    It’s simple, any pictures of politicians we love like that are wild, goofy, alt-right conspiracy theories. We have 95% of news organizations already repeating the same stories as each other. When 95% all say it’s a conspiracy, it is. Don’t believe those other fringe rags.

  Youtube cutting off their monetisation does not put the person in jail.

    I didn’t say it was?

      Then why are you framing your post like it was? If you get accused of raping a woman and you’re going on live TV wearing your employee uniform defending yourself, your employer is firing you 10 out of 10 times.

      You’re literally quoting a law that is used in court about penalties and it’s still up there. You forgot to delete before saying you didn’t say it. Lazy.

      You did though. Innocent until proven guilty is a legal concept, not a business concept. Businesses are allowed to choose who to do business with.

      That’s the only context innocent until proven guilty ever existed, so yeah, you actually kind of did

      Because cutting off monetisation has nothing to do with being proven guilty or not.

  It’s not the legal system, it’s a heartless corporation trying to maximize their revenue. Capitalizing on the situation.

  That’s for criminal liability to attach. Not public opinion.

  You do realize that innocent until proven guilty only applies with the government, right? Normal people and companies do not have to extend the same luxury. Hell our military doesn’t even give that luxury.

    I’ve been accused and then shunned after some valuables went missing at a house party.

    I was the only minority. Nobody dared to stand up for me and everybody just pointed fingers to the weakest individual.

    Branded as a thief despite my life long upstanding morality, career, ethics.
