The 49-year-old denied he was ever "a rapist", adding: "I've never engaged in non-consensual activity."

          one of those hippies whose only in it to get laid.

          100000%. I gather OldSoulHippie here traveled in the same or very similar circles around the same time as me growing up and we have seen soooooooooo many of these guys. I caught that vibe from him the first time I ever saw him speak. The dude just oozes sleaze.

            Yup. Most likely. I went to my first hippie music festival in 2006 and my last contact with “the scene” was 2023 at a Dead and Company show. I’ve seen some wild shit. I’ve had a lot of great times too, but there are so many scumbags that dress the part, have a nice face and enough earthy platitudes to lure young girls into thinking they’re so spiritual and wise. The movers and shakers of the jamband/festival world are for the most part absolute scumbags. The weird hippie capitalism that came up around what could have been a great place to mint leftists is really something to behold

        It’s the snake-oil salesman Mehmet Oz of The Dr Oz Show, spinoff from The Oprah Winfrey Show. Oz ran as republican in the Pennsylvania Senate race and lost to Fetterman. Yesterday Oz was confirmed by the Senate as the new Administrator of Medicare and Medicaid.

          It’s kind of lazy writing to name your sham witchdoctor “Oz” and have him just be the Wizard of Oz verbatim in a modern setting.

          Like maybe an allusion or something? Sure. But this heavy handed? Bruh. It’s like having a character named Benedict Wang Jingwei Arnold and they betray the protagonist.

    “I’ve never engaged in non-consensual activity.”

    Yeah, he’s consented to every sexual encounter that he’s forced on someone else.

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
