It's pretty crazy how "evidence" changes the way people think about things. It's almost like the events of this trial/scandal have, in a way, unfolded inversely over time compared to Lowtax's bullshit across the years, that's weird!

I agree, it loving sucks that there are people lying about being abused because it hurts the credibility of the real victims. Hopefuly justice is served in the end

Iirc its something in the like 3% range but the media loves to point to those examples because it's all owned by incredibly lovely people.

Yeah it's kind of nutty how both Lowtax and Amber Heard used the exact same playbook and both got away with their abuse for years.

You're all free to remain ignorant. But I like to be informed of the issue at hand. That's why I've researched the case extensively by glancing at a few TikTok tok videos every now and then.

Is "Believe Women" meant to mean women can never lie and anything they say becomes the truth? Not really...

It means we should accept claims made by women as credible and treat them seriously (without simply dismissing them for whatever bullshit reason) until credible evidence that suggests otherwise surfaces.

Almost as if believe is a really loving stupid word to use in this context. Then again I guess "treat women's accusations as credible" has less of a ring to it.

Woah now, that's far too sensible a thing to say about this topic. You need to have much hotter takes than that to be taken seriously nowadays.

Wrongfully accusing somebody of a crime is an extraordinarily evil thing to do, reporting on it serves the interests of the public. The press is doing the right thing in reporting on it.

Their shittiness comes from not giving due prominence to the 97% of cases.
