Awful lot of comments here pretending he didn't rape his sister. I wonder why.
Edit: I love that the replies I'm getting literally prove my point. Real repulsive shit.
There was a series of three tweets and no follow-up. I wouldn't necessarily assert it so strongly.
... she's talked about it multiple times for two years. Sort of a gross look to pretend a victim hasn't discussed being a victim on multiple occasions. Do you work for his PR group, or are you just a toxic fan?
What the hell? How about leaving such matters to courts? While terrible if true, I'll hold of judging until something is proven. It's too easy to ruin someone's life with false accusations.
Huh?
What's the question? His sister has talked about him raping her multiple times. But since he's got a lot of sci-fi weirdo fans that sweep that kind of thing under the rug for him, he hasn't really had to address it.
Most of the comments in this thread are about "I mAgINe if AI Did IT?"
Oh. I just hadn’t heard about it. Fucked up if true . Searching for his name now just talks about current news. Wikipedia holds nothing. Do you have a credible source for this?
Literally Google his name and the word sister. Not only will articles come up, but her original Twitter threads do too. Starts in 2021.
So no proof? Just tweets?
...from the victim. What a shit thing to say. But I guess hero worship tends to make toxic people look the other way on rape pretty often, so I shouldn't be surprised.
As someone who has been falsely accused the assumption of guilt is unfair. Tweets are not evidence.
lmfao. Flat out do not believe you.
I'm not sure if you care, but you are being very hypocritical.
... By pointing out the fact their post isn't evidence? Hmmm. It's funny how so many "tech" fans will instantly dismiss rape allegations made by women, but immediately believe some random loser claiming they were wrongly accused. Almost like there's a systemic problem here.
I never said I believe them.
You either believe both the rape victim and the accusation victim, or you believe neither.
Only believing one of them is hypocritical.
I personally believe both of them to be some person on the internet who's words do not matter. I do not consider either of the two claims to be worth listening to.
Innocent until proven. Always.
Because its both irrelevant to the topic (unless that's the reason he was fired, which I doubt) and a mere allegation. Innocent until proven guilty.
