I won't look up actual facts I will just make stuff up to sound plausible in the thinnest margin and that's all I need to do. Because real life is just like court. Reasonable doubt is all we need!
well some other comments pointed out that it's 2 years old so deepfake video is much less likely. But if this was from the last few weeks I'd say this goes beyond reasonable doubt. In politics there's always going to be people with motives to destroy a politician they think is harmful (which in this case he really is, of course). I think scrutiny is needed in any case. But if there's no evidence for fakery, I don't care about "reasonable doubt" either.
Forgive me for not looking for a video of a man sucking another man's dick, that's not my kink. I don't want to read articles describing the act either, with the risk of embedding a still. I don't even live in the same country as this so I couldn't care less if he actually did it, I just thought it was weird this wasn't mentioned in the preceding comments.
I'm not asking you to do anything that has anything to do with anything sexual. I am asking you to simply provide any sort of credible evidence towards your accusations of it being a deep fake. If you have knowledge of deep fakes you surely know where to find evidence to back up your claims. Or show me how you think it's something other than the rape victims say it is.
Like I'm all for proving that an innocent person is innocent. But at least have something besides just yelling random crap that it could be. "It's a fake video" with no evidence is not productive nor is it accurate. It's the blatant attempts from a party that does not understand what logical thinking means.
You haven't even read the claims! Shut the fuck up.
No, I made it very clear upfront: I read the OP and the comments I replied to. You're the one who went on the offensive and started a fight. You could have replied in a million other ways that aren't aggressive, or not replied at all.
Edit: and whatever claims you're talking about are not the topic of this conversaion
Shut up. You are commenting on something you have no business commenting on. If you don't look something enough you aren't doing anything but spewing nonsense.
Again, you are the one talking about something that's not the subject of this post.
I'll grant your wish - this is the last time I reply to you.
Again you are trying to police how you are taken. You are speaking about something you won't even read about. Shut up.
