Isn't the answer is that she did? It's not like a mystery event where everybody involved can't be questioned later. There should be multiple interviews with the band members saying that Yoko didn't cause it/contribute to it greatly.

The problem is that the people involved have different answers at different points in time. For example Paul was much more hostile towards John and Yoko in the early 70's and his statements at the time lean towards blaming Yoko. However by the mid 90's in the Anthology books and documentary he's far more generous to both John and Yoko.

So depending on the time period the same source can give conflicting accounts or give different emphasis to the same event. You can make a plausible case for using either the early accounts as they are closing in time to the events in question or use the later accounts as the early accounts were tainted by animosity.

In cases like this I'd say that past interviews are way more applicable. Basic human psychology makes you rationalize the past and view it at a lens. Not to mention decades of gaslighting on Yoko being a victim by feminists. Or feelings of guilt.

The opposite is only true if the events happened during the time the person was underage and wasn't capable of the same worldview as an adult (and even in those cases people rationalize abuse).

The fact Lindsay has more than a million views on that video is a tragedy. I personally can't take Lindsay's essays seriously because they are made out of hate and spite, even if she is good at hiding it with humor. She never outgrew her "fuck you dad" phase. It's obvious she is still bitter.

She must know people at YT for that to happen. Her channel hasn't had activity in two years, except for one video where she announces her new book a month ago, and yet it jets up to a million hits despite others with more frequent posts barely getting 20k.

But I doubt she's going to try and come back. She doesn't want to admit she's failed as a writer and can only make her videos. She'll insist she's a professional author despite the books not selling and her simps will bury the numbers every chance they get. Because the truth has always been Lindsay's enemy.

Some #UnexpectedNostalgiaChick in this video today.

Red Cow Arcade is a podcast by two amateur filmmakers from Massachusetts who have a small but longstanding channel best known for a series called BoxMac where they review retail boxed mac& cheese.

Their channel went viral a few years back when they were one of the first YTubers to talk shit about sacred crow James Rolfe/AngryVideoGameNerd after he started to reveal his incompetence and autism about his setup in a Behind The Scenes video.

Anyway, a fellow Breadtuber and apparently former Channel Awesome alum Dan Olson/FoldingIdeas made an hour long navelgazing video essay last month about Rolfe, shitting on his amateur filmmaking choices and calling James' alogs Nazis.

Ellis and Olson make a brief appearance at the end of this critique-of-the-critique in a clip where they shit on the quality of Doug Walker's sets and craft services in the pre #ChangetheChannel era because they'd both been on "real filmsets"

I have to wonder what sets these two were on if they were complaining about how Doug ran things.

My unrequested take on 'buck broken' in Japanese:
1) 騸馬: Gelding, yeah not as bombastic but does the same thing.
2) 女装: Joso, lit. girl's clothes, term used to describe 'alternative masculinities in Japan and South Korea of men using make-up and wearing unisex clothing, separated from cute boys, not quite traps. Not quite as fatalistic because it meant to be a gag.
3) 愛獣: Love Beast. This one is the exact opposite but felt like sharing, 愛獣　猟る！(Love Beast: Hunt) is a 1983 Roman Porno made by Nikkatsu about a bunch of Japanese school girls looking to fuck black soldiers at Yokosuba and is every bit as fetishistic as it sounds. The pink film rabbit hole is a peek in the mind of the average Japanese pervert.
4) 草食系: Herbivore men or grass eater men, basically the Japanese version of a beta male and the absolute peak of satori performance.

Reading Murakami fucks you up as much as watching anime.

Lindsay mentioned being sexually harassed on a set in 2014 back when #Metoo was in its prime, but refused to name the dude who did it, saying he had won two Oscars, but we wouldn't know him (He goes to another school. In Canada). She might also be allowed 'on set' as a producer for the Kardashians. But she's probably just talking about student films she helped out with before she dropped out in a huff because she felt personally insulted by a guest speaker making a general observation.

There’s moments when she was about to embrace being a huge lolcow like when she wanted to launch her own lolsuit and then her undoubtedly fictitious #MeToo story. As much as she wanted to do those things, ultimately she knew it was too risky and decided just to keep things vague.

The list of two time Oscar winners made it a pretty short list of potential suspects, given its 21 guys, over half of whom are dead.

She heavily implied it was Clint Eastwood, if I remember, but never went as far as naming him... probably because making a false accusation against him in public would get her wrecked by a libel suit.

It's also obvious she started with the premise, " Sucessful Men Bad. Women near them Good," and then she worked backwards to justify her premise. Did she even edit out the Amber Heard part? If not that, just tell me she still stands by it, despite the fact it has been proven by now she was the abusive one.

I can buy that maybe Yoko Ono's hate due to "breaking up the beatles""was overblown, but the fact that she was an absolute terrible artist is true. And no amount of Lindsay trying to portray her as a gilrboss will change that. Contrary to what breatubers want to believe, sometimes a man is more talented than a woman in a chosen field or creative group. Both men and women can be talentless or successful.

It happened to Yoko Ono. And it happened to her, as both Ryan Coogler and Doug Walker are more talented than she is. And no amount of 2-hour video essays will change that.

I also got the feeling that she just lazily uploaded this from her Nebula backlog without updating any of the information regarding Amber "It's not punching when I hit a man in the face with my fist" Heard. A lot of the video felt very slapdash, shoddily slapped together and just not very good.

On a brighter note, the video did make me wanna watch Walk Hard again.

Wait, what was that observation?

She used to have a blog called "Lindsay Goes to Hollywood" that she retitles "Name Brand Lindsay" after she dropped out of college. One of her entries, she talked about some dude coming to her class, also attended by Ryan Coogler, and said something like they weren't good enough to automatically make it big. Been a long time since I read it, but I think the dude was trying to get them to lower their expectations if they assumed once they graduated they'd immediately step into star director positions. Lindsay took it as an insult and walked out, then a few years later went back and finished her degree.

I always assumed it was that documentary guy she worked for, never saw her imply it was Eastwood. Or maybe I did and was just too dense to get it.

Even then, "Two time Oscar winner" makes for a pretty short list. For Best Documentary, I think it's just one guy, Simon Chinn.

The snipes at Clint Eastwood make me think it's him. Plus, Ala Lena Dunham, Lindsay would totally claim a guy raped her just because he is a Republican.

If she tried to #MeToo Clint Eastwood, it would fall apart immediately which is why she never went through with it. Even she knows that she’d have to do more than vague accusations. Sounds like Clint committed the ultimate crime of making her feel bad for not being treated like she is someone special, which I imagine is very common in the film industry. Lindsay can collect her marginal amounts of victimhood cred by being vague, versus making a specific accusation and very likely ending up on the wrong side of it.

It's not because she is Asian, it's because her hometown was carpetbombed to annihilation. Yeah it got rebuilt pretty good but that's still way more actual oppression than most white anglo women have or will ever experience.

Yoko Ono's warbling during a duet with John Lennon is what made Chuck Berry snap and want to fart on women. Ofcourse Lindsay defends her.
