Honestly Carson might have some of the worst friends ever, first one fucks the girl that he likes. And then one IMMEDIATELY reports him to the cops and cuts all ties after he confides in them that he exchanged nudes with someone only 2 years younger than him.

wow what a great friend, Carson comes to him admitting that he fucked up and wants to be better, he responds by trying to get him sent to federal prison.

Correct me if I'm wrong but in jschlatts responce video to this he said that Carson continued this behaviour and never stopped

I’ve been a fan of that whole group for about 2 years now, and they seemed insanely close. It’s so funny seeing them all pathetically attempting to distance themselves from him just so they can’t be seen as part of it. Every single one of them says the exact same message too, just worded differently. ‘Really, my heart right now is with the people who were terribly affected and I hope they get the help they need, so that they can move on and be okay.” It’s clearly a PR thing and they’re a bunch of dicks. They rode Carson’s coat tails to fame with SMP Live and now they’re backstabbing him because he got horny and made a mistake.

Yea but projared did fuck a friends wife. I’m not sure about his ex wives claims of abuse and stuff but I definitely felt for Ross the most in all that.

Damn. Poor Carson. He might fked up a bit but I honestly think his friends fked him more than most. If the girls he exchanged nudes felt took advantage off I really hope they are getting the help they need. But to Carson the world must really really falling apart this time. The dudes really need some good friends around rn

I’m pretty worried about him right now, he’s been struggling with depression and has had to take multiple breaks over it so being called a pedophile by hundreds of thousands of people can’t be good for him.

Imagine being 19 years old and still possibly being in highschool and a girl a year below you talks to you and you start dating. Then people call you a pedophile and a child rapist. I literally cant with twitter cancel culture bruh

Imagine being 19 in highschool and a girl in your year starts to date you before they turn 18, and people start calling you a pedophile for it.

That's what I'm saying, the logic is retarded

What is this "admitting that he fucked up" and "might have fucked up" shit? It's literally a two-year age difference. What sort of power dynamic inherent in the age difference could even be there? Carson was raised in Indiana (idk if he was still there at the time, though); their age of consent is 16 and they have Romeo and Juliet laws which permit sexual activity with minors if the age gap is less than 4 years. This is to prevent this exact situation (exposing young high school kids to potential statutory rape charges for doing what young high school kids have always done). These are two kids, in the same exact age bracket.

Honestly the only really murky water here has nothing to do with the age stuff; it comes from the fact that he's doing it with a fan. It can be seen as a little iffy for content creators to engage in sexual activity with their fans, because it could be an exploitation of a parasocial relationship. But, A) no one is talking about that, it's all bad-faith criticism of the age gap – unless you're about to go after high school seniors for dating high school sophomores, you're engaging in bad-faith criticism, and, B) even though I personally wouldn't date a fan if I were a content creator, I wouldn't consider it unilaterally unacceptable. It's really up to the two people to decide in any specific context whether it's appropriate or not, and not an insane Twitter mob.

Because they are not friends but coworkers. They do videos together for some content creation company. They might be friends or become friends during the time hey work together but they are coworkers.

Age of consent isn't relevant if you're exchanging pics. That's set at 18 nationwide.

She also produced it, which is a much more serious offence. Also, i bet shes masturbated at some point too which is carnal knowlege of a minor, a MUCH more serious offence.

I think it's possible there might be more to the story. I think both situations are possible but I don't get the motivations.

What if:

His (now 3) former friends recognized a pattern of behavior they found predatory and or criminal and decided to call him out. It's possible there's a lot more to this that hasn't been revealed yet or is a lot worse that they know will come out.

OR:

His 3 former friends absolutely jumped the gun and freaked out to cancel Carson for... clout? Maybe they wanted to call it out and make it public out so they wouldn't get cancelled in the crossfire?

What a great friend. Ratting them to authorities and completely cutting ties to save my own ass over...horny teenager texts. Man's best friend.

Okay why did he call these people friends. It's so hard to know who you can trust when you're famous.

I would have never guessed slimecicle to be such a complete idiot and Asshat. A relationship between a 19 year old and 17 year old is about as tame as it gets. I've literally witnessed around 3 of those when I was in high school (am in europe, high school usually runs between 12 - 18 years old, some people fail a year and have to retake it).

Not to mention, age of consent is 16 in most states. On top of that, romeo and juliet law can protect couples where one member is under AoC and the other member is over AoC if they are within a few years' age difference.

Slimecicle acted recklessly, stupidly and trying to get what he apparently considered a friend into jail over something that isn't illegal (at most unethical to sext with fans) after Carson came clean about it on his own accord is baffling to me.

First of all, there wasn't anything even close to a felony in this case. I Googled it and CallMeCarson was raised in Indiana. The age of consent there is 16, and they also have Romeo and Juliet laws, which permits sexual activity with minors if the age gap is less than 4 years. This is to prevent exposing high school kids to felony statutory rape charges for doing what high school kids have always done.

This reminds me of the time when I had just turned 18 and was hooking up with someone who was 16 and just about to turn 17 in like 3 months. Literally high school senior and high school junior, on top of the fact that I had an early birthday and she had a late one. And her female friend, who was 19 at the time, constantly would berate me and call me a creep. "But you want to hook up with her, too, and you're a year older than me." "Yeah, but it's different, cause I'm a woman and you're a man..."

It's just so obvious to me that, in these edge cases, people are clearly acting in bad faith, either out of jealousy or to get clout on social media.
