Title is in good faith: I have no idea of who the Try Guys are; I had not heard of them until a few days ago.

I’ve read some timelines of what happened. I understand that one of the four guys cheated on his wife with a co-worker, and now there is a ton of drama going on, and he’s been wiped from everything, banished, disowned, and the other three guys seem to be completely devastated.

To be clear: cheating is bad. If you cheat, you’re an asshole. You deserve to lose friends and your marriage. This Ned guy is a douche.

But the response seems…kinda nuclear? There are stories about cheaters in the news all the time, rarely with this much drama. Usually there is an apology, the person steps out of the spotlight for a while, and people forget.

What am I missing here?
