Females never make up sexual assault claims, particularly college age ones. We are blowing this out of proportion.

Did I *ever* say this? No, not even close. The basis of my argument is that when you create an environment where real victims aren't believed, all you get is fake victims.

Empirically, you have no idea what happened either, because the video doesn't show what happened in the car, nor does it actually have any audio of her talking on her cellphone in the bathroom.

We'd need to find some real victims in order to believe them, all I see are mattress bitch and shit like this lately.

The reason real victims aren't believed are fake victims. The problem is women, not men. Men are never going to be able to solve this for women. Maybe we should teach young girls not to fake rape for attention.

That's absurd cognitive bias. Because themediachooses to report on a handful of cases fake victims, and only those cases, the 100s of thousands of actual rapes don't exist.

How does your opinion on this intersect with the media coverage of blacks shot by police?

Uh, until people had cellphone cameras, people pretended it wasn't happening.
Thats not really the question. Your opinion on the media coverage of rapes is that the media is doing real rape victims a disservice by covering the sensationalist stories of fake rape victims, which causes everyone to think thats more widespread than it is and causes everyone to immediately discredit and suspect actual victims, right?

How does the media coverage of blacks shot by police affect the perception of those events, and help/hurt the real victims?

Is this where you realize you made a stupid point and try to change the subject? Misting?

The fuck are you talking about? You didn't answer the question the first time so I restated it for your tiny fucking imbecile brain. Try answering it.

I answered it just fine. You seem to keep making the same logical mistake over and over again. Just because Michael Brown was a thug doesn't change anything about the half a dozen other death-by-cop killings this summer. What about the one where the cop straight up murders the guy and then plants the gun near his body, all on camera? The media glossed over that in a day or two because it wasn't in any way controversial, it was clear cut murder.

The media is ONLY interested in the stories that create conflict, because those are the stories that drive ratings and profits. That includes outlandish rape tales, questionably justified shootings, etc. But just because those are the stories the media chooses to cover, doesn't mean those are the only things that are actually happening.

Mist is on a Rape Freak Out Loop. Come back in 20 pages when she can start passing for a sane person again.

Which logical mistake did I make? I think the parallels are interesting, especially since the media's coverage is so fucked up. You're jumping to conclusions about my "logic" when I didn't say any such thing. Of course there are fucked up cops that straight up murder people (like the guy who shot the guy in the back). Of course there are fucked up rapes that happen.

Of course, there are also lots of people getting whipped into a frenzy over rape culture and black lives matter, despite the facts of rape incidents declining over time and many* of the cases of blacks shot by police being completely justified.

Interesting parallels.
