I don't wanna waste a lot of time on this, but here goes:

I'm a firm believer that where there is a enough smoke, there is generally fire. There are enough accounts to conclude that at the VERY LEAST, Anti has shown a pattern of disrespectful behavior towards women in the scene https://twitter.com/MreSSB/status/1298420876338180096

So with that said, please don't mistake what I'm about to say as a general defense of his character. But in his case with the 16 YO girl, the point about whether or not she ended up telling him her age is extremely important. Intention matters and looks don't always tell age.

If he earnestly believed that she was an adult, it may still be negligence on his part, but negligence is a VERY different, and far less abhorrent crime than willful sex with a minor. If he's telling the truth, I personally wouldn't classify it as predatory

The only people who know this detail for sure are the two involved. Its entirely possible that he did know her age, but pedophile is a VERY heavy label to throw around, so please be responsible when using it, even there is a lot of valid reason to dislike Anti.

I think thats the gist of what Mr E was trying to get across. The point about "why would he do that and risk his brand" was admittedly pretty shallow lol, but his other thoughts have merit imo. Its unfair to paint him as crazy or as pedo defender from his posts
