the plurks and tweets and tumblr posts all like just accepting it as 100% truth and yelling at anyone who pointed out that the "evidence" was suspect at best

it's STILL not a good look to sleep with a fan, ever, and i stand by that

but i'm sooooo fucking sick of shit like this

queue this example being used for the next five years as to why all accusations are false and women are just lying liars trying to ruin good men's lives

Er, unless new info came out that I haven't heard about, I was under the impression it WASN'T fake, just not as dire as it was?

like, the person who "broke" the story was breaking it on behalf of the victim and they jumped to conclusions but the actual victim did NOT recant her story

Dan having sex with a fan is indeed not fake. what IS fake is the situation and the words used in the accusation

in fact dan has had sex with...lots of fans, if the various accounts over the years are to be believed

and it's also a prime example of why you should consider where your source is coming from, because the original accusation was on a subreddit explicitly for hating on the grumps

which is, yeah, definitely not a good look

fake in the sense of he never groomed anyone

he also released a statement about it

oh did he? I missed it

then again he primarily uses instagram doesn't he

i think it's on r/gamegrumps

yeah he's like barely on social media from my understanding?

he admitted to the relationship himself

so yeah, he's a dick, he should probably fucking use his head before he tries to pull shit like that again, the power imbalance is fucked, but he didn't fucking groom people

like it's fine if people don't like someone, there's plenty of reasons to dislike the game grumps but spreading shit about someone being a groomer and a pedo and then a million people immediately seeing those words and assuming it must be true is so fucked
