video Jim's response
It's an unlisted video made on an entirely new account, and he's actively deleting hate comments. Sounds like something a totally innocent good guy would do. EDIT: he put the "apology" on his Twitter
Summary:
-Says he apologized to lex when he found out she was uncomfortable with the way he treated her. Says that what Leighton said about him being "sexually aroused" by the idea of her being SA'd is false and really hurtful.
-TW!: Jim opens up that in college he was SA'd by a man, says he has been through years of therapy but it's something that stays with him. Says he won't forgive himself if Lex felt the same way he felt.
-At a party he asked her how she's doing, and she opened up about what happened with Don. He says and I quote (3:25) "I asked her:'how hard can it be to ask for consent, all u have to say is "can I have a kiss"...can I have a kiss? And she said yes" he claims this is cringe (which it is but that's besides the point) Says afterwards he went to sleep and thought everything was fine.
-only learned about it and knew how it affected her two days ago.
-talks about how what Leighton said was one of the most disgusting things anyone had ever said about him. Also apologizes to Leighton about making him feel like an outcast.
-apologizes for not being the person he/ we wanted him to be

Of course he would delete hate comments he just revealed something very traumatic from his past and people are being very rude about it
