I'm going through this thread and reading and I swear I'm the only person who doesn't know who Ezra Koenig is or Tara.
Vampire Weekend (led by Ezra) is one of the leading bands in the early internet era and influenced indie rock for years
Tavi was a young model who nobody really knew till right now
She said he coerced her to have s***and took advantage of her when she was drunk....
I didnt read OP
So he dated a 18 year old when he was 30 just for the sex?
extreme oversimplification
So he dated a 18 year old when he was 30 just for the sex?
Use both sides of your brain
here the pertinent paragraphs
So he dated a 18 year old when he was 30 just for the sex?
And got her drunk to coerce and force her to have s***
Too many people pretend that dating an 18 yo as a 30 yo man is acceptable or a good look. Good article and I agree with the writer that society conditions all genders to play into this bullshit. At the end of the day someone ends up the bigger victim and in this case it’s her.
extreme oversimplification
I am trying to figure it out but I don’t have time to read the short story article, this is what I got from the summary
S*** i cant watch neo yokio anymore

The only people who think that it’s okay are weirdos
Most people would have an issue with their 18 year old child dating a 30 year old

had s***with her while she was drunk and couldn’t consent
f*** him for life
S*** i cant watch neo yokio anymore
she herself said that ezra came up in a damaged place full of lies and deceit in regards to the power relationship between cishet men and women and that he should not be painted as a monster but as a lost person
she also said that this does NOT absolve him of what he’s done
I def get this but I feel like it’s true for pretty much any abuser / person that does this. Unless they’re on some sociopath s*** rarely is a pos a pos without reason. idk
