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.

      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.

                  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.

                  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.
