I have nothing against Majors. And maybe there is something more to this story, but it is hilarious ERA is bending over backwards to give Majors benefit of the doubt or at least not immediately going into "fuck him" mode and ban anyone that dares imply otherwise. I mean, these takes here:

...would have gotten those users immediately dogpiled, accused of being a rape apologist/misogynist/rightwing chud, and shortly perma banned previously. Though, something tells me they wouldn't be nearly as understanding/patient for more info if, say, Chris Pratt or Dave Chapelle was accused.

It's absolutely hilarious she did this but it fits, she's a fucking idiot Absolutely.
As with most she's coasted on people misrepresenting her situation because she's been a useful figure for rallying against the woke mob, cancel culture and 'trans ideology'. Esteemed professor and feminist is hounded out of her job by trans activists for daring to believe in biology.
While it won't make a dent for the usual suspects and those who've fallen into the sinkhole, going mask off on abortion will severely limit how much appeal she has to the wider population. Going from a position where she's often been their go-to victim (like in the recent debate on the Equality Act) to... this. Nothing kills the "I care about trans people, I'm just passionate about women's rights" siren faster than arguing women shouldn't have bodily autonomy.
I know you dumbshits don't even read 'The Opposition's arguments let alone make any good faith attempt to actually fucking understand them, but the exercepts you fucking posted as gotcha proof that a philosophy lecturer is secretly ultra orthodox religious don't even fucking say what you claim they do.
She is saying that there are ethical inconsistencies in reproductive rights rhetoric; for example, men are held to be responsible and liable (usually financially) for an unwanted (by them) child, yet have no say in whether that child should even be born or not.
Thats not a 'pro life' argument.
That's an equality of rights argument.

Or like Kyuji, permanently and irrevocably fuck your body up by pretending to be something you are in fact not.
Spoiler: (click to show)(click to hide)
Even if Majors is innocent, he sounds like a double faced douchebag. What makes him that much different to Justin Roiland?
Roiland acted like a creep but as far as we know he didn’t actually have sex with minors. We know that Majors is a double faced asshole but is hardly uncommon in Hollywood.
whether you're talking about sex with minors or majors, you're gonna have a bad time

ZeoVGM wrote:This isn't the Depp case though.
- Majors' lawyer released text messages that were meant to make him look good but in fact, made him look worse.
- His management dropped him immediately. It stands to reason that they wouldn't have done that without knowing the situation was bad.
- Variety reported that more women were coming forward and speaking to the D.A.'s office. This was back in April and I don't believe has had any updates since but that is a very important distinction from the Depp situation.
I would agree that it was wrong to call for his firing the moment the story first broke. "Believe women" does not mean "immediately assume the accused is guilty." It means women should be listened to and taken seriously because they rarely are. But let's also not compare this to the Depp case, which was very different.

He's black, and in the mind's of many of Era's members, he is therefore automatically innocent and his shit tastes like honey.
Just wait and see how sanctimonious and self-righteous Era is gonna be if Majors is found innocent. There are dozens, simply dozens, waiting to scream how Majors is a victim of 'racism' and shouting 'white privilege', 'fuck that bitch', 'send her to jail' etc... to the accuser, aka, the mother of his child.
