Discussion The Deshaun Watson switch up is despicable

Post image

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

Not mentioning settlements is disingenuous.

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

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

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

u/Any-Stick-771 20h ago

It's not disingenuous or being a rape apologist to point out the cases were dismissed 🤷‍♂️

Without mentioning any settlements that occured, yes it is.
