Infidelity does not equal abuse.
That being said, the accuser is now saying at least one other woman has contacted her with similar allegations.

I never said such a thing.

In his tweet he says he was single at the time but the text contradicts that.

His marriage broke up in 2018 so it makes sense that he'd say "things change". I don't see any discrepancy there, not that it matters.

Definitely. Emotional abuse, abuse of trust. To say nothing if you contract an STI or a pregnancy occurs, etc.

I've seen some interviews of Shia and he seems like someone who is actually very charming in person. So I imagine that goes a long way, if you can get in a room with a producer or a director and win them over, you're gonna get extra chances.

I remember seeing him on Hot Ones and the overriding impression I got of him is a guy who is driven by toxic masculinity, knows he’s driven by toxic masculinity, but who’s powerless to stop being driven by toxic masculinity. He seems intensely, unhealthily aware of how other people perceive him.

You’re supposed to learn how to behave around women as a child and a teenager. You should, by your 20’s, no longer be figuring those kinds of things out. Even if you’re a virgin and never been on a date, at 21 you’ve spent 12-15 years going to school or maybe even working around girls and women, you aren’t just discovering them at 23. What a weird thing to say.

My first thought seeing this was that if I had to guess one 2000s era SNL star who would be publicly accused of grooming a teenager, it would have been Armisen because we already know he’s kind of a huge shitbag to women he dates. Based on this it looks like there’s plenty of room for him to be a creep too.

Who was they guy who barely lost a senate race when it came out that in his mid 30s he kept trying to date 14 year olds? I was about the same age he was when he was trying to date high school students and I briefly thought about how my also mid 30s friends would react if I brought a high school student to a group potluck or something as my "date."

Best case scenario is none of them ever talk to me again.

Seinfeld dated a high schooler in the 90s so people in the upper echelons of New York's comedy circle are probably just used to this stuff by now.
