    I remember some people saying, “nah, you don’t see it from his perspective, if your son’s life was in trouble and you owned the platform, you’d do the same thing”

    I kinda hate that logic because it assumes I’d say the stupid shit enough to put myself into that situation. Not to mention his family’s life wasn’t actually in danger.
