      ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted

      (a) initial tweet used the word "molested" ; I'll assume that as plausible until crisply decided (some third party adjudication - perhaps with a jury! - might be a good way to decide) (b) 6 != 14 != 18 != 30. Dads protecting 14 yos from adult 18 yos is a fine thing. https://twitter.com/NoLongerBennett/status/1006970096085012481 …

      This does reveal the source of your differing views - you assume it was non-consensual based on the father's tweet, @NoLongerBennett assumes it was consensual based on (or despite?) the same thing. I predict y'all would otherwise agree were either one's assumption reversed.

      close, but not exactly I regard it as PLAUSIBLE, and plausible claims should be investigated and adjudicated by a neutral-as-possible process there are 3 choices, and 2 of them are failure modes * assume guilt * assume innocent (MWB's stance) * demand investigation (my stance)

      people bitch and moan about lawyers and lawsuits, but I think that they're exactly wrong. A dispassionate process of truth finding is CIVILIZED; the alternative is either (a) assuming guilt and using private violence, (b) assuming innocence (and failing to defend victims)

      so PROCESSES to find guilt are an amazing social technology. We should use them more often! The problem is that the State jumped in and declared a monopoly on that process, and does it poorly.

          That said, a poor state run process is likely still better than either (a) private vengeance, (b) abstaining from private vengeance and allowing a crime against a person to go unpunished.

          well actually Mark's original tweet was about the father trying to invoke the state's power. HE knows whether it was consensual or not (I assume). If it was, then Mark is right to criticize him. If not, then you're right to defend his desire to seek the state's power to punish.
