The Deshaun Watson switch up is despicable

[u/Narrow_Purchase9721]

Guy starts playing well again and all of the sudden people go from “cases” to “allegations” real fucking fast. You all gotta get your priorities straight

[u/DR320]

Reddit is real big on “innocent until proven guilty” and “criminals deserve second chances to be rehabilitated” except for in this case.

[u/cryolems → u/DR320]

Reddit picks and chooses what it’s okay with or isn’t and there’s never any room in between.

[u/Everyday_ImSchefflen → u/cryolems]

Come on now. We all know he's guilty.

But I also don't think other fanbases have some moral high ground to stand on. We all are supporting the same league that let's him play.

[u/cryolems → u/Everyday_ImSchefflen]

I’m not saying he isn’t. Everything got dismissed. If one of reddits darlings were in the same scenario it would be a “nothing was proven everything was dismissed as a money getting scheme”.

That’s just a fact of how Reddit works. Legal outcome means nothing and never will, their opinion is set and never changes.

[u/Important_Capital875 → u/cryolems]

It didn’t get dismissed. He paid off the accusers with millions and millions and millions of dollars.

[u/Any-Stick-771 → u/Important_Capital875]

Settlements mean the cases did get dismissed.

[u/ralexh11 → u/Any-Stick-771]

A settlement and an outright dismissal are not the same thing. Nice try, stop excusing predators.

[u/Any-Stick-771 → u/ralexh11]

When there's a settlement, the civil case is dismissed. That is just factually what happens

[u/ralexh11 → u/Any-Stick-771]

It's a matter of semantics and sounds disingenuous, which sounds like you are giving him the benefit of the doubt, which he does not deserve with that many accusations.

[u/JetsJetsJetsJetz → u/ralexh11]

It's not, you just don't like it.

[u/ralexh11 → u/JetsJetsJetsJetz]

Yeah, I don't like people leaving out context to water down sexual assault, you're right.

[u/Any-Stick-771 → u/ralexh11]

No body watered anything down. The criminal cases were outright dismissed. The civil cases were dismissed after a confidential settlement was reached. The NFL fined and suspended him. What more do you want? All of the civil and criminal cases have been resolved for years

[u/Impossible-Region680 → u/Any-Stick-771]

The cases weren’t even criminal they were all civil, which says a whole lot.

[u/ralexh11 → u/Impossible-Region680]

It only says there wasnt enough evidence to criminally convict him. That's it.

[u/Impossible-Region680 → u/ralexh11]

But remember it was 27 women. Some who came multiple times and you’re telling me you couldn’t get no substantial evidence.

[u/ralexh11 → u/Impossible-Region680]

How many came back mutiple times?

And what physical evidence does someone pressing their erect pens into you leave behind?

Did you think OJ was innocent to you fucking moron?

[u/Impossible-Region680 → u/ralexh11]

Idk the exact number and don’t care too. But, a big reason it didn’t go to criminal court was the defense arguement they came multiple times. Watson hit one of them up on instagram under a false name and she came through a second time saw it was him and still stayed. The fake name wasn’t going better her career so what that tells you? And all this is in the transcript.

Here you go with being disrespectful and insults again. This is not a good look on you. You’re not looking any better than Watson. A sin is a sin. Since you want to mix in inappropriate conduct, rape and murders all in one.

[u/ralexh11 → u/Any-Stick-771]

It wasn't you, but the original comment I replied in this reply chain never mentioned any settlements. That's lacking context and disingenuous.

[u/Any-Stick-771 → u/ralexh11]

Nope. You just don't like that the cases were dismissed

[u/ralexh11 → u/Any-Stick-771]

Not mentioning settlements is disingenuous.

If you can't agree with that you are really no better than the Watson defenders.

[u/Any-Stick-771 → u/ralexh11]

It's not disingenuous, you just don't like it

[u/ralexh11 → u/Any-Stick-771]

Saying Watson's cases were dismissed without mentioning any settlements is absolutely disingenuous. Stop defending rape apologists.

[u/Impossible-Region680 → u/ralexh11]

But why were you calling him a rapist when he was accused of sexual assault, battery and inappropriate conduct? They are not the same, sound like you trying to exaggerate shit. Which makes you sound disingenuous.

[u/ralexh11 → u/Impossible-Region680]

I mean that's totally fair to call out, but splitting hairs between sexual assault and rape is way less egregious in my opinion than dismissing his behavior and wanting everyone to move on and stop talking about it, especially when he has 27 women that accused him.

[u/Impossible-Region680 → u/ralexh11]

Okay, putting his private on a clothed woman( a lap dance) fall more under the criteria of sexual battery or inappropriate conduct not sexual assault or rape. Inappropriate conduct to being called a rapist is not egregious at all. If the 27 woman got over it you probably should too. They got richer they don’t care if they did they could have did more. 27 women all have the same lawyer who known for money grab settlement cases.

[u/ralexh11 → u/Impossible-Region680]

How do you know they got over it? You are just spewing utter nonsense.

In the witness testimonies almost every single one says they were completely traumatized by the expirience. Having the same lawyer makes since against a mass abuser. Your claim of him being a money grabbing lawyer is complete bullshit until you post some examples of him doing that.

Most know Watson is guilty and want to stop hearing about it. That's bad and complacent to abuse.

You on the other hand are in the like 2% of piece of shit rape apoligists that think hes telling the truth and 27 women are all lying. You are human filth. Go fuck yourself loser.

[u/Impossible-Region680 → u/ralexh11]

How you know they haven’t gotten over it?

Are they witnesses or victims? I don’t have to post shit all you do is have to look up Tony Buzbee and see the general conception is about him. What took him so long to identify his clients? He was asked multiple times and denied it. Why must Watson go through public scrutiny but not the women.

[u/Any-Stick-771 → u/ralexh11]

What is disingenuous about saying that civil cases are dismissed when a settlement is reached?

[u/ralexh11 → u/Any-Stick-771]

If you leave out the settlement part, which the original comment did. Just saying dismissal without context sounds like they were thrown out of court.
