Well, that’s genuinely a bummer. Loved Lizzo’s music, personality, and confidence. Here’s hoping this is a wake up call for her and she gives a sincere apology

You don't know that she's done anything wrong. These are only accusations. Wait for more details before you change your opinion of a person.

These things are almost always one person's word against another's and you rarely get more helpful details. In the absence of a recording or something, I choose to believe the victims until shown otherwise. Imo our personal standards for judgement need not be as strict as those for legal action.

Sorry, the best the internet can do is immediately announce her as guilty.

"Believe all women!"

"Believe all victims!"

"...unless the abuser is a person that I like then I must rush to defend them because the victims are lying and we need to see all the evidence"

It's like the classic SA apologists but repackaged.
