It's not illegal, but it's still weird, creepy and potentially harmful and no amount of lambasting about "the problematic age gap discourse" will make it not true.

I find it preposterous that you're talking about "power dynamics" when the 25 year old in this situation, at the time, was a poor intern at The Young Turks (making $25,000 / year in Los Angeles) who has lifelong body dysmorphia from being overweight as a teenager. While on the other hand, the 19 year old in this situation was literally

Michael Jackson's daughter.
I mean, if anything, the 19 year old had more power in that relationship. She literally had 1,000,000 x more money than he did, at the time. He was literally a broke-ass boy toy to her. Do you not get that? Does six years of age make up for millions of dollars? And a nineteen year old who grew up in that environment is going to be very, very mature for their age.
tl;dr: LET STRAIGHT WOMEN HAVE BOY TOYS.
She consents. He consents. They were both adults. They were both mature. They are literally still friends with each other, on good terms. Please don't fall into the negative side of being parasocial. This is not even something worth talking about.

Liberalsocialist "coincidentally" created a drama thread at the same time that Destiny is trying to create drama with Hasan Piker for having sex with a 19 year old when he was 25 years old.
Liberalsocialist has a lot of posts that "coincidentally" align with Destiny. I think Liberalsocialist is a Destiny fan and constantly causing drama because of that.
Firstly, this post is not about Hasan, that's why I didn't mention him until someone else did and I had to respond.
Secondly, I hate Destiny. That guy literally platforms Nazis. I'm a liberal socialist, not a fascist.
Thirdly, what the fuck is wrong with you? Why do you always fucking come to my posts and just attack me? Literally no one does that, but whenever you comment something on my posts, it's always not only negative, but now also just attacking me.
You have a drama post every single day and people see that. Everyone sees that. I mostly ignore them. This is one of the few times that I comment on it.
Yet you’re the only one who constantly personalised it.
:same-picture:
Sorry, there are already five comment threads on :reddit-logo: about this topic. So I just consolidated the info.
You've successfully made this post about Hasan, when I never even mentioned him and we were going for hours without mentioning him. Congratulations.

Because he inspired it?

no its not. this is about 19 and 26 yo generally, not hasan specifically. im sorry all my brain cant come up with everything on its own and needs to see something to get inspired by it and go forward.

what? he inspired it? i saw the threads on reddit and started thinking, "is a 19 and 26 yo relationship good?" is that not valid?
deleted by creator
no it doesn't

Please don't pay attention to this. This post is not about Hasan, though his drama is what inspired it.

Because it’s not? It’s about 26 yo and 19 yo generally.

Everyone was discussing this without even mentioning Hasan until someone mentioned him and derailed the convo.

Way to twist the statistics. compare the number of comments mentioning hasan before to after this particular comment. only one person asked before if this was about hasan, to which i said no, but was inspired by his situation. that was it. we all discussed the issue. but this person had to fucking write a whole-ass novel about how hasan is not a pedo or whatever and now everyone is accusing me of being a destiny stan or a bit or whatever the fuck.

got it, so yall can comment on my post, but i cant respond. wow.

This post was inspired by Hasan but is not about him, nor his specific situation. I'm not going to address your other points because they're irrelevant to this discussion which is about a topic much broader than that.
Your post is not illegal, but it’s still weird, creepy and potentially harmful.
no its not
I mean, it kind of feels like you're trying to gaslight people that were in perfectly harmless and healthy relationships into thinking that they need to see themselves as somehow sick / dirty / impure / sinners. So yes, it could be harmful. If Christianity can have negative effects on people's view of sex, then secular over-policing and internet with hunts can have the same effect.
My entire post is about how I don't think 19 and 26 is healthy age gap.

It's not important, but Hasan Piker, Twitch streamer, had a short-term relationship with
spoiler
Paris Jackson, Michael Jackson's daughter
a few years ago. He was 24 and she was 19 at the time. People are trying to "cancel" him over this relationship. It's stupid.

Firstly, this post is not about Hasan. That's why I didn't mention him. He inspired it and made me go down this line of reasoning, but that's it.
Secondly, if it was Paris Jackson, it would be 19 and 26.

The other person is a loser who wants to make this about Hasan when I didn't even mention him.
deleted by creator
i didnt subtweet anyone. i didnt even fucking hint at this being anything other than a question and a statement. i made it clear, when brought up, that hasan inspired my line of questioning but that it isn't about him or his specific situation. this is about a broader issue but congratulations, you have successfully made it about hasan.
deleted by creator
it did get brought up and i addressed it. but before this particular comment thread, everyone focused on the topic, not the hasan drama that preceeded it. but this dude had to make it about hasan and now half the new comments are about him. if i wanted to post about hasan, i'd do it. i've done it before.
this is exactly why i didnt fucking mention him. i knew it would make the convo about him and not the issue i was talking about.

I have no idea nor interest.
