so has anyone attacked Scott Benson's account yet for being uncredible or is it still all about Zoe Quinn for some strange, indeterminate reason?

from what I understand, Scott's account has also come under heavy attack for various reasons:

1. He's trying to make things all about himself [I think this is fine, though. it's a personal account, of course it's going to be about what happened to him personally]

2. The account is, in places, vague enough that people question whether Scott was partially at fault for the events in question. For instance, he says that Alec threatened to kill himself on various occasions if Scott didn't do what he wanted. That's obviously not a good look, but what did Scott do to precipitate that kind of reaction? Or Alec having a (largely unspecified) breakdown - what did Scott do there?

3. Not following through on a joint project is jerk behavior, but it's not "abuse." It diminishes real abuse when you call having a flaky co-worker "abuse."

4. Some people are cynically saying Scott's acting to keep all the NITW profits to himself and away from Alec's estate. oh I hate capitalism but gimme those sweet NITW profits plz

5. Other people are cynically saying that he's virtue signaling (my close friend/associate has been accused of sexual assault GOTTA DISTANCE MYSELF FAST) and it's kinda crappy to ditch a friend in favor of randos, like where's the loyalty? [though IMO it sounds like Alec was a pretty awful "friend" to begin with so I think it makes sense to ditch him]

I'm probably missing stuff but those are some of the main talking points
