    Going out in the media to cry about cancel culture and how you’re innocent isn’t exactly the behavior of an innocent man. Someone who truly knows they’re innocent will clam up, beat the court case, and then declare vindication.

      How many times has this actually worked? I’m not going to go on a very far limb to say that social media’s ability to revisit topics is very very very low.

      In fact it seems like it’s the opposite and and once you’re out of the media cycle you’re gone.

      I wouldn’t take your advice. 👍 By the time the court case is over and you’ve ‘won’ you’ve lost your job house and family to bad press.
