I still don't get it

"You committed, and still commit, the crime of accepting TF’s money in exchange for your silence and helping them with their lies."

I think you are trying to jerk somebody's chain. This is a line that many keep repeating but why? It doesn't make sense to me, firstly because it is not like they kept silent.

Then how much of that is envy? That you didn't get any money, or maybe that you had some bone to pick with them from way back then, or that you never got compensation or rewarded, or accepted, who knows why. I am not trying to blame you for anything but I haven't read any real solid reason as to why those who got any money from TF in any way they could, should be considered supporters of TF.

Unless you know something you are not saying or is there any evidence that they were lying when exposing TF, then I still don't understand where these allegations come from. I am not in defense of their reputation or of what they are doing, just that this is a non-issue in my opinion. If it is a real solid issue for you, then spell it out. So far nobody has, only made a lot of noise. What else is in there?
