OT: Uh oh Henry Cavill may be in big trouble!

Weinstein is facing trial, Spacey may have charges brought. Of the many others named, none have had formal charges brought against them to date, nor faced their accusers in open court. They have had their reputations ruined, their livelihoods decimated, and may have their future careers permanently impacted based upon as of yet unproven allegations, and trial in the court of public opinion and the sensationalist press. You're okay with this? Or do you have any belief at all in the shibboleth of 'innocent until proven guilty', an assumption on which one of the bases of our legal foundation rests, de facto if not de jure? If you’re okay with the former, then you might feel right at home in Mao’s China or Stalinist Russia—two other societies where guilt was assumed through the presumption of public and peer pressure, as opposed to the right to trial by jury as a prerequisite to the establishment of guilt.

Messy as our judicial system might be, I still prefer its workings to what the worst excesses of groups such as MeToo can result in when guided by hysteria and no restraints.
