As social media users reflect on the student walkout, Seinfeld’s support of Israel’s war in Gaza hasn’t been the only thing they’ve dug up.

        True, I was being hyperbolic. 17 is the age of consent in New York, so he was skimming REEEEALLY close to the line.

        What is the deal with hyperbolically claiming that Jerry Seinfeld, who dated a high school girl, is a pedophile?

        It’s still fucking gross. He was almost 40 and dating someone far less mature, rich, powerful, and famous than he was. A young person doesn’t magically grow up the day they turn the age of consent in their home state.

        Honestly same, it’s basically become code for “Person I don’t like.”

        Especially as it keep getting applied to people like Leonardo DiCaprio who’s “victims” are… people literally over the age of consent.
