So in the 60's and 70's if a white woman claimed they were raped by a black man the women thought the police would believe the black man's story over her's?
We got to get to a place where we can look at these cases objectively. Not outright believe or dismiss these accusations. And actually entertain the idea that these accusations may hold some weight.
I don't want to get to a point where I reject the reality that humans I hold in high esteem are incapable doing abhorrent things.
They had 30 years to get their stories straight. of course they are similar.After seeing the story breaking for last few weeks or so, I finally spent a day or so going over articles, and forming what I hope is an objective opinion, and I will say that the accusations have an eerily similarity….I will admit I hardly know anything about Cosby, other then the memes, 'Dynasty Intro', emoji's and the pound cake speech, I never watched any of his shows really, or follow him in the media…..but I think that the accusations have more weight then not…maybe Cosby isn't a classic sexual predator, he just acted maliciously and recklessly during very different times, which doesn't justify his actions….but the constants in the stories are hard for me to overlook. It's fascinating regardless though.
Theres alternative explanations for the stories, other then being the truth, or close enough…...but that theory holds no weight to me….A conspiracy can be very hard to keep, imagine the most grandiose conspiracy, and then imagine holding it all together, and no one talking….You can't even get 20 people in a drug conspiracy case to hold up, how does dozens and dozens, esp. with the financial incentives to talk becomes so great... And what could be the possible motive? To destroy Bill Cosby? To undermine his legacy, for what purpose? I am not 100% convinced of his guilt, but thats where I am with it, at this point.
You answered your own question. This is all about $$$. Same reason why those ppl threw those false allegations at MJ.Theres alternative explanations for the stories, other then being the truth, or close enough…...but that theory holds no weight to me….A conspiracy can be very hard to keep, imagine the most grandiose conspiracy, and then imagine holding it all together, and no one talking….You can't even get 20 people in a drug conspiracy case to hold up, how does dozens and dozens, esp. with the financial incentives to talk becomes so great...

well if it involves pills and sexual touching or behavior, without verbal consent, it counts. Maybe he didn't 'forcibly penetrate them with himself or an object', is not the standard I am holding it too…..if he gave a bytch pills, and she woke up and he was masterbating, or attempting to touch them….thats flag on the play…he's guilty, and maybe not in a court of law, but not someone I'd trust with my loved ones, which doesn't negate any good he has done for anyone….or erase the double standard or countless examples of iconic people who are perhaps not worthy of our respect or idolization, but it does make him a creep and fukking wierdo.
Quit trying to find a glitch in the matrix breh. I can't explain it any further. They're all women who fukked around with him in the past, and are trying to use this situation as an opportunity to somehow cash in. You know the term "coming out of the woodwork"?well if it involves pills and sexual touching or behavior, without verbal consent, it counts.

^ above me: but, what is your theory then? You are making all arguments without making one….all these ladies are involved in a conspiracy together or separately to enrich themselves by making up allegations of abuse and sexual assault? Did they cross check each other stories? Or these are just independent, unsanctioned or planned acts?
