Diddy's behavior and the associated tapes likely stem from an arrogant belief in his own power and a desire to exert control over others.

“I would assume I guess if I'm going to try to climb into that guy's mind there's a lot of stuff about power that he gets off on like that's what the freak off is really ruined a fun term by the way that's what the freak off is is like I'm going to make you do this thing watching a tape is just I'm s”

DJ Vlad argues that Cassie Ventura is equally liable for the prostitution charges Diddy was convicted of.

“Cassie is guilty of the same prostitution charges Diddy was just convicted of.”

Tony Buzbee claims that a victim's occasional participation in specific acts does not negate the presence of coercion or non-consensual behavior under different circumstances.

“I mean, people have a hard time putting their their head around a situation where somebody might consent one day and not consent the next. And and there are people in this world that believe, well, you've consented once, so therefore you're consenting for life. That is not what the law says.”

Elisabeth Ovesen maintains that Diddy’s actions were part of a systemic pattern of abuse by men in power and that the legal outcome for Diddy will not change this underlying reality.

“It's not a Diddy issue. Like Diddy is a problem, but he's not the problem. Okay? He's not the problem. From Cosby to Combmes, Weinstein to Epstein, and everything in between, they're all different tentacles of the same beast.”

Esther Krakue argues that Diddy's legal team and the public are overlooking the systemic cultural issue of grooming and abuse of power by focusing solely on legal technicalities.

“The culture is telling women that actually you can be treated this way because you happen to be in this space and all all that keeps everything above board is the legality.”
