Actual Unpopular Opinions Thread

Kobe's is a rapist and Lakers org and their media friends absolutely protected his image.

He admitted in the apology that shes not a liar and understands she did not view the encounter as consensual. Literally his own words, so maybe more unpopular fact. Its why he was quietly kept out of the academy despite the oscar win imo, because his words are clear cut and noone wanted that smoke after the jerkoff of a retirement for Disney/ESPN/ABC during the hollywood scandal. Its possible he genuinely took the oppurtunity to express his side and to grow from it, but the fans who want to act like it never happened by repeating the same baseless smears from the media 16 years ago are dead wrong and I think its a part of his and the Lakers history that should be reckoned with. Yeah I'm a spurs fan but this right here is why I hate the Lakers.
