Or how about both of them are just flat out lying?
You're vested in this narrative, and you'll say this, regardless of the facts.
And you may be right. Both of them may, indeed, be flat out lying. The solution to that is for Democrats to walk back the ridiculous aspects of the #MeToo movement. It IS possible to bring sexual offenders to justice without trashing the principles of the defendant being presumed innocent, the right of a defendant to confront witnesses and put forth defenses, and the requirement that guilt be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Because it's better that Christine Blasey Ford be doubted and Brett Kavanaugh not be prosecuted that Cathleen Crowell Webb making a false allegation and Gary Dotson spending years in prison in Illinois.
When was Kavanaugh's prosecution ever on the table? When, exactly, did Ford call for Kavanaugh to be thrown in prison?
The "ridiculous aspect" of #MeToo is generally reported to be the presumption that a woman is telling the truth as a general rule. The word "presumption" gets used a lot in this context. I would advise you to familiarize yourself with the nature of "presumptions" and how they can generally be confirmed or denied through examination of the evidence. Otherwise, it seems like you aren't actually upset about the degradation of due process and instead would just rather we make no analysis at all and instead shrug everything off until there's smoking-gun proof.
Not sure why you're bringing up Dotson's case from 1979 in your very specific attempt to critique the #MeToo movement, started in 2017, but go off, I guess.
