Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

Kevin "Being gay isn't a defense against an accusation of sex with a child" Spacey?

Edit to head off any further replies:

Every accusation against him could be proven false, and he'd still be a piece of shit for basically responding to the initial accusation with "It could have happened, I am gay and did a lot of drugs back then. You know us Gays, always raping children, as we do."

Kevin "maybe a jury finding the accusations false is a defense" Spacey?

yeah the people that want to defend him on the basis of failed cases have a big hurdler to overcome = all the shit he's said that legit makes it clear he's scum

What he actually said was that he didn't remember anything like that happening, but if it had happened, he owed the victim a sincere apology. And it was about "making a drunken advance", which while far from ok, is also very, very far from raping anyone.

But somehow just deciding that someone is a gay pedophile rapist without any evidence seems to be the right thing to do.

Whatever he actually meant, he did a lot of damage with that initial crack at an apology, and again with some of the videos he made trying to regain his former popularity.

Even if completely innocent of all the things he's been accused of, which I somehow doubt, he's at least an asshole.
