Though both accusations are ridiculous, based on actual evidence on hand. But hey, we're in an age of post-truth. Say whatever you want - nobody needs facts any more. For a while this was mostly a Republican thing, but now it seems the Democrats are on board too.
Lovely.

That might apply if he was being subjected to criminal charges in a criminal trial. But he wasn't. He was in a job interview.Mickey_Rat15 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 09, 2018 11:54 pmWhere this goes.Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Tue Oct 09, 2018 3:43 am https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/410 ... th-threats

It's not a non-sequiter because it's an example of how somebody accused of rape...does not get their life ruined, while the person doing the accusing risks a shitload blowback and punishment. It shows how high the stakes are for the accuser, and how low for the accused.

Re: Dr Ford still inundated with death threats
It's not a trial, so the same standards are not applicable is a lot like the prisoners aren't held on US soil, so torture is legal there.

Re: Dr Ford still inundated with death threats
With your guys' logic, this "nice guy" who was too dumb to know sticking a dick into an unconscious girl at a party isn't raping her, aye? She should have spoken up once she woke up and saw it. Even though she had been flirting with him and acting seductively. She brought it on herself, huh?

Re: Dr Ford still inundated with death threats
Congrats for not reading Yuka's post. And to answer your pointless white-knighting question, if someone wants to die, it's their perogative to do so. Besides, Yuka won't ever do that, as s/he's just too comfy splerging the Weltschmerz onto the internet. It's a phase, it will pass.Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 5:40 am...what the green hell do you think you are doing?Madner Kami wrote: ↑Tue Oct 09, 2018 4:31 pm Then go ahead and just kill yourself, what keeps you from doing it if everything is so shit?

The inference was that because the good doctor is getting death threats, false accusations do not really ruin men's lives. That is a non-sequitur.

This is really very basic logic.

Re: Dr Ford still inundated with death threats
Don't paint me as just going through a phase. I've struggled with a horrible existential crisis over the past three years. You know nothing about me.
What are the actual numbers for the statistics here? I read somewhere that it's 200,000 rapes per year, 100,000 of which only go reported, 4% of which are false, yes, and 9% of which affect men, but the emphasis on the latter is that it is probably higher since men also don't underreport and it may be higher since men are societally pressured to be strong and lead the way. I'm sure both left and right will counter with their own figures, though, to suit their ends.
