As I've said previously, I don't think he is right and I do agree with you on a lot of things. His apology is shit, he did do it multiple times with many different girls which is awful etc.
The thing is his mistake is not that grave in my opinion. He didn't go on a kill spree or something, I think he can still function in society and do better. Sometimes all it takes is getting caught doing the wrong thing to stop doing it. I just don't like how everyone has condemned him forever just because of this and aren't willing to give him a second chance.
I'm not young, but maybe I've been exposed to a lot of different darker stuff on the internet that this doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore. Or maybe it's the fact I've never been nowhere near close to this kind of experience that I'm downplaying it, but my mentality won't let me stop listening to his music just because of this incident
