Whatever the answer to all that is will hopefully give you the answer as to who should be believed, regardless of who it is

And ask yourself, above all, is your reason for otherwise disliking the victim and/or otherwise disliking the accused REALLY RELEVANT to the nature of the case
November 14, 2025 at 1:02 PM
And as yourself, what are your experiences with the legal system, have they always been sympathetic, or have they asked you to justify your every reason for even existing
November 14, 2025 at 1:02 PM
And if you have experienced similar to what the victim is claiming to have experience, ask yourself how you would want people to respond to your own case if the perpetrator was a really popular celeb or some such
November 14, 2025 at 1:02 PM
Ask yourself, would you defend the accused if they were family or friend, DESPITE the severity of the accusations against them, and the chance they were actually guilty (because you don’t really necessarily know what they do out and about or when you aren’t around)
November 14, 2025 at 1:02 PM
Ask yourself is your reason for wanting to see yourself in what the accused says in their defence/denial ACTUALLY REAL, or is it a response the MEDIA are encouraging

And all the biologists who chat BS about “evolution isn’t real” and neuroscientists who chat bullsh** about autism (to the point other neuroscientists and psychologists call them out on it), and so on, it’s like a qualification isn’t foolproof against chatting BS, people can be really sneaky!!!

Also, it doesn’t stop people WITH qualifications chatting sh**, have you SEEN how many NHS Doctors, but particularly also Nurses and Paramedics, chat sh** about vaccines? And DON’T always (sometimes do, but not always) lose their jobs over it?

My issue is with ideological veganism and when veganism becomes either or both eco-colonial and anti-ecological science (as opposed to politics or philosophy or religion)
November 12, 2025 at 10:01 AM
Also the fact a lot of ideological vegans are opposed to the fact (so not opinion) that if you are going to grow crops for food you have to be prepared to take stern measures to control animals that would otherwise raid your crops and leave nothing to eat
November 12, 2025 at 10:01 AM
Also, the fact that if you adopt a full vegan diet, you have to set aside land for food crop fields, which can be as devastating to ecosystems as INTENSIVE (rather than mixed/rotational) meat farms, palm oil (which goes into a lot of plant based foods) is proof of that

Watch the film Angry Inuk, it talks about the issue of Arctic hunts from the Inuit perspective
November 12, 2025 at 10:00 AM
That’s what I have an issue with, it’s not veganism itself, it’s making veganism an ideological and political (even legal) obligation

And where the indigenous peoples (such as the Inuuk/Inuit (singular Inuk)) have repeatedly said that they don’t want to be dependent on imports from warmer regions, as that has ties with their treatment by coloniser powers, and prefer to be self-sufficient
November 12, 2025 at 10:00 AM
Particularly in regions where too little edible plant life with the right nutrients grow (mountain and polar regions, for example)

As opposed to politics or religion or philosophy

Specifically anti-ecological science
