Wrong approach. It's not really about the women in this case so attacking them on social media is foolish and leaves you open to attack. He said that and was immediately clapped back by a cac who can label him a woman hater or whatever to deflect from the point bruh is making.
Ppl should only be coming for BUZBEE in Deshaun's defense, otherwise the narrative might spiral out of control and those #believewomen and "toxic masculinity" movements will pop off again based on bogus accusations and lies
That didn't stop them before....
hmmm......I wonder what Ray & Deshaun have in common, that they don't with Chad....

Was Ray Rice a more well known player as well? Yeah he was. Shit his name is still more recognized than Wheeler. I'm not denying the existence of biased coverage when it comes to these issues but using literally one of the leagues most popular players whose name has been in the media all off season vs some random lineman nobody gives a fuck about ain't exactly the best case study for attention grabbing stories because I can point out a few well known players who've also had similar issues ignored by the media after a few go rounds.
Now if you were to talk about how the media went quiet after a few days on that old Peyton Manning story or how that incident with Brett Favre is barely mentioned at all from his time with the Jets you have a point. But using Chad Wheelers level of coverage to someone the NFL was using to be one of the new faces of the league won't stand up under scrutiny.
And that's exactly (one of)the point he was making.
Shouldn't matter if it's a star player or the 53rd player.

If we being real. It does.
It shouldn't be we all know it does. We know that if Lamar Jackson fucks up its gonna draw more attention than Ryan Fitzpatrick

I wish there was a universal black men discord or group chat where we'd talk about how to go about these things on social media and staying on code in general.

Nope. The media was SILENT on Rice until the video came out months later.
No the fuck they wasn't.
Until late summer that year all we saw was Ray dragging his fiance outta the elevator. That was more than enough for ESPN and whatnot to be on him.
Then when the video of what happened inside the elevator dropped they was on him some more.

Nobody knew who Greg Hardy was before his domestic violence case. That is the only reason I recognized him

Subjectivity.
Sexual assault can range from something as extreme as rape............to something as minor as grabbing a chick's hand or arm as she walks by you.

It actually is about the women if they're part of these lawsuits and making false/misleading accusations against him.

He saying trying to go at them is not gonna work.
That's still not a middle ground. A middle ground is a gray area. What you described are all instances of unwanted touching which don't fit in that gray area as they're all instances of unwanted touching of someone else's body

Yeah, but to go from unwanted touching to sexual assault is still a stretch.
Unwanted touching could be tapping someone on their shoulder.

they talking about sexual touching lol cmon bruh
Cmon what?
@deadeye is right in this case. Neil Degrass Tyson had some chick a few years ago trying to hem him up cause he put his hand on her shoulder when they took a picture.
