Dr Disrespect Banned From Twitch

[GearSolidMetal]

Unless I missed a development where that email was confirmed to be made up, we don't know for certain the email is a fabrication, which is a better word for the assertion, the one you're looking for, though I think most would favor the assumption it is at this point.

To be clear, I posted that email regardless of its authenticity as an explanation as to why practically everyone, both on the offense and defense of Dr.Disrespect, is assuming the minor was 17.

I've found no other source implying she was any other age.

Dr Disrespect Knowingly Sent Explicit Messages to a Minor, Former Twitch Employee Says

Streamer Dr Disrespect was banned from Twitch in 2020 over inappropriate texts he sent to a girl even after learning she was underage

www.rollingstone.com

As a professional corporation-endorced streamer, he's done, but he was done days ago and this new interview doesn't bring any new evidence to light.

“I recall that Dr Disrespect was made aware by the individual that they were underage during the conversation, after which he indicated that this was no problem and continued on,” the former employee says. “There was no confusion. Messages sent after this was acknowledged were no less graphic and in sexually explicit nature than before, and I think more than the categorization of ‘leaning too much in the direction of being inappropriate’ might indicate.”

Cory, a week ago - "Dr.Disrespect sexted a minor."
Dr.Disrespect, days later - "I had social conversations with a minor that leaned too much in the direction of being inappropriate."
Cory, today - "Dr.Disrespect sexted a minor."

Not sure how this is the 'Stick A Fork In Him, He's DONE' moment, when it wasn't days ago.

I find it curious how he uses such legal terminology in an interview - 'no less sexually explicit in nature than before' & 'more than the categorization might indicate.'

He could provide those vague details which were just repudiations of Dr.Disrespect's statement and backing up his initial accusation... while providing absolutely no new details of the 2017 'sexting' like the specific age the minor was at the time.

And I've still not heard any explanations for why Cody waited 4 years to drop these public accusations, and apparently there's still some evidence being passed along behind boardroom doors to get companies to drop him that have not yet come to light. It wasn't the accusation alone, and I bet Dr.Disrespect's public admition was to get ahead of it being made public.

And I tried to drop this thread a while ago, but it keeps pulling me back in - because this reeks of a hitjob.... and it may be 100% justified if the evidence comes to light, but even then its a question of WHY NOW? Why wasn't this leaked to news outlets immediately after he was banned from Twitch in 2020?

Bro…… give it up. Why go to such lengths to defend this loser?

Care to add anything substantive?
Any theories why this was sat on for 4 years?
Because that is a question very few are asking and no one has an answer for, and the Rolling Stone interviewer didn't ask.

This whole situation doesn't bring up any red flags for you whatsoever?

He’s a hugely successful streamer that generates a ton of money. A lot of shitty people get away with stuff for a long time for that reason. What we know is people have seen the texts and he even admitted to them being inappropriate. You’re defending the dude harder than he is himself. It’s comical at this point.

I'mma guess Beahm isn't the only person that's about to get revealed and a lotta Twitch streamers are sweating right now.

And never again pretend that you give a crap about protecting minors because you been dick riding this dude so hard you have internal bleeding. Time to rip down the posters and come to reality. Your boy is a creep. Even the quarter pounder is out at this point lol

You're implying you give a crap about minors, yet you're not at all curious why this took 7 years to come to light.

If he actually was 'sexting a minor' that's a felony, and you're also curious why this 'Cory' if that's his real name, has been silent on it for 4 years while this peophile may have been victimizing other minors in person, and not just over a chat app.

And you typed up your last post completely unaware of these giant holes in your argument.

Sit down. As always when you argue with me you prove I'm out of your league.

The red flags are for Twitch, though. They certainly weighed money generated over morals and ethics, like most huge corporations do. There's nothing I see that would lead to this guy's innocence. He was just a big fish with a lotta rope, and from I've been reading, he's far from alone. Not surprising, given that its format was supplying video game streaming content targeted at kids...which is usually created by adults.

This guy might just be the flicked cigarette that causes a forest fire.

What are you talking about, Gear? That article @offshore33 shared was the first thing we've seen from an official news source that clarified the most important two details that had gone unanswered. He emboldened all the key passages.

1. Was Doc "sexting" her? Not just flirting, which could be the most innocent interpretation of "veering into the inappropriate", but was he sending her outright sexually explicit messages?
2. More importantly, did he know she was a minor, and did he continue the above knowing this?

The answer to both was yes. Stick a fork in him. Doc's done as a public personality.

It's all a liberal conspiracy to target your favorite streamer. lmao

 

[GearSolidMetal]

The red flags are for Twitch, though.

Which paid out the full contract although.
You can't tell me there wasn't a morality clause that would have legally allowed then to drop him without paying him a cent.

They certainly weighed money generated over morals and ethics, like most huge corporations do. There's nothing I see that would lead to this guy's innocence.

'Innocence' is a legal term, and if they discovered the chat logs from 2017 in 2020 that means they had cold hard proof of guilt. Which leads me to believe the chat logs specifically were not legally 'sexting.'

It'd be a bigger money issue, to a corporation, than a moral or legal issue.

He was just a big fish with a lotta rope, and from I've been reading, he's far from alone.

This guy might just the flicked cigarette that causes a forest fire.

Hopefully they'll all be exposed, but with evidence rather than vague alligations.

And don't mistake my tone, you and I have always been good and I don't mean to seem combative with you. As much as it may seem like I'm defending Dr.Disrespect I'm trying to get the point across more than that there are many unanswered questions about everybody in this situation.
*Dr.Disrespect (accused)
*Cory (main accuser)

I think the issue here, is that he's not outright denying it. Instead, he's trying to massage it into legal theory. That's a rat's game. It would be one thing if we were talking about cheating on taxes or something, but when you're trying to make sexting minors "legally okay"(which it might be, without any significant followup), rather than denying it and taking issue with the accuser, makes him seem like a guy in pickle that he created.

Even if he's just a womanizing sleaze, it's not hard to put down the phone when you're damn near 40(and married with children no less) and realize that you're crossing lines with a young teenage fan.

But that's beside the point. "What Doc has done". What has he done? We don't know, exactly, just yet. However you feel about @jefferz's arguments, they are staked to the possibility she is 17, and that remains a possibility. You don't just bristle at that possibility, you are personally attacking and disparaging someone for assuming it. Why? Why are you determined to prematurely render judgement according to an assumption that she is younger? Again, this shows that you are no different than the person you are insulting: you are reaching conclusions based on assumptions when you don't know them to be true.

So you're wrong, and I just explained to you why you are wrong, twice now, but feel free to be a pitchfork-shaking hypocrite.

The part people really fail with media literacy here is that anonymous sources are usually not anonymous to the reporter (ie the verges story). A source that insists on being anonymous to thr reporter is very different and much more concerning since there was no way to verify the claims in that email.

No, pretty much everyone understands that. That isn't why it's lampooned.

As I said earlier, the value of an anonymous source is dependent on the publication and reporter. People tend to just dismiss them out of pocket for purely arbitrary reasons.

I'll note that the anonymous reports that helped give this kerfuffle legs have proven largely correct. The same sources many folks in this thread thought were bs...for reasons?

Do you believe the cynicism about anonymous sources in mainstream media began with this story and this thread?

You're like a baby.

I'm saying applying your cynicism about reporter X at publication Y to reporters A and publication B is nonsensical. Weigh each story and it's sources on its own merits, like i said, basic media literacy and critical analysis.

People probably dont remember or werent made aware that when he was banned from Twitch in 2020 Discord also de-partnered him. So more information is out there about his conduct that hasnt been probed.

A steady stream of 'sex pests' are outed in the live streaming and VOD influencer space yearly.
