong.

ok heres another reason to be suspicious. "Virgil (Justin)" is real loving weird phrasing that kind of gives away the game this is some internet drama stirring. other way around it would have been natural because she was talking to him as a private person. plus the deal about the rebel girl sam hyde situation, what year was that again? it would have been easier to say the year to establish the timeline, unless you're trying to use this as a chance to get in every burn at him to bury him in mud

and the allegations are so vague they don't mean anything. this smells like the alex morse poo poo

What are you talking about? I’d say it’s not necessarily a common known fact that Virgil’s name is Justin. I only know cause of cum town. It’s clear that the account is clarifying as they switch to his proper name.
