I mean, it is illegal, and on the downtrend.

He hasn't really been defending the acts, he has been stating that people do shit around the world...which isn't relevant of course, but he is trying to prove that folks discussing whatever should happen to Josh, is not relevant and shouldn't be discussed unless we actually have some power to do something about it.
"Horrible thing happens in country A, you are talking about it in country B, but doing no action to prevent it from happening outside of talking, therefore you are doing something useless"...something to that degree of logic at least. Just ignore him.

Thats just wrong. There is ample evidence that most girls of that age is not fully developed physically and thus not ready for sex, espescially not with a fully grown adult. That theres also a huge gap in mental maturity doesnt make things better just worse.
Its not about culture, its about the wellbeing of individuals, in these cases even more importantly children
All I can really say is to echo what Sloot said yesterday, "What an absolute fucking disaster." I'll be very curious to see what becomes of Method in the future, and how this time period affects esports orgs in general.
This is why I only talk game shit with guildmates, etc.
Not that it matters but just something people seem to forget or maybe don't realize:

Edit: Just to avoid any confusion/accusations and in case anyone missed it, this image was created in MSPaint in about 10 seconds. Not actually something Winter Blossom said. That's the point though.
Not that screenshots (or even photos or videos) can't be legit, just that they're super easy to counterfeit with minimal effort. With quality improving with effort/time, depending on how determined someone is to make them seem real.
Sure, maybe if it was just a screenshot or two that would be relevant but with this many people coming forward/showing screenshots? Along with the knife video? And the actual police investigation?
To paraphrase Asmongold (mostly to trigger people ): At a certain point if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, acts like a duck, keeps quacking like a duck... maybe it's a duck? Point is, if there is enough there to cast a shadow of a doubt it is in your best interest to distance yourself from the accused. Not shelter him or her.

Sure but at the same time anyone that posts a tweet, a story, an accusation and so on can just claim this happened and it'll instantly be believed. Are some of the accusations currently levied at this josh person true? Most likely. Are ALL of them true? Doubt that.
The police investigation one is the most telling, they have this video evidence on what happened on stream with the knife and did nothing. They did nothing on the other issue either. Not saying it makes the dude totally clean but it does say something. The guy is obviously a PoS.
If apology is a confess yeah. Bay and Sascha. I heard Josh has confessed but I've not seen any of it. But I'm gonna be honest and I truly believe he did the stuff he was accused for, but that's me and not proof. But method knew about other stuff in the past too.
I'm on my mobile atm but there is a sticky on wow reddit. Some streamers has written back to the allegations
