while i do not favor cancel culture, i do believe in holding people accountable for their actions. what happened this past weekend in knoxville for the fragadelphia event cannot be ignored and brushed under the rug.

on saturday night, 20+ others and myself witnessed and experienced aggressive and predatory behavior from jchance.

what started out as “jokes” and inappropriate comments like “women are so r*tarded, they wear their tits out and expect us not to look” then escalated into controlling, aggressive and physical intimidation when i stepped in to check in on a friend. he verbally declared he was forcing his way home with someone who had just told him no. he then physically blocked me repeatedly from reaching and communicating with her, using his body to shove and push me while simultaneously pushing her the opposite direction so hard she was pushed into a picnic table and shoved to the ground.

the following morning, 3 of his teammates (mainly MDS being the leader of the idea it seemed) approached her and i at the venue, not to simply check if we were okay, but to pressure us into staying silent. they minimized what happened, blamed alcohol/ what jchance has “been going through” and asked what it would take to not speak out.

^ this is what rape culture looks like in real time. it starts with comments insinuating women shouldn’t dress a certain way, escalates into unwanted touching, controlling behavior, ignoring boundaries, then gets excused as “he was drunk”.

when we, as a society or specifically the CS community in this case, brush off these behaviors, they normalize them and create unsafe enviroments. our scene deserves better. women deserve safety at events.

until jchance takes accountability and seeks real help he should not be trusted in spaces within our community. this isn’t about drama or cancellation, its truly about safety, accountability and refusing to normalize behaviors that put others at risk. we all have a responsibility to call out these behaviors and recognize them as early warning signs for rape culture.
