And you have a habit of believing unfounded conspiracy theories even when all the evidence says otherwise and refusing to change your mind when presented with evidence. So I don't give your admonishment much weight that I'm too gullible.

Do you have an example of 3 women independently accusing a guy of being abusive and it's false? Or are you just pretending that dismissing one means dismissing all of them?
