    Btw, seeing how women sic their kids against their fathers after a divorce, manufacturing child abuse allegations with all the consequences that has for the fater only for it to be debunked as a ploy to get revenge, having so many people come forward now after the method drama makes one wonder how much of it is true and how much is just jealous chicks trying to sink their ex out of revenge.

    To all those for guilty untill proven innocent and for cancel culture, that means you @fwc577 among others. We are screeming for due process because we fucking understand murphy's fucking law. If a system can be exploited someone will exploit it. Is swifty guilty debatable, is activisionblizzard in their right to cancel him problely. However the presedent of just throwing someone under the bus with no due process just because someone went to social media needs to stop. You have griefence with someone deal with them on it or take them to court. Don't just shout into the eather for vigalanty justice

    Because how long will it take for cancel culture turns into Delete culture. Give them a fingernail and they'll take the whole arm. And don't say it doesn't happen google how reddit "found" the boston bomber back in the day, only to turn out it wasn't the right guy. If it can happen it will happen

    It's Blizzard's right to remove the NPC pending investigation to protect their own public image.

    The presumption of innocence doesn't mean you can't take the accused into custody or put them under arrest. And this is far more minor than that.

    If he's innocent, investigation will vindicate him, and I'm sure he has plenty of fans who will stick with him either way. There are plenty of skeptics in this thread and I'm sure plenty more amongst his fanbase. Other youtubers have been accused of far worse.

    Not talking about Blizzard alone. My first post mentioned that you shouldn't trust a corporation to stand by your side because they'll throw you under the bus at the slightest hint of a foul stench.

    But the situation as a whole on the various forums and platforms definitely doesn't reek of impartiality.

    There are cases where false allegations are done maliciously. Below is just a case of this, where the girls wanted to get a boy kicked out of their school because they did not like him. Even after it was proven false nothing happened to the girls and the boy spent some time in juvie and house arrest. False accusations that can be proven to be malicious should share the same penalty that the accused faced. Currently cases like this ruin the accused life even after it was proven the allegations were false while the accuser goes on as if nothing happened. Cases like this are rare as most times there is no evidence.

    This is not to say Swifty is being falsely accused, if it is malicious or even a misunderstanding but there is know way for me to know. Companies distancing themselves from Swifty is just business. I don't know if there is any evidence as there rarely is in these cases and it comes down to he said she said. I don't know any of the people personally and we all know on stream personas are different from their real life. I am going to remain neutral and wait for either an admission from Swifty or an investigation concludes. Either way I don't watch him and only heard about this while watching some Asmon at work.

    This is an email that was sent to OriginPC executives from Koozy who was an employee for OriginPC over the events that happened to Nano_Kitten while at Swifty's house.

    Nano_Kitten posted this to her twitter along with other stuff because she's mostly bothered by the fact that Origin PC did nothing about it. Go read her full story about how they handled it when she worked for Origin PC and Swifty would be coming for a visit.

    Scream all you want for due process. It's a colossal failure in America. Capitalism and Democracy hate the Law. It's why both are constantly trying to change it. The law is flawed as fuck and cannot keep up with current times. For fuck sake, the basis of our law was drafted over a hundred years ago.

    Normally i think everyone is intitled to a fair shake. But you preaching vigalanty justice i hope the mob spares you the same amount courtesy as you are showing now when the inevatably come after you, which is none

    Funny thing is, Alot of the allegations made against others on the list have been proved wrong.
    One came out and said she made the allegations because "The person was Rude to her so she wanted to make him suffer"
    Another came out and said she Accused the guy of rape because when they had sex "It wasnt satisfying"

    This is the kind of cultural that is a problem in this day and age because the biggest thing it does is make it difficult for the REAL victims The ones who actually, have these things happen to them. Its a case of crying wolf too much.

    The other problem it has is on the internet Your guilty till proven Innocent, Like in the case of Projarad

    Also I find it odd that you claim you want a middle ground but then you choose cancel culture... If you make that choice, guess what, you don't go for middle ground. How we achieve middle ground is simply by supporting the middle ground. You don't jump to conclusions and you wait for information, or better yet, let people involved deal with it and don't get involved and just see what happens if you are that interested.

    Also, Cancel culture isn't a topic of that it "can be toxic" it IS toxic... because it's all about cancelling people due to allegations.
    There are still people who call Johnny Depp a liar to this day.

    And both sides are toxic. Cancel culture is toxic because, as you said, many people are guilty until proven innocent. But as I said, for the most part, people are incapable of creating a middle ground so when cancel culture isn't happening then instead victims are called liars. Though SOME good has come of cancel culture, such as Kevin Spacey and Harvey Weinstein being exposed.

    Thankfully, Johnny Depp won a $50 million lawsuit against her and she was fired from Aquaman 2. I agree that it should be innocent until proven guilty but unfortunately, most people in the USA just rarely ever want to believe victims especially if they're men.

    But that's the same reason that people do the same thing. Most people don't like standing near foul stenches. Now, once the foul stench goes away people typically come back but still. It shows more about them, than the stench.

    I do understand why companies cut ties with public figures asap (again, sheep, pandering, et al.) than some random overnight cleaner but still.

    Lets not pretend removing the NPC is not a big deal at all.

    Removing the NPC sends a message to the public

    And is not the message:
    -This is just normal procedure to defend the company. Nothing personal kid

    This sends the message "he is guilty" and Blizzard knows this full well...but guess what...they dont give a flying F about him
    This is proof companies dont care about you...and only care about what you bring for the company
    Did you saw how fast swift was thrown under the bus by blizzard.
    Yes,
    Faster than a global cooldown.

    To everyone whining about "Innocent until Proven Guilty"

    This is a function of law that protects people in many countries, not all, from imprisonment by the government over crimes they've been accused.

    THAT'S IT.

    In the case of Swifty. Blizzard is not the government. Origin PC is not the government.

    Blizzard removed his NPC

    Origin PC removed his sponsorship

    Innocent until proven guilty plays absolutely no part here. These are private organizations that can do what they please. If you don't agree with this, then you're un-American and anti-Law. If Swifty is TRULY innocent and these horrible people have ruined his oh-so-precious millionaire life that allows him to play games 24/7 in a streaming house, then he has his own functions in American Law and can file a lawsuit for defamation. If he's TRULY innocent, he will have nothing to worry about during the discovery phase of that trial.

    With that said....

    To everyone whining about "Cancel Culture"

    If you despise cancel culture, then you're anti-capitalist and anti-democratic. Cancel culture is a product of Democracy and Capitalism. A large group of people say, hey, I don't agree with this guy and his behavior and he works for you guys, I will take my business else-where. These private corporations, in an effort to protect their profits, have decided that it is in their best interest to part ways with this person.
    I assume that by a "couple of things" you meant you trying to lecture people about things you don't actually have a clue about and being pettily dishonest, right? Because you're wrong about presumption of innocence even in context of criminal law alone. "Innocent until proven guilty" protects one across the entire criminal law process, it does not even remotely just "protect people from imprisonment by the government".

    On top of that, in some countries (especially those using civil law system) presumption of innocence has much wider application than just criminal law. It can be used in certain administrative cases, it can be used in certain labor law cases, it can be used in disciplinary cases. In some countries like Poland it's even enshrined in the constitution, thanks to which the Constitutional Tribunal there has an established line of interpretation that innocent until proven guilty isn't just a rule of handling of evidence but one of the key elements of public order of the country.

    Besides, let's look outside of just laws. Because the laws didn't just magically materialize themselves out of thin air. They are a result of widely held principles in a given society. In this case the principle of how treating one as guilty without first establishing it is wrong.

    I mean, come the hell on, you yourself pointed out how one can sue for defamation if they are inaccurately portrayed as a criminal by someone, which is another aspect of that general outlook. Yet for some utterly inexplicable reason you seem to be incapable of connecting the dots here. If the public perception was fine and dandy with people treating others as guilty outside of the blatantly wrong context you mentioned, calling other criminals wouldn't be covered by defamation laws and instead would be protected by free speech.

    And then you cover all that nonsense in sauce of "if you disagree with my wisdom you're ANTI-X". Which you then brilliantly repeat in your bit about cancel culture. But let me interrupt your grand narrative and blow your mind in the process: you can be against certain aspects, elements of examples of something else without being the entirety of that something else.

    Let's use the democracy as an example. You know what else is a product of democracy? Populism. Yet despite populism being a threat to democracy (because it tends to empower wanna-be autocrats) according to your wise wisdom being against populism in particular means one is ANTI-DEMOCRATIC. Same deal with capitalism and how it spawns crony capitalism, exploitation and monopolies if left unchecked.

    Man, this shit is so weird. I have so much I want to say, but it will all come across as not believing women.

    What I will say however, is how this is basically saying the Taka chick was actually perfectly fine with the stuff she's now calling out Swifty for. If someone is complaining about something on one hand, and now this Alexis person is saying that Jerrika said she was willingly "trying to force themselves on her for a triple kiss" and telling Jerrika "make out with Swifty because he has the hots for you"... fucking brain hurt.
