    Sam Altman has never given the public any reason to believe a word he says. He’s a disingenuous liar, and is known for acting like whomever he’s currently talking to. He’s a sociopath. I have no trouble believing he was capable of these allegations.

    I also don’t understand why a judge thinks a medical exam would find anything useful so many years after the alleged crimes. It makes no sense for that to be the reason this was dismissed unless the judge was just looking for an excuse. And whether or not his sister has issues doesn’t seem relevant either. If she was repeatedly assaulted by her brother, it’s not at all surprising that she would have lasting trauma.

    I think this comes down to the fact that he is a well-known figure with an insane amount of money and influence. He is above the law, like everyone else in his class

    Dismissed because she wouldn’t submit to invasive examination decades after the fact.

    He’s a predator.

    I hate the guy, but this particular allegation never seemed credible. His sister has some mental health issues and was looking for a pay day.

        Gotta make sure other rape and sexual abuse victims always second guess reporting.

        Make it always visible how victims are disbelieved and must be perfect. Make it clear that victims will be judged by things that are no fault of their own.

        Comments like that are so incredibly despicable to me. They’re not talking to the sister with that comment. They’re speaking to every victim that comes across that comment.

      My mother was raped by her brother many times during their childhood.

      She is the one most fucked up persons I’ve ever met.

      Your reasoning is beyond flawed.

      Mental health issues are what you get from the trauma of being raped.

      WTF? How are people so trauma UNinformed.

      Rape and sexual abuse victims always have to be perfect with zero mental health issues in order to be believed. Got it. /s

      Maybe I’m weird, but if I was filthy fucking rich, and a sibling or parent needed money, I would just…you know…give it to them.

          Yeah…i know. But yet it somehow still never ceases to amaze and horrify me just how messed up these people are.

        You haven’t met my sister. Voted fro Trump 3 times, home schooled her kids, and soaked my parents for money to try to get sole custody of her kids who she couldn’t be bothered to vaccinate for whooping cough…

      Never seemed credible? He engaged in all the exact tactics of a DARVO abuser. Here you’re doing the work for him. The reason has nothing to do with credibility yet you’re here attacking her credibility. And for what… you claim people with mental health issues can’t be victims. Do you know how sick and pro-rapist your ideology is?

        You have taken my statement to such an extreme that I do not believe that it will be productive to engage.

            That’s fair, but this thread is also full of people questioning the courts. If regular citizens can’t be trusted to judge, and courts also can’t be trusted to judge, who is to judge? (If we trusted all victims of any crime, you can see how that could be easily abused.)

              A conservative certainly cannot be trusted to judge, and the overtly unreasonable judge in this case is a conservative.
