    damn he’s so cancelled now /s

    IMO this is a nothingburger that only a small vocal minority of generally unpopular opinioned people are pushing, I would bet money nothing is going to happen.

    I have not seen any concrete evidence that would lead me to think so negatively of him like these comments I’m reading would suggest. We have a difference of opinion but I don’t think that justifies calling someone a pedophile for dating a mutually consenting adult.

      Seinfeld met her when she was a 17 in a public place and got her number. She was a minor. She wasn’t an adult. Say what you want about being “canceled” or whatever nonsense you want to say to frame it, but that is the very definition of grooming. Are you okay with the grooming of minors?
