    Instead of repeating the enormous gas bag that is Nigel Garage, perhaps you would actually like to provide some evidence that that is the case.

      Given that there are asylum seekers who pretend to convert to another religion to try and get asylum, is it really that much a stretch to suggest that some others will try to game the system in another way?

      I know this is Lemmy and we’re all supposed to pretend that every asylum seeker is a good and honest person, but that’s not how reality works.

        Sure people will try and game the system, does that mean everybody is and we should fuck then all over?

        Based on this thread can I make the connection that everybody here is a fucking idiot, or do I just assume you and the other dude are the idiots here because that’s all we have evidence of.

        My fellow brits are known for being beer louts around Europe, does that mean all of Britain is that way? Of course it doesn’t.

        This is just a circle. “The judge is probably right, because he’s probably right”. Using this case as evidence that this case is something that happens frequently, inspite of the judge not using evidence, but his gut. Evidence he was faking would be a video of him kissing a woman at a football game. Not, he hasn’t documented his gayness enough, but also he has to show shame over it at the same time. Too much shame? Somehow evidence he’s not gay, like in this case. To little shame? According to this article it is used to prove they aren’t because real gay people need shame. The evidence is never “hey look, he’s having sex with women, and refusing all these perfectly good men”.
