Old guy here. I've come to enjoy watching leftist twitch on my second monitor while I work/slack off. While I've long been an advocate for Palestine, I've learned a lot more about both Israel and Palestine from watching Hasan Piker. Sometimes the streamer drama can get pretty annoying though.

On the other hand, a lot of my millennial friends from high school didn't really give a shit about politics back then. Now, nearly all of them are leftist. And if not, progressive lib at the least. Maybe that's just 20 years of me feeding them a steady stream of propaganda, but I think especially Bernie and all the shit that came after has pushed folks in my circle left.
but I am unsure whether I'd call him a predator (of course, language differences apply, too). That's just because I need words to express the predatory nature of people like Maxwell who prey on teens and YA.
What do you mean by this? Beahm was preying on a minor by sexting that minor and asking to meetup at twitch con. Are you specifically referring to people operating child sex rings? In either case, I don't think anyone else uses your ultra-specific definition. For myself, and I assume most others, pedophiles are merely a type of predator. For example, the show, to catch a predator, was about creeps sexting kids online. This is precisely what Beahm was doing so I don't think it's unreasonable to call him a predator.
Very true. I've seen no info regarding the minor's age, which honestly is probably a good thing. The victim's identity should be protected.
Twitch con was in California. And in the legal sense, almost an adult is a minor. So yes, this is a crime. And immoral. And worse than cheating. And yes, I'm ok with personally attacking pedos and those who defend them.
Also a lot of those states use age-gap/romeo and Juliet laws. In most states it's illegal for a 38 year old man to solicit a minor.
Raped at twitch con is better than raped in an alley? Jesus fucking Christ.
I'm guessing libertarian and pedo, you probably don't actually give a shit about Beahm.
So you agree that Beahm is a pedo? You replied to a person that does not think he is a pedo with "fair take". Maybe you replied to the wrong person.
The country is America dumbass. Age of consent is 18 in America. She was a minor, he was trying to solicit her at twitchcon. If you want to go the legal angle, that is a crime.
That's not societal definition, that's the clinical definition. But If you want to be pedantic, yes you are right. He's actually an ephebophile, which is still detestable and is still illegal, still immoral, and still very fucking creepy.
Sexting a child is wrong. How is that hard for you to understand?
Are you a Doc fan? Are you a pedo/ephebophile? Libertarian? What's going on here?
Speaking of ruining it for everyone... Paid Plex shares do exactly that for those of us using Plex for friends and family.
Pretty sure Trump is AIPAC's choice. Or they'll donate to both campaigns.
He admitted to sexting a minor. How the fuck is he not guilty and why are you out here trying to defend pedophilia?
No it's not. Beahm, a 38 year old man at the time, was sexting a minor. That makes him a pedo.
Frankly I probably would too. But bars are good if no one wants to host though. Also if you're into chatting with strangers they can be good for that. Dive bars are good if you want the bar experience for cheaper and/or don't want to dress up fancy. I generally just feel more comfortable in dive bars, the closest to a casual hangout experience as if you're hanging in a friend's living room without actually hanging out in a friend's living room.
