Netizens weigh in on Radiogad's post
Here are some reactions below,
@EMZO_001 said: “Shameless and disgusting. You wanted attention so you downplayed his emotions? What if he fell into traumatic disorder and breaks down because of what you said ?
You are a definition of "mean and cruel… There's a second way to this though. I suspect that this man feels guilty for what he did but he doesn't want to apologize, so he changed the narrative. I still don't believe his stanship anyway, it's just to clear the air.”
@OT_rhody_1 said; “You make 30bg curse me yesterday and insult me I no sure say u fit make heaven.”
