I hope they get a fair trial, are allowed to present their defense, and are treated properly by the courts as defendents.

If they're found guilty I hope they're given a very long sentence in a very dark hole. No, I won't shed a tear if they're convicted. They're both human pieces of shit. If they're tried and convicted pieces of shit then the world will be a little bit better while they're incarcerated.

On one hand I'm pretty sure we all can be pretty confident he's guilty

On the other I wish everyone acted more like this instead of treating the idea of making a rich person go to court to find out the truth like it's an attack

Can we not make Lemmy all about divisive American politics please? :)

Trying to silence discussion of politics is itself a tacit endorsement of the status quo.

True, but Trump is only tangentially related to Tate. If the discussion went further comparing their followers, that would be on topic.

It’s a single line at the end making light of their similarities. He wasn’t trying to make this website all about American politics as suggested.

I think Jonny's comment was about the Trump reference in an article about a British man human trafficking women in Romania. No one is trying to silence discussion
