Unironically, nobody believes PB.
Get out with your bullshit, OP. People here are leftist and liberal, that doesn't mean you can exploit their empathy to further your own bias.
There's a reason why we have evidence based legal system, You realise how many people will be falsely prosecuted. Rich people can easily hire women to get rid of anyone whom they deem unwanted.
Imagine COPs standing on your doorstep with arrest warrant for sexual assault as a woman said so and later ICE deport you for being on serious crime list all because somebody with money wanted to do so.
Edit: Damn y'all, thanks for that old internet feeling I keep coming back to Lemmy for. Not a girl in sight in these comments.
Thanks for this edit. As expected, you're resorting to patronizing behavior if people don't agree with you. What does gender of people commenting on this thread or lemmy have to do with anything and why would someone reveal their gender here, and you are using a classic case of "if you don't Y you are not X"
They're all PAID by CROOKED HILLARY and JOE BIDEN to slander the SACRED NAME of the most PURE and NOBLE and trustworthy Donald TRUMP🇺🇸 DRAIN THE SWAMP!!!
Yep. It's highly unlikely so many women are lying about one of the most powerful men in the world who has many followers and the power to totally destroy them. Look at the abuse Christine Ford got ffs. Sorry you're getting so much shit here
This is almost dehumanizing to women, like they don't possess the basic traits of people. People lie, people take advantage, people are fucking people. And not all people are good. Are you really acting like as about 50% of the human population, there are no malicious women? Imagine if you were on the other side of a legitimate accusation, but were confused for someone else? Due process is there for a reason
Why should we trust them? Not all accusations are true women are just as screwed up as men.
An ex of mine lied that I SAed her after I broke up with her. I'd be in jail with your ideology.
Lemmy is mostly men, it is hard to share any other perspective. SA is hard to get a conviction in. If there isn't physical evidence like semen, then the victim is called a liar. If there is semen evidence, then the victim is called someone who regretted their choice and is now getting back at the person. (And this is assuming the perpetrator was male, there can be female perpetrators too). A lot of victims do not come forward about what happened because they don't want to be called a liar and labeled a pariah publicly. The absolute shame and rejection when someone doesn't believe you. This subject is pretty sensitive to me and lemmy just really, really disappoints sometimes.
I identify as a woman and the "The internet is literally all men anyone who says they're a woman is a liar" thing is really demoralizing.
If there isn’t physical evidence like semen, then the victim is called a liar.
They are called liars when there is physical evidence. Not to mention the massive backlog of processing rape kits.
Yeah, this comment section is a dumpster fire of people spouting the same shit the police do when they dismiss rape accusations and the fact that they are upvoted is even more depressing.
The truth status of accusations is probably correlated. If 90% of accusations against someone are definitely false, the remaining 10% are likely to be false too.
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
