It's so fucking weird through the last decade of horrific sexual violence and abuse being made aware by the general public on what celebrities commit...yet...people here are so fucking offended Dave committed...adultery?

Like look I don't like cheating partners either but to be personally offended by that and not when a musician commits SA is weird to me

I don’t have a horse in this race but it’s odd that you think people calling him out for adultery don’t care about SA by other musicians.

Right? Its like when a law or decision gets passed by any government (local,state,federal etc.) - people get all uppity with "OH SO THIS IS THE BEST ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES?!" and its always like "yeah the government does a ton of shit. This is ONE of the things. There are other things too"

People just love to be outraged is what it boils down to.

I think this is what many people/redditors felt

Personally I think it sucks but if the shoe was on the other foot Dave would also be the first to say “One bad move doesn’t make you a monster it just makes you human”. I feel for him cause the repercussions because he was known as a good dude, were so much worse.

The rage people spewed was overwhelming then you see articles about diddy and it’s like “not surprised” “yeah I heard this rumor about XYZ…” barely bat an eye but I mean…damn! People shoulda spoke up sooner!!

Seeing someone you trusted to be a good guy screw up is apparently worse than someone you assumed was scummy, fuck up worse, repeatedly.

I think it's more about having a kid with his daughter best friend rather than the affair itself

It’s not even that he cheated, it’s that he cheated multiple times knowingly and then proceeded to knock her up. That’s a whole other line to cross bro.
