He admitted to texting a minor, he's getting a megathread for the fallout

โ€‹

his response to the accusation with โ€Jake seriously... I get it, it's a hot topic but this has been settled, no wrongdoing was acknowledged and they paid out the whole contract.โ€

His response to the accusation and his response blowing up, "I didn't do anything wrong, all this has been probed and settled, nothing illegal, no wrongdoing was found, and I was paid."

Midnight Society, the company he co-founded, announcing that they are dropping him.

A bloomberg article written about the situation, saying they asked 3 twitch employees to if it's true. they all said yes.

Dr Disrespect admitting he did it, but tries to downplay it. despite him speaking with out a filter, he tried to edit out the fact he spoke to a minor, forgetting that you can see a tweets edit history, so he edited it back in

both versions of the tweet will be here, they are both super long and would make this reddit post a lot bigger than it should be

โ€‹

currently we are at his downfall, as people who were once defending him (outside of his fans) are now on the side of him attempting to groom a minor (notably Actman)

it can't have been -that- bad I guess if it was all kept under wraps this long and no crime was committed

Yeah I dont get it. Theres been pedos with waaaayyy more darning evidence and waay more corporate money behind them. Just inappropriately texting a minor? Without any criminal charges? Twitch was probably deathly afraid of yet another p-do scandal potentially brewing for them to pull the ripcord to quickly and so aggressively.

Yeah i dont think it was Ian Watkins-tier or even something illegal. You can't brush that under the rug with an NDA, the police would have to be involved or else Twitch would risk criminal charges itself.

I think they just didn't want the negative publicity.

Idk if it was not that bad he would just share the screenshots I think. Clearly twitch is not above breaking the NDA. Maybe there's a payout in this for him if he lets them unilaterally break it.

If I had to guess the message is prob very vague like "sure see you at twitchcon" or whatever, which could be considered inappropriate if you want to take the worst view of it or for a corporate environment.

Yeah, sounds like it's not a big deal. If it's remotely into crime territory it would be a way bigger shitstorm (also for twitch)

Factor in the intent. The context of msg and words used is probably the issue.
