    yet again, not talking about the other allegations, which include rape, corroborated by different sources, as published by The Stranger on Feb 28th 2023. staying silent on that comes off like an admission of guilt. it does not sound like you have learned a lot, it sounds like you bid your time for a comeback like Louie CK and every other piece of shit in this business. and you realised your fuckboy days were over so you settled down, congrats. still an alleged rapist.

Sounded more like to me that the girl had a fucked up childhood and doesn't know how to say no to herself or anyone else for that matter. Let's not forget that this continued to escalate as Andrew became more famous. There's a correlation there.

    I feel like my generation grew up on a lie that hookup culture is totally fine so long as you're practicing safe sex, and the older I've gotten the more I realize sex is a very intimate experience that you maybe shouldn't just throw around on complete randoms. We should at least be understanding that the sexual experience has far more gravity than we thought.

I didn't get in any trouble, but I did have to soeak to the police, and forgiving her is irrelevant, I don't know when I'll be ready to take that chance again. I was a hostage in my own home with her. I may have avoided legal trouble, but 10 years later I am still alone, and it feels it will never end. This woman should be charged with something, both of them. Cheers to him for trying not to be resentful.

I sincerely hope you find a relationship that's genuinely joyful and meaningful for you. All the best.

    As someone who has almost had this happen to me, twice. The best advice I can give you is to call their bluff and pretend like you’re getting police involved. Both times I had started getting texts from friends saying “so and so is saying such and such”, so I immediately texted them that I’ve already got the cops at my house and am giving them my phone. Both times I was worried they’d just not say anything, but they weren’t very bright. Both times the girls replied flipping out, called me crazy and weird, which really bit them in the ass because no one that was actually abused would get angry and upset when their abuser says they’re turning themselves into the cops. Liars will though. One of the girls replied to a post I made that contained a screenshot of how they reacted, even had the audacity to try and play the victim AGAIN, doubling down saying “my abuser knows I’m terrified of cops”, which got something like 62 laughing reactions, and still to this day her Facebook sits dormant. She was real active before all that though. Both times were from girls who I had hooked up with only once, only to lose interest in them because they sucked at being a real human and had like zero social skills. Also, for obvious reasons, this plan doesn’t work if you’re an actual POS scum bag that knows for certain that loads of people have evidence of scumbag behavior. In which case, instead of pretending to call the cops, just straight up call them and turn yourself in loser.

    @@HughMungousSack I dunno, I'm not a lawyer. But my understanding is the more things you put in writing, or just say if a cop is listening, the more oppurtunities the lawyers have to twist you up. They can find inconsistencies, they can make you look like a liar, and it makes it harder for YOUR lawyer later on because you're removing potential defenses from their quiver every time you open your mouth. If you say something like "I DIDNT DO [insernt thing]!" in a text you don't think amounts to anything, 12 months later in court your lawyer can no longer make the argument that you did actually do [insert thing] if it somehow helps your case. Maybe it was an alibi, maybe that specific thing wasn't actually criminal and shows you really weren't doing whatever thing was criminal/liable.

This is a great example of how a situation that initially was handled between the two parties gets out of hand because of money and social media. Coming on strong, is cringe but its not abuse and its not illegal, its all about intent. She told him he made her feel uncomfortable, he apologized and it was accepted. He gets money, then boom the social media generation sees dollar signs. Dangerous waters we as a society are treading, very dangerous.

    "Hurt people hurt people... someone with a traumatic background isn't going to have sympathy for applying that traumatic pain to someone else, even if that person isn't the cause of what put them in that spot." Wise stuff right here. I wish I would have known this much earlier in life. I've dated women with traumatized childhoods who had absolutely no qualms with massively screwing me over. That's not to say that you shouldn't date people who are victimized, but you definitely need to keep your guard up.

    The hardest thing with trauma is understanding you are more able to hurt others now that you have been hurt, and to basically understand that the trauma gives you more responsibility to not repeat it. Often trauma is used as an excuse when in reality is a weapon and burden. You are hurt, damaged goods, and now have the ability and instability to hurt others as you repeat trauma cycles. So it might be better to stay away from people with unresolved trauma.

    At the time of the allegations coming out, as an avid Channel 5 fan and Patreon supporter I was pretty shocked to hear the allegations. I was excited to see his new stuff after his time off, But I’d admit I was a-bit unsure how to feel given all that came out and what we knew at the time. Hearing Andrew here just blew my mind. He brings the same level-headed commitment to truth and critical understanding to even his OWN darkest times, without trying to victim blame, or be angry and bitter about it. Although it seems very obvious this was in part a coordinated hit job by greedy lawyers, he still tries to show what HE can do better, rather than just poke fingers and be bitter. Whether you like or dislike him, going through what he did on that scale of popularity and on the cuff of “making it big”, It would be easy to understand why someone would simply hate the world at that point. Yeah I guess Im making abit of a dick-riding statement, and perhaps im bias as I have been watching and supporting him since the All Gas No Brakes days, but I respect the shit out of him for actually trying to make something positive out of such a horrible situation. In a digital space of clearly drawn lines, Im glad we still have creators who are above all honest, but also don’t turn their inherent grief into more pain and project it. I only hope that I can remain so level-headed going through such an ordeal at those heights.

    Before watching this clip, I was extremely concerned he was going to take a "no discussion" approach to things or maybe even slip into more reactionary thinking or tendencies. This is probably one of the best shows of accountability you can ask for. He knows he was in the wrong and has seemingly taken the steps to address it. The only way to know if he's rehabilitated for sure is to see where he goes for years to come. Actions speak louder than words.

  • @teacherlion
    @teacherlionАй бұрын

    People need to take accountability for their words and actions. If you give consent and have sex with someone you don't get to change your mind afterwards about it. People make mistakes all the time and have regrets. But that should not be the basis for ruining someone's reputation and extorting money from them. Own up to your mistakes, learn a lesson and be more careful next time. On the other hand, it is a lesson to be more careful about who you choose to have sex with too. Usually a good idea to get to know the person first. You don't know if they have mental illness or other circumstances that would cause problems for you later.

    The fact is that at least from his claim this hurt of someone was done unwittingly, due to him not being aware of her trauma. The implicit notion here because he is male and horny and because she has encountered abuse, that he is the culprit, when it seems to be some gray area of him genuinely not knowing her story and her not being able to keep boundaries. He made it clear that he would have taken her trauma into account would he have known. The pitchforks in our zeitgeist just show the vitriol and complete lack of regard for ruining of lives in current generation of men for whatever past sins, perceived or actual. The problem is that many with less of a social support network than Andrew would take much longer to recover as they rightfully perceive injustice for being ostracized on behest of someone's word. Perhaps that can be addressed by some consent form and video recording that the current guardians of the zeitgeist believe will improve foreplay or maybe we can all learn to take some responsibility for our actions like Andrew, but that would mean this woman would have to acknowledge the money grubbing attempt to collect on his success 2 years after forgiving for a faux pa that he had little knowledge of. Seems to be that those with a conscience are the ones that pay for mistakes of those that don't care and are ostracized with many choosing to kill themselves or worse. I don't have much sympathy for her after trying to collect. This is blatant exploitation and we all know it.

    I really hope this was as sincere as it came across, Andrew. I was a massive fan of your work via Hasanabi, and I consider you to be one of the greatest journalists of our generation. It was devastating to all your supporters when the allegations surfaced, although of course it was nothing in comparison to the pain felt by you and your victims. Andrew's message to men was the most important part of this video. 1/5 women are sexually assaulted in their lifetimes, so if you are hooking up with people you will absolutely come across people with traumatic backgrounds. Informed Consent is so important, and it is absolutely not a vibe killer to take a second to ask "hey, I just wanted to check in and ask if there's any boundries or triggers I should avoid?", "What do you like/do you like that?" "I want to be the best possible partner for you - assuming you're still down for this?" "Remember we can take a break anytime, just say the word." Honestly, showing care and empathy by checking in like this is such a rare trait in men that it's immensely attractive. A lot of people calling this girl money-grubbing - I don't discount the possiblity... but I wanted to share something from a survivor's perspective who has found herself in a similar situation. My abusive/sexually assaulting ex started to become prominent in circles we shared after years of no contact, including being covered in national media. I cannot describe the amount of trauma, pain and suffering that dug up - and yes, bitterness comes into the mix. Why do THEY get to carry on, be beloved and successful while my life has fallen to pieces as a direct result of the trauma inflicted on me? I did not 'cancel' this person, but when other allegations of abuse surfaced I anonymously gave my own account. This person was "cancelled", or in grown up terms, faced consequences. I could continue my life with my friends and colleagues without feeling horrendously unsafe that they might show up in my life. They moved on with their life mostly unharmed, but less in the public eye. But I completely understand the feeling of wanting to do something vengeful. In a different situation, or if I was in a less stable stage of my life I might have given into the rage - especially if I had supportive friends egging me on and other victims affirming me and my experience. Regardless... it sounds like Andrew has addressed his substance abuse problems and learned an extremely important lesson about power dynamics and trauma. I am a believer in restorative justice. I have the instinct that comes from being a survivor to disbelieve a cis white man. But to me, Andrew has stuck by his ideals. I really was expecting him to go down the cancel culture grift route in some form or another - so it is heartening for me to see his ideals carried him through this experience. Hurt people hurt people. Best of luck to everyone involved for their future.

    The real lesson is if you're gonna engage in casual sex with women make sure they dont know your real identity, your real social media, and try not to meet them in your home or your car. Either meet at a hotel or their place. Sure it can get expensive, but yeah, casual sex can be expensive And if I was famous I think I'd have to be crazy to have casual sex with strangers.

Don't pressure people into sex, pay attention to whether the other person is actually comfortable with what's happening. The lesson has never been "don't hookup because someone might try to take you down" it's "be respectful and aware that the other person is a human being". He seems to have learned that lesson himself as he matured, but the comments section is still victim-blaming as expected.

I don't see him walking anything back but once again, no apology will appease everyone. The only thing he can do is set an example moving forward and make sure he promotes healthy behaviors.

    Probably the best response I've seen to allegations like this. He was pretty honest. He admitted a PR firm "tried to make him look remorseful" with their TMZ statement. Nobody in this situation has really revealed what happens behind the scenes. They always just lie and do damage control. The lesson here which I hope young people learn one of these days is that hooking up with people you don't know is just a bad idea. It causes so many problems. Often for you yourself, not just others. You can hookup with someone at a party and then find out later they are a horrible person, or they have a partner they didn't mention who's after you now, or the person you hooked up with has been hooking up with a lot of people after being molested because their brain is messed up from it. Get to know people for at least a few months before sleeping with them. You don't want to make someone feel pressured like the girl in Andrews situation, or feel gross because you slept with someone who you find out is a really bad human being, or get taken advantage of by a charming stranger. Wait it out. Its the only safe way.

    Thing about stories is that there are always three sides to it: her side, his side, and the truth. I believe many of us have had bad missteps as single people meeting other people. It happens. That’s what being young and dumb is all about in the beginning. Those missteps are what give you the experience to make better choices down the line as long as you recognize it as your opportunity to grow. Past trauma is always tricky but there in lies the point: being honest with all of it and being honest with the person you’re spending time with about it. Know what you expect out of the first date and don’t deviate from that when it comes to intimacy. No one should feel pressured but no one with a healthful and happy mindset who genuinely wants to be protective of their self would allow pressure to influence the decision period. This is why it’s important to know what you expect out of the first date.

    this dude talks a lot of therapy speak but glosses over the fact that multiple women all complained about how irate this guy got when rejected(which makes women feel unsafe) and how coercive he was. dunce. also didnt mention the two women who claimed he raped them.

    I mean it's probably just impossible that they went with the same testimony while coming forward one after the other because that surely never happens and gold diggers that say "I saw your fame increasing" surely don't do their research. Not saying he is a saint, but this smells of hearsay and bs.

    You don't have to accept his apology, thats up to the victims. The only thing he can possibly do is lead by example now and in the future, if he has no more issues going forward then you can probably consider him rehabilitated.

    only thing is, Andrew is contributing to making our world a better place...and the person who tried to ruin his life, contributes nothing to our world outside of their small social circle...so
