Will there be fewer incest rape allegations?
Ngl, I hear "incest rape allegations" and I'm thinking 4chan must be doing their thing here.
What?
There's a website called 4chan, and they find amusement in coming up with outlandish accusations which lack any truthful foundation.
This particular accusation appears to be particularly outlandish with no apparent foundation, and thus I've attributed it to the aforementioned website 4chan.
That's not how 4chan works lmao.
I mean, I've been on 4chan since like 2005, so I feel like I have a decent idea of how it works, but you're entitled to your opinion.
Seems plausible. This guy seems to be in every thread shouting rape and talking shit with the basis being tweets.
You could always take one second to look the story up.
Maybe you're right, but also, I think it's fair for me to draw an inconclusive opinion until I come across further evidence. I'm not spreading misinformation or anything, just making conversation.
To be clear, I don't have a horse in this particular race. Whether it's true or not doesn't really affect me in any way.
So, you say you have no horse in this race. Then why take the side of the alleged abuser? When I have no stake in the claim, I tend to take the victim's claims at face value because the overwhelming historical evidence shows that victims don't make up claims, and overwhelmingly that toxic people tend to dismiss their claims or attack the victim further.
Perhaps consider the subject at hand, and why you might find yourself rejecting the alleged victim's claim. And what kind of person would do such a thing.
The distinction is that the victim didn't make the claim here; some random guy on the internet made the claim.
... the dude's sister literally made the claim. You're working awful hard to spread lies for some reason. I wonder why..
do you have any evidence to repeat such awful accusations? I've read other people saying the same thing but there is no evidence so far.
Cool name, did you bother to look yourself?

I wish she could have been more direct about her claims. I certainly don’t think that the only specific thing she described was troubling i.e having a 13 year old boy sleeping with his sister. The incest claims are only implied. It looks like other aspects of her dramatic life are too much to be likely (almost like the world is confabulating against her) . Since the accusations are so serious I hope she can sue to get her money and punish her brother if true. And that her brother sues her for defamation if she is lying.
The downvoters should take the time to read the article. The person that wrote the compilation has their take at the end and it’s consistent with my comment. You might want to check the section titled “How to interpret these claims?”
Too much to be likely according to fucking who? You have the audacity to not only doubt her direct statement with no logic other than “too shitty to believe”. This is why abusers and manipulators are effective.
People like you.
And here you are convicting someone with zero evidence, just claims.
Thats not justice, thats called a witch hunt.
Is your name Torquemada?
Consistent claims for years.
Proven evidence of behavior from the brother.
You are correct though, innocent until proven guilty. But that doesn’t mean I can’t form a reasonable narrative based off of the claimed evidence, consistency, and direct examples (including recordings from her podcast) of behavior from the brother. Brother is older than her, and in a rich family. Brother goes on to business time. Sister is struggling with wide variety of mental problems and illness - wouldn’t be that out of pocket for family to be hard on her if frustrated.
Idk I think the key takeaway here ive come to is that he should be considered innocent because they don’t have physical evidence available right now. I’ll be editing my other comments.
It’s hard to believe no one in the family sided with her. The timing is convenient. The allegations are vague. Is It really likely that she got shadowed banned by her alleged brother and not because instagram shadow bans sex workers as a policy?
Haha fucking damn, that’s a curated list of sources for all claims if I’ve ever seen one.
it might be best if you read before commenting. you'll probably hate the section titled "How to interpret these claims".
you should also try to learn about the distinction between claims and evidence.
You’re a jack ass.
Ahh but a very correct one..
Cope
Oh, sweet summer child…
Fewer than none?
Is it hard work carrying water for everyone that has allegations against them, or did you pick this one guy in particular for some strange reason?
