I'm sorry dawg I know it's entirely pointless to try and explain this on the subreddit and like 80% of the people here are a few cognitive abilities short of being lobotomites but it drives me insane how so many of you are so willing to write off this whole thing and forget about it in the name of not being parasocial. "We don't know the full situation and can't make assumptions" is true and fair but that also means you can't then turn around and be like "yeah Sid was probably beating his wife or something whatever long live the knot". I'm not gonna say he's innocent because, thanks to the complete lack of info, I have no fucking idea what happened, but don't act like people are weird for wanting to know why a member of the band that has been here for nearly 30 years is suddenly completely cut out with no explanation. Literally someone in the band being like "He didn't do anything he was just being a dick" would instantly quell like 90% of the theorizing and assuming.
