GenCon enables Sexual ass**lt?

The victims statement says the two have been "friends" for years and the attack was a long uncomfortable hug and not what Whoopie would consider rape-rape. There is a good chance the roommates were given the chance to veto room selections and the friends declined. There is a really good chance the victim virtue signaled a level of friendship/comfort that didn't exist and the attacker misjudged the relationship. The last two are speculation of course, until more info comes out that's all we have.
I think virtue signaling leftism was more responsible than Gen Con.

Given two other people were similarly "approached" by them during the same GenCon, sometimes mere minutes after an incident with this person, I am guessing this was not the case. This was alcohol and horniness. It sure seems like, if you had a pulse and were present and willing to talk to them in the most basic of acquaintance level ways, they were hitting on you.

It's now been over three months and #GenCon has yet to make a statement on the matter.
Imagine my shock.

They are in a no-win of their own creation. If they don't speak, they're endorsing violence against women. If they do speak, they're encouraging violence against transwomen.
Live by the sword, die by the sword. That people never notice progressives are hungriest for their own always amazes me.

But is anyone actually making any noise over GenCon’s non-response? Stalling for time and being non-responsive can be effective. GenCon can hope this is one bad actor, now removed, without having to address the rooming situation. Now, if there’s a second incident in the next year or two they probably can’t continue to be non-responsive, but I bet they’d be willing to risk it to avoid having to make a declarative statement one way or the other.

Oh come on. We all knew they would do something like this.
SOP when one of their own gets caught is to just wait and eventually the cult will forget and move on to the next outrage.
