Stanford employee who incited panic on campus over rape claims arrested for making up assaults as revenge hoax on coworker

Jennifer Ann Gries, 25, was an employee working as the Housing Service Center Supervisor at Stanford who TWICE claimed to have been raped on campus by the same man in 2022. The campus was swept with fear and angry protests as a result.

This is why I don't believe any woman when they said they've been assaulted now.

Unless there's any piece of concrete proof that corroborates their story, I distrust and disbelieve as my first stance. And, no, bruises and cuts aren't proof: They can easily be self-inflicted.

It sucks for the genuine rape victims out there --it really does-- but they can blame their fellow women who basically pissed in the pool repeatedly for this increasingly normal viewpoint from people.

Don't trust but verify.

Assuming they even last that long, considering that the feminists are already being targeted for ideological purging thanks to how they inherently clash with transgenderism.

Well, they turned on JKR pretty quick.

And, hilariously, everything she's said about "men in dresses"/trans-trenders invading all women's spaces, as well as women themselves being relegated to "birthing person" and "chest-feeders", has been proven completely correct.

This is an excellent summary of what men face now, and what the (unintended) consequences are for women and their "victory".

They're basically being iced out from work opportunities and social aspects.

Now that's what I call laser-guided karma

Now that's what I call laser-guided karma

That hasn't come yet.

Culturally were in a kind of perfect storm that just makes people lonely frustraited and seething with rage. We live in a culuture that has continunally humilated young men for 20 years strait. Our entire civilization is basically boiling under the surface with raw fucking rage.

People laugh at incells but when you think about it thats a warband looking for any leader that promises to make anything less shitty. Right no one has reached out to them no one has geniuanly looked to this large group of disafected men with absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain by over throwing the system.

But sooner or later some one will, after all its an instant army to any one who offers to simply give a shit about them.

Maybe that's why they went all so hard after Tate, trying to nuke his internet presence, criminalizing him, detaining him in Romania without actual charges?

'Incels' are not an 'instant army.' The vast, vast majority of them lack the courage and drive to physically fight for something. If they had that drive, it would be reflected in other parts of life, and they wouldn't be incels.

Like any sufficiently large group of people, there are outliers, but not enough to make it useful for someone who is trying to stir up violence.

Yeah, but not worse people who are living in very comfortable physical circumstances.

Maybe, but they might still make a useful voting block for someone looking to do reforms.

That is much more likely.

Apparently Chris Avellone is filing another lawsuit against one of the defendants, Karissa Barrows. This is apparently different from the prior lawsuit he filed against Barrows and numerous other, often unnamed defendants last year in a libel suit. This lawsuit apparently is in regards to defamation.

Video game writer sues Belleville woman after defamatory posts went viral

EAST ST. LOUIS - Video game writer Chris Avellone claims a Belleville woman tarnished his reputation and career when she made false sexual harassment claims, and the social media posts went viral.

Chris Avellone Wins?



Oh it's a joint statement so they all clearly won in the end. Only in America!

I'd like to Congratulate Avellone's Legal Team and their vigorous defensive legal strategy (pictured below).

 

[Culsu]

Can't really say anyone won here. Chris lost countless opportunities in the industry and will always have this crap attached to his name.

Yep -- even when vindicated and the women involved are proven without a doubt to be lying, disgusting pieces of shit, the man still suffers socially, legally, and career-wise. The women? Zero consequences.

"$10,000 fine or ten years in prison for lying/false accusation, no parole."

#BelieveAllWomen is a lie, an utter joke, and women should now be automatically treated with suspicion, unless there's ironclad evidence to support their claims.

As I said before, it sucks for genuine victims, but their fellow women took advantage of things and pissed in the pool for all of them.

 

[Husky_Khan]

Seven figure confidential settlement as a result of the lawsuit seems pretty unexpected though.

So there was consequences that arose from the lawsuit he filed. And it seemed to happen in a "short" amount of time, months rather than years or whatever.

Edit:
Apparently the Libel Suit actually started in 2021.

Any accusation primarily brought forth via Twitter/social media and not first in a court of law should come with the direct threat of a massive libel suit by the accused attached.

So I watched this video and saw that a lot of people were abandoning this guy for his past actions. My first response was that I agreed with them, my second was that they were canceling him. I was talking to someone about this and there were two main issues that came up for the difference, arguably. First, here it is individuals and not corporations who are canceling him (so far), and second is that in cancel culture you can never be forgiven, whereas this guy has kept his nose clean for fifty years.

I don't like that he was never properly punished for what he did, and I like even less that he didn't express remorse for doing it, or tried to atone. What makes it worse is that he attempted to lie about what happened, painting himself as the victim. I'm not even angry at the guy; I'm just saddened because of him, of what he did and tried to do.

Yeah, I had similar thoughts. Penguinz0 described him as a narcissist, which I would totally buy. Seems like he is probably proud of having gotten off on a technicality rather than ashamed of what he did, but it was still a very small part of his life. Kind of reminds me of when Matt Walsh's emails got hacked and his boss said that he didn't care what was dug up from the past.

OMFG Clarence Thomas is photographed with one of the Conservative Koch Brothers! Corruption!



Oh wait... whose the weasly guy in the middle?

Pro Publica,a non-profit left wing investigative journalism organization (who has done some good stuff) released a new article yet again denouncing Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for living the life of a typical Washington Elite. But for some reason liberal documentary filmmaker Ken Burns is the one trending on social media, not Clarence Thomas.

Why is that?



Good. Good.

Apparently Clarence Thomas' relationship with the Koch Brothers was so secret that only a select few, like Ken Burns knew about it and took photographs of them together.

My goodness... this Bohemian Grove shit is a haven of right wing degeneracy? What were the Koch Brothers, Clarence Thomas and Ken Burns plotting while here? A New American Civil War? The Rise of a Neo-Confederacy? Book Burnings? More private funding of Public Broadcasting?



Ken Burns be whining about Conservatives wanting to do book burnings and then is partying with them in these so-called Right Wing Cabal meetings and taking their millions for his liberal pet projects. Very troubling.

Looks like last July, the final criminal charges against Kevin Spacey were dismissed in a trial by jury in Britain. Prior to that, previous criminal charges and lawsuits were either dismissed or overturned including in another jury trial in the States. One of the alleged victims also died of course, and another one refused to reveal their public identity. Plus Kevin Spacey and his production company was ordered to pay millions to the company behind Netflix's House of Cards for violating their Sexual Harassment Policy.

But overall, though quite likely a sexual deviant or even predator perhaps, in the eyes of the law, he seems to be mostly in the clear.

Cinema cancels premiere of Kevin Spacey's first film since acquittal

The Prince Charles Cinema, just off Leicester Square in the centre of the capital, claimed that it had not realised the House of Cards actor was appearing in Control, a new independent British film.

www.dailymail.co.uk

Only reason I found out about this was because I saw some news headline on the opening page of a website that said some film festival was banning a movie he was starring in called Control which was apparently his first released film since the charges against him were dismissed. 🤷‍♀️
