Sure, but it's harder. Celebrities can hire better lawyers and tend to be more easily forgiven due to a less personal bond

so it's a delicate balance that sadly at the present is unaddressed
-
I totally agree, and it really is a delicate situation- but there are cases where people have killed themselves over allegations
-
there are overwhelmingly more cases where trans women and black men have been murdered over false [rape] allegations
-
So, again, it's vital to simultaneously combat stigma towards survivors and do our utmost to prevent attacks based on lies
-
the distribution of where the lies are in biased away from white cis dudes though, so the/your OP of this thread is misguided
-
I will simply say that I have had personal (not first-hand) experience with this situation, which affects how strongly I view it
-
so has one of my best friends and trust me the allegations that are false center around trans women and black men
-
white dudes are just not in the camp of people to falsely accuse cos like you said they lawyer up — pointless to falsely accuse
