[Serious] PSA: Rape Apologetics

[Rev. Rye]

Here's what I understand for cases like Huggy Bear's: If you can argue that someone was either falsely accused of sexual assault or that someone who probably might have been guilty was convicted under circumstances that should have had the case thrown out of court, without
A) Claiming that the act in question is either okay or not that big a deal, or
B) Trying to blame the victims for what happened to them
It shouldn't fall under the definition of rape apology.

Of course, if you're arguing that the trial was unfair, you need to be crystal fucking clear about that. I've learned that if I feel the need to express an opinion that's likely to be unpopular and/or misinterpreted, I need to choose my words VERY carefully and leave as little room for doubt as possible. If you're arguing for actual innocence, well, if you can't do that without condoning or downplaying the severity of the act accused or saying the victims are somehow at fault, then you probably shouldn't bother. If you can do that without doing those things, ideally keeping close to the evidence at hand, you should be in the clear.

Am I interpreting the rule accurately, mods?
Does this make sense, Huggy Bear?
