Some recent horrible sexual assault/misconduct allegations have come out about Vince McMahon. https://www.thesportster.com/wwe-female-wrestlers-bellas-natalya-vince-mcmahon-allegations/

Right now I vote B. Yes McMahon is rich, old and he’s all about the “macho” image. I could see a lot of people having the “old creep” image in their minds and voting A.

But his age, money and status does not and should not automatically dictate his guilt or lack thereof. I know a lot of women defended Johnny Deppe with the Amber Herd allegations. That’s easy to do when their childhood favorite Jack Sparrow is being attacked. But that’s not how you should judge people.

This is even worse for politicians. People want to automatically believe an accused politician is guilty if they don’t like their party. But that’s another rabbit hole debate.

Anyway this could be true but there needs to be more hard evidence beyond allegations. When male celebrities get accused there are often heinous women who after the jackpot. MLB pitcher Trevor Bauer was an egregious case of this. https://nypost.com/2023/10/05/trevor-bauers-accuser-lindsey-hill-responds-to-text-and-video-claims/ He was 100% innocent but MLB suspended him anyway and he lost hundreds of millions of dollars.

The thing is years ago I used to quickly side the woman when it came to these allegations. But ever since #metoo wrecked havoc on society I find myself questioning the accuser first now. Especially if it’s a high profile case.
