I don't know if he did. It's one anonymous person. Let's please not go down that rabbit hole. Not saying she's lying. But I'm also very much saying she may be, I don't know, TROLLING. do you know the consequences of women accusing men of sexual abuses? do you know how much violence, hate and disbelief they recieve when they are brave enough to come forward? it's beltiling and offensive to dismiss any allegation, even before anything has been expanded upon, as "trolling"

Dude was equally dismissive with a very long and detailed story about sexual assault, so I think we're at the point where he may just not want to hear this shit about the people he likes.

Thank you for doing the emotional labor here goodson.
I'll add that I can't possibly imagine why someone making an allegation of sexual assault against a rich and famous person with legions of dudebro fans might want to remain anonymous.
Nope, comin' up blank!

I mean, the idea that everyone should just shut up and not say anything until someone is convicted in a court of law is interesting and would totally work, though.

V. good point. Wisconsin just Brock Turner'd a UW student who stalked, raped and choked at least 11 different women but they probably shouldn't have brought it up

Yeah 3 years is nothing, and there's literally no reason for him to stop once he gets out. Fucked up.

"Please continue to be kind," [the judge] told the young woman, who sobbed intermittently as she quietly described to the court how her life changed following her encounter with Cook.

I almost want to have a son so I can teach him not to be an absolute piece of shit and actually respect everyone. But then again I don't want another kid. Conundrum.

To echo Goodson there is no reason for a woman to do this for personal glory. How many names of women do people know compared to the accused?

And final entry in the June 28 "not today, Satan" files, the Maryland shooter had a history of harassing and stalking women. I am shocked I tell you, shocked!

Is it seriously this controversial to ask people to refrain from torches and pitchforks until at least the dust settles? An anonymous person posted something. Maybe because they're scared of the ramifications. Entirely possible. So yeah, I'd love to not judge anyone immediately.

Wisconsin just Brock Turner'd a UW student who stalked, raped and choked at least 11 different women but they probably shouldn't have brought it up 1) That's terrible, shitty and the University should be held accountable. 2) From a previous post, but I think Maynard is an entitled douche. I'm merely hoping for people to please not immediately judge someone AS WELL AS for dude bros or whoever to not immediately disregard an accusation. 3) 11 different women coming forward with accusations is quite a bit different than one anonymous person 4) This is also really shitty logic. You're stating that because the OUTCOMES of cases, we should believe all of them up front? Rushing to judgement has had awful consequences in our past and unfortunately in this day and age, snap judgments are what people prefer. I understand it's not a popular opinion because not jumping in with immediate damnation makes you look like you support the accused person. That is not the case. I would much rather see us all put far more pressure on the institutions that continue to make it so difficult for justice to happen. If punishments were more swift and damaging, a lot of this shit would go away. It's by putting pressure on elected officials and God forbid putting more women in judge seats that will push society forward far more than rushing to judgement on social media platforms.

I am shocked I tell you, shocked! and threatening that very paper for posting a story about said threats. Glad the police did something about it. It should make all of you happy that my office is right by the main glass entrance here so I'll be one of the first to go. Yay! But seriously I'm kind of surprised this hasn't happened more. The calls I take on occasion here are really sick.

Almost forgot, most important, sorry if I wasn't clear enough yesterday and in turn offended anyone. I assure you I take this shit really seriously and I do not want anyone to think I'm just some bro who will blindly defend all men.
Lots of guilty assholes out there who need to get theirs.
Edit: one in particular is the so called leader of the free world.

Yvette Nicole Brown is taking Chris Hardwick's spot on Talking Dead, which kinda rules even though I actively don't like the Walking Dead. Replace everyone with women of color please

Oh goddammit that's a great choice that absolutely no one is going to watch. You think the dudebros who watch the zombie show are going to want to see Yvette Nicole Brown after?
edit: Zombie media is mostly popular because white people imagine the zombies as representing minorities, invading, breeding/spreading, taking over, and eventually getting blown away.

I'm not gonna pretend to know anything about this zombie show or its fans but I could probably assume that this is a white people thing. I think the whole concept of the "Talking Dead" show is stupid but if someone is gonna do it I'm glad it's her.

Seems like a decent fit.

Replace everyone with women of color please from what i read, she is only taking over the Walking Dead panel at comic-con. but it would seem logical if she took over the show too. edit: Zombie media is mostly popular because white people imagine the zombies as representing minorities, invading, breeding/spreading, taking over, and eventually getting blown away. wait what that shouldn't be a surprise. the black guy in Night of the Living Dead is the only one getting things done and we know his fate. it all stems from that.

I guess I'll just plead ignorance having seen maybe two zombie-focused things in my life, but jesus christ.

I honestly think that's a very new WD-related issue? Romero's shit was always about economic disparity?
