No, it’s non-critical thinking to assume a “most likely scenario” when there are still a wide range of likely scenarios and we have literally zero evidence for any of them. I’d posit there are 4 “most likely” scenarios:

Honestly I don’t think Gadot’s a good actor AT ALL. WW demanded 0 acting from her. If she can play 1 character well, good for her, go swim in your piles of money and post it on Instragram and I will Fav/RT all the live long day.

How addled is your brain? You successfully - in an argument where you were both sides - transformed “I’m not a libertarian, but I’m sensitive to that argument, at least in the abstract” into “sovereign citizen militia member”.

that’s a real butt

That’s a fake butt

Sadly, the correct answer is more likely “They were not abused in the way that they testified to during the trial” and that’s about it.

There is a long and sustained tradition of gay people ‘mentoring’ younger gay people. It can range from altruistic (the world is not especially welcoming for gay people and they frequently lack familial support) to “grooming” - e.g., Milo.

Science isn’t always as scientific as you might believe.

As a boy who played D&D in the 80s (my mom was aware of, but either dismissed or didn’t care about “satanic” associations with the game), by 1998 the “Satanic Panic” was more than a decade past its peak. In 1998 Ani Difranco was playing Lillith Fair, Ellen was out, etc. While it wasn’t 2017 in regards to our societies…

Try therapy and/or smoking weed. You seem a bit too intent on inflicting the maximum possible suffering on the parents. That’s a bit distressing.

If I’m a defense lawyer, he’s my case: “There’s no actual evidence - other than the word of the original accusers who were lying to begin with (even as the judge sentenced these women to long jail sentences) - that the father encouraged them to fabricate these stories. The girls were lying then and although they feel…

The culture we are born into is, in fact, arbitrary. Unless you’re telling me you chose where and when to be born.

I think Notaro calling for CK to account for the accusations against him is wholly appropriate; but I don’t think it’s a good look to lightly trash-talk his involvement with the show (It’s unclear to me if this is a “real comment” by Tig or more of a media creation, who’s ever driving it, IMO you’re doing a…

Seems pretty right on to me:

I see that you can technically read, but lack a brain that can even vaguely understand things such as “context” or “meaning”:

> That’s the deal with society. We all agree to abide by certain rules

You have nothing to say to bougie who insisted a sympathy to some elements of anarchism = pedophile, tho?

Only in as much as it made sense to imply that I was interested in pedophilia because I was vaguely sensitive to the idea that the culture we are born into is completely arbitrary, absolutely.

I find people who insist that wherever you go, there are (valid) expectations and norms, are usually KKK members. I’m not saying you’re a Grand Cyclops or anything, but, you could be.

I’m not a libertarian, but I’m sensitive to that argument, at least in the abstract. Laws vary all over the world, why should be subject to them based on where some imaginary lines on a map are? I know, I know, real life doesn’t exactly conform and people want to do things I’d find unethical at least.
