When you've known a person for years and truly doubt they're guilty, it's completely normal and natural to want them to be innocent, want to support them emotionally, and stick up for them. I hate people's compulsion to jump into righteous avenging angel mode at every opportunity.

Weird because you seem perfectly fine jumping to righteous defense of sexual abusers against the "loudest people on social media" without a second look at any of the very real allegations.

Sigh. No, I'm defending Corgan for standing by a close friend and giving them the benefit of the doubt in spite of all the shit that's getting thrown at him (Corgan). He (Corgan) shouldn't be crucified for that.

He’s getting skewered for standing by someone with dozens of allegations of sexual and domestic abuse against them.

Let’s be real here.

And I'll repeat my comment from elsewhere in this thread.

Corgan is welcome to stand by Manson, but that doesn't mean he's immune from public opinion. Defending people who defend abusers doesn't have much of a distinction.
