    So Lemmy which is it? Because Trump is a convicted rapist... Spacy was aquitted. Y'all can't have both. Because if you still believe spacy did it then you have to by default doubt that Trump didn't.

    Unless you just believe whatever the hell you want to for the sake of convenience but then you guys would just be... Hypocrites.

        Agreed.

        My comment is on the hypocrisy of the comment section under this post.

        I'm simply pointing out you can't have it both ways, you can't trust the legal system to convict Trump who I sincerely believe committed those crimes. And then not trust it to acquit Kevin Spacey.

        There has to be some kind of standard here right?

        Either you distrust the legal system entirely or you take it at face value because it's all we have in the United States.

        But simply agreeing with something because it conveniently fits your narrative be it true or not is not a helpful position to be in.

        Moreover Trump being one of the most powerful and Rich individuals in the world was convicted of rape in the United States Court and Kevin Spacey who's just an actor was acquitted doesn't that lend more Credence to Kevin spacey's innocence?

          Mostly incorrect. Trump is not a convicted rapist. He had been accused of rape and sexual assault numerous times, but has never faced trial. He was found civilly liable of raping Jean E. Carroll after the criminal statute of limitations expired.

          Kevin Spacey was aquitted of legal charges in England and found not civilly liable in New York, but in Los Angeles he could not be charged because of the statute of limitations. In Nantucket, the prosecutor dropped the charges against Spacey after the main accuser refused to testify. In 2019, three Spacey accusers abruptly died, one of whom was in the middle of a civil trial against Spacey.

            Ok. Great. Legal nuance aside Kevin Spacey was acquitted and Trump was convicted.

            My comment was pointing out the hypocrisy in the comment section.

            People absolutely trust that Trump is a rapist and absolutely disagree with the acquittal of Kevin Spacey. Which is a hypocritical stance concerning the courts. Either you believe the courts or you don't.

              Kevin spacey is the last person I'd call innocent, what with the distinct number of people that go against him get involved in mysterious fatal...accidents

              And his 'I'm back' and 'kill them with kindness' videos

              Its also a false dichotomy to say that a legal system such as America's is going to treat trump and spacey the same way and 'they can't acquit one and convict the other when they both did the same crime'
              They went up against VERY different courts under distinctly different circumstances (despite both of them diddling kids)

                That's the false dichotomy im talking about, while it is entirely possible for more than one pedo to exist, it is entirely possible for someone to not trust the courts and still for a court case they agree with to convict someone (a stopped clock is right twice a day kinda bullshit)
