A question about Turkey Tom

A question about Turkey Tom

I binge watched a bunch of art commentary drama videos on my day off and Im seeing turkeytom cover up (?) or ignore the actions of pedos and im confused as to why nobodys talking about it?

I was watching a video debriefing the Spoctortheory situation, how a bunch of other art commentary creators knew about this creator grooming a 14 year old and never saying anything about it. Turkeytoms name came up (Toastifys video Beyond Ponder's Silence: The SpoctorTech Conspiracy timestamp 35:33) and there are a few dms of turkeytom talking to spoctor about the situation, as well as Spoctor mentioning that Tom dm'd him about it (All before the allegations came out). Turkeytom then proceeded to tell Toastify he had ZERO recollection of this ever happening, which seems pretty odd to me? If you knew about a large youtuber grooming a 14 year old wouldnt you look into it a little more?? But there wasnt enough evidence there for me to really be suspicious, and the creator of the video said that its plausible that hed forget it, so i brushed it off.

Anyways I was checking up on just a robot to see what content he was posting, only to see he posted a video about turkeytom covering up / defending the actions of a groomer. It made me laugh really hard (For context, JAR is literally the king of defending groomers, lost his career over it) so i clicked on it. Unfortunately JARs editing style actually makes me want to rip my eyes and ears out of my head but the general gist of it is that he was defending this groomer by the name of ZapTie. Theres a lot of people saying he made a video defending Zaptie, I cant find it but i can find old videos of Zaptie on his channel that he hasnt taken down. The claims actually seem to have some merit to me, even if the creator calling him out for it is incredibly ironic.

Sooo I could kind of brush off the first situation with a side eye, but now theres another? Im really only bringing this here because i think theres potential for further look into this topic, but considering the sources are so..... iffy..... Im not really sure.

Sorry this post doesnt have more info, unfortunately im too employed to do any more research into this subject but I wanted to see if anyone else noticed the same thing with this particular creator? It seems to be a pattern, a pretty concerning one at that. I don't know if TurkeyTom knowingly protected anyone. I'm asking why these situations keep coming up and whether there's more context I'm missing?
