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..
