Popular musicians are hardly an unusual source of drama... and most know it. Similarly, con staff tend to gripe - in private, to other staff - about issues which may impact their organization. (I wouldn't be surprised if this included Flayrah and/or myself from time to time.)
Istanbul's role is directly related to social media; he'd be expected to comment on a social media issue. That is, in part, his job. Given how guests reflect on cons, it might be useful information to the guest team to consider for next year. Social media postings are (usually) public, so they don't have to trust a private opinion. They can look at the tweets and judge for themselves.
I'm more curious as to why you're so persistent in trying to drive a wedge between this con and its future guests by unveiling what is, on the face of it, a relatively mild gripe about one. Could it be that you have a vested interest in another local con succeeding? Or perhaps, you're not a fan of the staff in question...
With friends like these, who needs Inari? 😼
