    Not to even mention the timing. It’s all a little too convenient.

    The “timing” is “while everybody is discussing the issues within LTT”. That’s a completely reasonable time for an ex-employee to contribute their views.

    If you’re presenting “how conversations work” as suspicious, I don’t think that skepticism is healthy at all.

      Not to play semantics like the insanely bad take from Linus, but this isn’t just a conversation, her accusations are serious.

      I was clearly being unclear, the timing isn’t important here. The me too movement showed that a lot of people who faced some of the same things she did stayed quiet for years.

      The point of them being over worked is being known for a while. I mean the whole channel knows about it, they even filmed a video with employees stating it and asking for the production to slow down.

      The other accusations are what indeed are weird. She accuses them of sexual harassment as well insulting her and shit.

      Considering that she’s one of those people who “change” pronouns (she has she/they in the X profile) I’m just guessing she wasn’t the easiest person to handle in a work environment (specially in a company that at the time didn’t have a working HR department).

        What point were you wanting people to take away from your comment? Because it seems like it’s supposed to be “people with preferred pronouns can’t be trusted and will just make up stories about sexual assault”.
