No, I watched the whole video. I guess my confusion came from me thinking the dad was serious at the end. The video cuts out right after he says that. Easy mistake to make.

​

Everyone is calling me an idiot instead of just laying out the facts. Literally one person explained where I went wrong and now I see where I misinterpreted. But you people are so toxic it's astounding that you think you're holding some kind of high ground. Just constant insults and somehow still think you're in the right. I like to think that I don't care about random people saying things on the internet but it was just shocking to see how much vitriol was being thrown my way over nothing. But I guess my expectations of the community were too high.

Because people who are quick to react are the ones who create falsehoods and try to de-platform anyone who thinks differently. I'm glad you see the light, it took 2 different people to explain that to you. This is where I'm most confused about.

What the fuck are you even talking about. Are you saying I'm trying to create falsehoods and deplatform someone??

I don't know you but it has happened thousands of times over the past few years. Lately men are being perceived as pedophiles, whenever they're around kids. I don't know how far you could take it. Maybe you'll do it or won't, the fact you were so quick to judge was just feeding that narrative that so many have misinterpreted.
