I saw Justin Sane from Anti-Flag reactivated his Instagram and made a statement denying the allegations.

Justin Sane released a statement and the other 3 members of Anti-Flag released their own statement.
Justin
"Recently, there have been claims of sexual assault made against me and I can tell you that these stories are categorically false. I have never engaged in a sexual relationship that was not consensual, nor have I ever been approached by a woman after a sexual encounter and been told I had in any way acted without her consent or violated her in any way. Now that I have had a few days to absorb the initial shock, I am making this statement to set the record straight.
Sexual assault is real and has a devasting impact on victims. I have devoted my entire adult life to standing up for these victims as well as those suffering oppression and inequality, who are victimized, demeaned, and abused. I have always been, and will always be, that person. The statements being told about me are the antithesis of what I believe and how I have conducted myself throughout my life.
In regard to Anti-flag disbanding, as a band, the decision was made that under these circumstances it would be impossible to continue.
I want to thank my family and friends, and the many, many fans, musicians, and bands who have reached out to me to offer their support and help."
The rest of band
"A core tenet of the band Anti-Flag is to listen to and believe all survivors of sexual violence and abuse. The recent allegations about Justin are in direct contradiction to that tenet. Therefore, we felt the only immediate option was to disband.
We have been shocked, confused, saddened and absolutely heartbroken from the moment we heard these allegations. While we believe this is extremely serious, in the last 30 years we have never seen Justin be violent or aggressive toward women. This experience has shaken us to our core.
We understand and apologize that this response may not have been quick enough for some people. This is new territory for all of us and it is taking time for us to process the situation.
It was a privilege for us to be in the band Anti-Flag, as we seek to find our path forward we wish healing to all survivors.
- Chris, Chris, and Pat

This is the most I have thought about or seen Anti Flag discussed in my entire life.

So because they didn't tell him he raped them he's not a rapist? Way to take accountability. What a dickhead.

If I'm reading into it incorrectly I'll admit I'm wrong.

unless you were on some Irreversible shit, how would anyone know that a sex partner felt violated unless they literally told them

Because after being sexually assaulted a victim shouldn't feel like they need to speak to the person again

I think what he’s getting at is that her claim is baseless because she didn’t tell him first before going public about it. It shouldn’t be the victim’s responsibility to reach out in any way to the raper in this situation.

how come people only ever say "categorically false" when they're denying sex assault allegations?

I know you’re not defending him, but he’s trying to diminish her claim by saying it wasn’t addressed with him personally. |

i meant how would someone know to take accountability for something without knowing there is something gravely serious they need to hold themselves accountable for -- just as general positing

So either Kevin Spacey has the greatest lawyers ever or the British courts are total ass, because he was cleared of all 12 counts of sexual assault.

I’ve somehow become pro flag Flags rock. Super useful tool for advertising which side you’re on in a war or international sporting event crowd. Or for telling people what’s up when you’re on a boat and they’re on a different boat and you don’t have a radio. Plus many have fun and attractive designs. I’m not saying all flags are good but you gotta hand it to em |
