In general, any multimillionaire that gets off of a serious charge doesn’t mean they’re innocent.
It just another example of having ridiculous amounts of money in our legal system means it’s really hard to be hel accountable.
Hell, trump got off of beating and raping his wife, because of an old ass New York law that said a husband can’t rape his wife under any circumstance.
Lupe something.
And he wasnt convicted, but was going to. The state had a “medical expert” show up and testify that there was no way an adult woman could look like that. Just 100% sure of himself and smug as fuck about it.
Then the defense called the pornstar to the stand and she was in her late 20s or something and working in the industry for over a decade.
It was something that never should have made it to trial, and gets used a lot as an example for how shit expert testimony can be. The prosecution doesn’t try to find the person who knows the most, they find whoever can do the best job of convincing a jury that the prosecution is right. So the people who do it (some are professional “expert witnesses”) are just the most overconfident people. Even if they’re not sure, they play it up that there can’t be any doubt.
Yeah, it was really buggy recently, so lots of people just switched instances
He was just mad they were making money instead of him…
Everyone knew as soon as he started saying “pump the brakes” he just wanted a chance to catch up
Especially with vote bots.
It’s going to be mostly bots voting against each other
Lemmy is better on web than kbin.
But kbin lets you block entire instances as a user, which is worth the tradeoff for me.
There was a couple instances I just didn’t want to see and blocking them by community was like whack a mole
Yeah, I’ve been on 3 Lemmy instances and now kbin in like 3 weeks
Finding out kbin let you block a whole instances instead of just communities was enough to warrant a new account
Nah, continuing a task while trying to process something like this is something the vast majority of humans would do.
I remember a common repost on reddit. A female reporter in the 60s asked businessmen on the street about sexual harassment and if it was ok to touch their secretaries. The ones that would say it was ok shed start sexually harassing them and they had no fucking clue what to do.
They reacted the same way, trying to continue the interview but obviously uncomfortable (even tho they had just been flirting with the attractive reporter).
I’m a guy (a pretty big guy at that) and I’ve had women grope me out of nowhere during my bar days. It’s a mindfuck, and you just kind of go on autopilot while you try to rationalize what’s happening.
The woman’s reaction in this video is completely normal.
