"That 70s Show" Actor Danny Masterson Again Facing Rape Charges

Here's my thing, though: Why falsely accuse THIS guy? Why drag it out for 20 years?

He's not that rich and not that famous. Much bigger fish to go after.

If y'all know me well, you know I'm a skeptic by nature, and I don't automatically Believe All Women. I just don't. I look at the evidence and make my judgment accordingly.

There's no reason to disbelieve them in this case. While I firmly believe Weinstein and Cosby were guilty, I can also see How and Why they could be targeted by false accusations. Those are Big Fish.

Nobody knows who "Danny Masterson" is. "Hyde from That 70s Show" is famous. "Danny Masterson" is not famous. Falsely accusing and extorting Danny Masterson makes no sense. They also filed criminal complaints against him, NOT civil compaints. They didn't ask for money, they asked for him to be thrown in jail. Big difference. They also didn't wait 20 years until he was in a place of prominence and THEN accuse; they accused him Back Then and have been pursuing it ever since.

I do not, by default, "Believe All Women". I believe the ones in which the evidence supports their accusations. This fits. I cannot see any reason at all why anyone who's accused him would lie.

We'll see, but I don't think it's a work. I think he's a scumbag who used his money and influence and connections and entitlement to abuse women, and I think he deserves to be punished for it.

If I'm proven wrong, I'm proven wrong. This case, to me, seems pretty straightforward.

Also, c'mon guys, I almost never make threads. Go rub your dicks together and try to make fire in one'a your own.

It would be nice if ONE Current Events thread didn't get locked, y'know?
