Same shit happened in the Theranos trial.

The all-powerful "girl boss" claimed she was in over her head and manipulated by her former boyfriend/company president.

That doesn't refute anything I said, which is the factual statement that Holmes used a defense strategy of pretending to be a victim manipulated by her ex.

I never claimed such a stupid strategy would actually work, just that it is a predictable one.

What I mean is that there is no reason to make statements like this other than to disparage these people as woman.

Don't get me wrong they should rot in a cell but people use this as an opportunity to express their sexist hatred lol.

The courts aren't stupid and won't let you off just because you get pregnant or make puppy dog eyes at them.

The system is rigged in favor or women, bro. That's why all those incompetent female candidates are winning presidential elections over their qualified male opponents.
