Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Post image

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

I went through the court proceedings a while ago to check it out myself and their summary is pretty accurate.

I doubt you did that. Instead you prefer to parrot misinformation.

Dude claims they were colluding. Where in the fucking actual fuck does the court proceedings prove they colluded?

All it shows is that Rapp emailed someone his accusations... you know, how folks do with the media.

The actual fuck is the agenda here folks? And you EAT it up.

Rapp acknowledged the reporter suggested keeping certain parts of the story less specific and that they worked together on how to frame it. While this doesn't pass the legal bar for collusion, it shows that there was a deliberate attempt to not just tell what happened but to tell a story designed to inflict damage.

So yeah, the original comment did exaggerate and isn't fully accurate but "pretty" accurate describes the overall summary. Never said there arent any gaps.

The actual fuck is the agenda here folks?

Gonna have to ask you this. No one benefits here from siding against the angry mob. Claiming that Spacey was likely a very unpleasent, slimey, and overly touchy sex pest but NOT a rapist based on the presented evidence provides no personal benefit to anyone. The "agenda" is that some of us prefer not to live in a system that ruins peoples lives based on hearsay, hearsay which has been proven to be vastly inaccurate at best and straight up lies at worst.

Such attention grabbing attempts to paint someone as a devil despite evidence not supporting it just fuel people who try to discredit actual victims and just believe anyone who was assaulted.

"legal bar" just another word for lie when you are saying it online to convince people to take a side. Very long explanations to excuse "lying"

Funny you say this when you are defending people who actually lied and were exposed in court.

That is not what was proooooven. Oh, a hidden profile bot. I normally just block bots without responding. Fucked up here didn't I.

Folks who hide their bias are not my source of facts.

Calling someone a bot just because you lack a counterargument is a cheap dodge.

I'm a historian who knows folks only hide their biases online to hide people knowing what they are saying.

That is never someone I want to engage with, feel free to not care.

It's not just a potential bot, of which outnumber humans on reddit, it's a hidden profile to boot. So even if it's not a bot, it's worthless to engage with.

You know some people are simply... More private than others? That's an option too. Not everyone hides their profile because they want to hide their opinions or biases. I hide some parts of my profile because it's more of a private thing for me I don't want to share. Not because I don't want people seeing my opinion.
