    I’m no fucking predator or pedophile

    Well… If the person was a minor, and you weren’t, and you knew they were young and the messages were ‘leaning inappropriate’, you’re a pedophile.

    Also a predator.

    From the article, it sounds like he knew they were a minor and still leaned into the conversations. Why? Why TF would you even be curious about it?

    wop wop wop wop wop

    I have this feeling this is probably not the last controversy involving minors we will see shake out of his mustache this week. Justin Roiland had his empire also collapse from grooming. Guy is done.

      That’s why drake is done too? The guy who beat the shit out of a woman and tattooed it on himself? Drake the groomer with his new album? That done?

    Is anyone else bothered (but not surprised) by the fact that Amazon/Twitch agreed to cover it up for him? Seems pretty wild that they should be off the hook for working to protect his image after doing predatory shit like this.

    How quickly we went from “I didn’t do it” to “I did it, but it wasn’t that bad”.

      Wait for it…

      That didn’t happen.

      And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.

      And if it was, that’s not a big deal.

      And if it is, that’s not my fault.

      And if it was, I didn’t mean it.

      And if I did, you deserved it.

    Does anyone have a link to a source on the age of the kid? I’m wondering if I’m missing it. People keep saying she’s 17. Was that in one of his edits?
