How can you be disappointed when you don’t even know if it’s true?
I can actually explain why. Refraining from judgment causes the human brain to experience cognitive strain, so people tend to settle on a judgment even without evidence, in order to reduce the emotional stress caused by being undecided between two extreme possibilities. We feel insecure when we haven’t yet made a decision, because we are exposed to attacks from both sides. By aligning ourselves with one side, we gain allies and also gain the ability to disregard the humanity of our enemies. This is a universal weakness to human rationality, and lawyers are experts at exploiting it.
Because the allegation is either true or false. Either it happened, or it didn’t. If it didn’t happen, then there’s no reason for you to be disappointed in Jay Z.
And what stops him from still being a good dude? It’s like you’re having trouble wrapping your head around this being simply an accusation. You’re basically saying everyone who associated themselves with Diddy is a bad person without knowing the depths of their relationship.
I’m not gonna slam, but it’s disappointing to hear anyway. I never idolized him, but still thought he was a good dude.

It’s disappointing just to hear an allegation. How is that confusing for you?

I have no judgements either way so far. Just saying it’s disappointing to hear an allegation like this
Your grievances should be directed to the allegations alone and not the one being accused.
