Watching the linked YT video a few questions arose in me: Is Prince Andrew really the creep some are saying he is?
How reliable is the testimony of Paul Page, the former Royal Security Officer making the claims?
What to think of the many commenters denouncing Andrew as a cad and supplying unflattering anecdotes to bolster their case?
And what about all the recs the negative comments quickly accrue?
To be fair, some of the comments portray Andrew in a favorable light. Most however... not so much.
The former police officer is an interesting study. He comes across as an intelligent, informed and believable man. Which apparently is how he came across to the people he swindled, and those he attempted to swindle, in a real-estate ponzi scheme he ran for a few years back in the early 2000's. And for which he was remanded to one of her majesty's prisons for six years: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/paul-page-royal-officer-guilty-fraud-b1995823.html
So, I'd say a reasonable person can discount most everything a sociopath like that might say.
As for the plethora of Andrew shaming comments.... Well, no doubt some of them are... approximately... true.
The point of this exertion isn't to defend Prince Andrew. Not at all. If only ten percent of those throwing shade at him are telling the truth, then it seems he often comports himself as a jerk.
No, my friends, my real intention here is to reveal a secret. A stunning secret! Which it seems few have figured out....
People...lie.
Not everyone is a liar of course. Probably only eighty-ninety percent. But there are a great many liars out there and you have to be aware of it.
As one example I could give: the #MeToo movement.
Most of the women testifying about how they were sexually abused decades ago were lying... or exaggerating. How do I know this? It's simple: Honest women wouldn't wait decades to come forward with their tales of rape and debauchement. Honest women would have have refused the advances made towards them by hoary old perverts. If they'd been assaulted by Harvey Weinstein honest women would have slapped him in the jowls and told him to piss off. Period.
That's what honest women would have done. But the #MeToo crowd didn't. Nope, they're not honest. They waited years to screw up their great bravery. And then, only when others started mentioning things, did they come out from the shadows.
Every #MeToo actress knew what they were getting into when they first went to Hollywood. It's been known for a hundred years for crying out loud!
In Hollywood you put out or you get out.
Everyone knows that. Everyone knows it's a degenerate s*** hole. What everyone doesn't know is that it's even more of degenerate s*** hole than we know.
Someone asked the actor James Woods, "How evil is Hollywood?” Woods responded, “Multiply your worst fears by 100.”
Here's what happened to the #MeToo actresses: those women whored around to get parts in movies. Then years later, after their wrinkles became stubborn, and God know how many abortions, their consciences started troubling them. Then, being women, they realized they'd done nothing wrong and began looking for men to blame for their misspent lives.
It's that simple.
Harvey Weinstein appears to have been a bona fide sexual predator. But to his credit, after he had sex with an actress he'd actually give her a part in one of his movies.
So, as with the piling on Prince Andrew gets in the comments section at that YT video, whenever you see the piling on phenomenon, like we saw with the #MeToo movement... disregard it. It's mostly lies.
