My point is that you seemed to be explaining away Vince ostensibly sex trafficking an employee who was a victim of an incredible power imbalance as “Too many people get so caught up in people’s personal life.”
There's an argument to make about “separating the art from the artist,” so to speak. Still, you hadn't made it in this thread until I pointed out how crazy dismissing people who might have an issue with what Vince is accused of and Sasha saying what a genius he is without acknowledging those accusations, unprompted, by the way, is.
The whole documentary culminates in Prichard crying about how Vince was portrayed and how they missed out on the “human side of Vince,” only for the allegations against Vince to be made public shortly after.
To be clear, is your position that wrestlers (or Sasha specifically, I'm guessing that is where your investment in this stems from. I apologize if I'm wrong) get to wax poetic about how much of a genius Vince is and how contemporary wrestling owes everything to him — but people aren't allowed to point out that it's kind of in poor taste?
I don't subscribe to her newsletter because, generally, I'm not particularly interested in what she has to say. I did sign up in hopes of seeing the full quotes, but that doesn't allow you to view the archive like Substack does.
I’ve gone to a bunch of different websites, but I haven't seen the boilerplate R. Kelly, Michael Jackson, etc., disclaimer, “what he did was horrific and terrible; that being said, they were a genius in their field” attributed to her.
