Re: God help me - the Test Cricket thread - LP - 11-26-2021
Also I do not get why discussing the extortion tactics of one party is somehow victim blaming.
FWIW, is there even a victim in this case, and if there is, is it the one you think, is it the one that woke culture declares?

100% . I get the feeling that one party was interested in some coin.

Do all dickheads deserve compensation, have they always got to have someone else to blame for their own stupidity?
As an observer I've been through scenarios like this many times in a corporate environment, dodgy emails between participants is the typical scenario which then become disclosed due to some social or workplace fallout. It's impossible to convince me either party is a victim without extraordinary evidence. To add to my cynicism the issues are nearly always settled based on opinion, and that is rarely an opinion aligned with the party who is right, it's usually about money! We waste so much time and effort dotting the Is and crossing Ts to avoid being the victim of an opportunistic ar5ehole who has discovered a trick to profit at the expense of others from a FB page! Woke is just the new Political Correctness, which was just the new Feminism, which was just the new ....... fill in whatever movement you like to declare here.

I'm not at all surprised the mental stress got to him. His life now changed and it doesn't seem at all fair.

Pat Cummins the new captain.

And his mates in the media excuse his behaviour.... Because only Australians cheat.
