I’m only applying to Musk or Trump the standards I would like others to apply to me. If I was wrongly accused of being a pedo, however vile an individual I might otherwise be, I would like others to have the intellectual honesty to say they have no proof, even if they hate my guts.

Also, it reflects poorly on people who accuse others of things without proof. It certainly would feel good to go around saying Musk is a pedo because the man is so abhorrent. But it would also be wrong.

A billionaire nazi, rapist, murderer, should have the same treatment as we get, or should we also get the correct treatment because it doesn’t seem we are.

I’m with you philosophically speaking, everyone should be innocent until proven guilty. And then we should all face the law similarly.

The rich aren’t facing the law, you’re just protecting his online persona/reputation IMO. That’s the point I try to make.

  The rich aren’t facing the law
  
  The point I’m trying to make, as a regular Joe who isn’t mega-rich on the backs of everybody else, is that we’re better than that.

    Well that’s the point I’m trying to make, when a billionaire rapist who will never face anything from the law is called a pedo, people swarm in “protecting” them, where are they for people in your situation?

    Of course they do, that’s exactly what the billionaires are paying for. Those highly paid PR teams have this shit down to a science.
