I really hate their friends in the video. They’re all aware their friends are piece of shit cheaters, and they find it funny. “Haha we’re taking part in destroying a woman’s life by helping her husband cheat, hilarious!”

[-] Alaik@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 weeks ago

I mean theyre both married. Not sure why you're focusing on just the one piece of shit.

[-] hactar42@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 weeks ago

In balance of power. Since he is the CEO he holds a position of authority over her. She could very well be in a position where she fearful of retaliation if she doesn't except his advances. I'm not saying that's the case here, but there is a chance it could be.

[-] Alaik@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

If my boss came on to me, I'm still not betraying my wife. I'll definitely collect evidence for a law suit though.

When I last read the story he was confirmed to be married but nobody knew anything about her. That’s why

[-] Taldan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

That's the CEO and CPO, not her friends. She was recently promoted, possibly related to things like this

She's making tens of thousands more per year to be complicit. I've seen people do much worse for much less money

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Dude I've audited Raytheon. I would like to validate every word of your second paragraph

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 1 points 2 weeks ago

CEOs don't have friends.

[-] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 weeks ago

I think some of them were just coworkers.

There’s coworkers and there’s CEO talking certain employees who are aware of his cheating, to the Coldplay concert

[-] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

And? They aren't necessarily friends

[-] Asetru@feddit.org 0 points 2 weeks ago

No sir, just because I was deeply involved in their private life and invited to an expensive event during my free time by and with them doesn't mean we're "friends". I barely know them!

[-] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

The owners of my last company took us to a baseball game in an executive suite. Me attending the game did not in any way, shape, or form mean that I condone anything they do in their personal life.

[-] Asetru@feddit.org 0 points 2 weeks ago

Did those owners also bring their secret potentially marriage destroying affairs to those official events?

[-] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

Is that relevant to whether or not attending constitutes condoning it?

[-] SLVRDRGN@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

I would not attend a concert if the tickets were given to me by my boss, who is openly going to cheat in front of me while I'm there. Is that wild to you?

[-] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yeah, that's wild to me. Their personal life has nothing to do with me. Especially since not accepting could have a negative career impact.

And it's not like the invitation said, "come to the concert and watch me cheat." How would the other employees know that would be what would happen?

[-] Asetru@feddit.org 0 points 2 weeks ago

No, of course it didn't say that. But of course he doesn't invite people over who he can't trust with that kind of information. So his friends, closer allies or whatever you might call it. Imagine inviting someone over just to have them spill the beans to your family afterwards because you had the wrong impression of their loyalties and values. No way the people that were there weren't in on it.

[-] onslaught545@lemmy.zip -1 points 2 weeks ago

Dude was cheating in a highly public place full of cameras. I think your assessment of the people there being part of his exclusive inner circle might be flawed.

[-] aoidenpa@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

What's wrong with that? Of course they will side with their friends. If my friend is scheming and shares with me, I'm in! Being partners in crime is such a strong bonding experience.

People who help others cheat are shitty people

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

Not if the friend is wrong. If they're really wrong then, I'll try to talk them out of it. If they're really really wrong, then I'll stop being their friend.

I don't like this kind of in-group/out-group clannish mentality -- that "right" is whatever the in-group decides, with no greater thought to what's like actually the best thing for everyone, whether they're in the group or not.

[-] dumbass@quokk.au 1 points 2 weeks ago

So, you'd help your friend cheat on their partner and still feel comfortable trusting them?

[-] AstaKask@lemmy.cafe 1 points 2 weeks ago

Nah. Better to just cut untrustworthy people from your life.

[-] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml -4 points 2 weeks ago

People who think ducking other people and require porking excludivity rights and that violating that egregious agreement is to be understood as "cheating" and that jt "destroys your life" are THE PROBLEM. Big capital P PROBLEM and please all of you duck off into the Sun already you medieval, knuckle-dragging, fairy tale believing, immature, uptight, toxic, purita-totalitarian, well poisonning, abscess-filled, fun preventers and your ball breaking accomplices!

[-] Salamanderwizard@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

That's a lot of mouth diarrhea to say you're a piece of shit who doesn't respect your partners wishes for monogamy.

[-] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Tell me you're a psychopath without telling me you're a psychopath.

[-] SinAdjetivos@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

"Cheating" isn't just violating "porking exclusivity rights", it's breaking whatever the commitments and promises you have made to others within that relationship.

I agree completely that the institutions of marriage and default of hard monogamy are a "Big capital P PROBLEM", but only because it prevents thinking and talking about what those commitments should be between the individuals within those relationships. Which inevitably ends up causing harm because it allows for the incredibly immature stance of "all relationships should be {like this}" without considering the wants and needs of those involved.

The problem with the couple above is that they are clearly, and publicly, being caught in the act of breaking the terms of some such personal agreement, however unspoken, and that makes one or both of them a lying, two face, cowardly, immature, piece of shit regardless of any overarching discussion about monogamy, but what else should you expect from a CEO?

The key takeaway is that your message will not land with anyone and will be counterproductive because you are conflating being a dishonest douchenozzle with general non-monogamy and people will resent you and your underlying message, however valid, because of it.

[-] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 weeks ago

I couldn't phrase it that constructively while also just "letting it out" I"m not trying to convince anyone just finding why I am so irked/annoyed at people calling the guy's main being "their life destroyed" by a fucking hug, as if they knew anything about their relationship, they're just assumed of course in their worldview that's "being destroyed", like wow, I don't want anything to do with any of that crap worldview !

[-] SinAdjetivos@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

If it was just a fucking hug or just this photo then I'd 100% agree with you, but watch the video that has been linked in this thread, they're


not subtle. It's such a grossly over the top "hand in the cookie jar" type moment.

Also you make a good point about the "the guy's main being "their life destroyed"" being an absolute shit worldview. I get sometimes just needing to vent, but you do understand the consequences and harms of this being your method of release right?

[-] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml -2 points 2 weeks ago

like no wonder so many married people are unhappy, even people I know personnally think this "sucks but is convenient" wow, that ducking blow

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

That's weird, you must be meeting drastically different people than me because most of my social circles are happy in their relationships.

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

It's art.

I don't agree with it, but it's beautifully put.

[-] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 weeks ago

well the other guy said it's

mouth diarrhea

so 🤷, I guess ... I shouldn't assume the meanest comment is right eh

[-] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

It is hotly debated, but poop does get displayed as art from time to time.
