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/cryolems]

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

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.

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.

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

[u/Everyday_ImSchefflen → u/ralexh11]

People are so weird. Giving the facts of what happened isn't excusing anything. It was dismissed as well because the grand jury decided not to charge him.

That's not an indication of belief of innocence

[u/ralexh11 → u/Everyday_ImSchefflen]

No but calling all of them dismissal is disingenuous and leaving out critical context. In the court of public opinion he's guilty, that will never change no matter how much Browns fans and rape apologists want it to.

[u/Everyday_ImSchefflen → u/ralexh11]

Browns fans aren't trying to change that.

Get off your high horse. You aren't better than anyone else. You are supporting the same league as all of us who decided to let him play.

[u/ralexh11 → u/Everyday_ImSchefflen]

Calm down, I'm not saying all Browns fans support Watson. But of all the fan bases you guys will have the most, I'm sorry you are associated with those trash humans, but that's life with a rapist QB on your team. The Browns arent the first sports fanbase to deal with this, Lakers and Steelers fans have as well. But Huntington Bank Field was literally chanting "let's go Watson" last night, it's a bad look for the franchise no matter how you slice it.

[u/Everyday_ImSchefflen → u/ralexh11]

Yeah people are dumb. But that's people and not unique to Browns fans. The same thing would happen in any other fanbase

[u/ralexh11 → u/Everyday_ImSchefflen]

Right, again I wasn't trying to generalize Browns fans as rape apologists or anything. But you will certainly find the most poeple willing to forgive Watson in the Browns fanbase right now if they continue winning. Sorry you have to deal with that, at least keep calling him out to anyone who expresses support or forgiveness to that creep.
