>>69238415I am still struggling to understand why you think releasing knowledge that she was going to make harassment claims public constitutes ANY sort of protection, considering how they stopped there.
See, let's just look at the two possibilities.
1. The claims are baseless.
Alright. Then the question comes up: Does Nijisanji EN fear those claims or not?
If they do not fear those claims, there is zero reason to make those claims public in the termination notice. Let them come, if she dares.
If they fear those baseless claims, then their behavior also makes zero sense. After termination, you should not make the fact that she has those claims public. If you stay quiet, she might lose her nerve and stay quiet. It might be a 1% chance, but it's there. If you talk about her claims, then she 100% has to acknowledge them, which fucks your reputation! It's a pure unforced error.
But okay, you've made the mistake, whatever. So you got to get out ahead of the baseless claims, right? You're fighting in the court of public opinion, right?
Then you should release a tell-all. After all, the ENTIRE basis of your decision hinged on the fact that you were ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED she was going to release those claims, so it doesn't hurt you to release them all first.
You should lay out each of her claims made one by one, show her stated reasons and evidence for making them, and show how they are utterly false. It should be easy. You have much more information about the whole situation. Surely you prepared a defense before you took the initiative. You still have complete discord logs, she's cut off from them. You can fucking shape the narrative by going over each one in detail before she can give her side of the story. That's literally the whole point of going first!
But no, they didn't do this. They ALSO hid the specific claims. Instead they attempted a character assassination by talking about her recording them, and how hurt they are, how they are doxxed in a fucking legal document, they focused on her MV release as if anyone cares about justifying the termination, etc. Anything except the claims. That is really fucking suspicious.
2. The claims are rooted in fact.
In this case, you are utterly convinced she's going to release them because you can't conceptualize how anyone could let such a sure-win opportunity pass by. So you want to get out ahead, but you also can't reveal her actual claims because they are so goddamned damaging that you can't spin anything to disprove them. You're just fucked. So your entire strategy is just to discredit her. You tiptoe around your supposed reason for preemptive disclosure and hope people don't notice.
Then everything makes very simple sense. You had no choice but to behave in this way. Telling everyone she was threatening to release claims of harassment without actually releasing those claims of harassment yourself is the furthest you can go without fucking yourself over. The pieces all fall into place.
