Hold on, in your little narrative, how are the accusers sure that there was a rape?

No, seriously, that's the point of the justice system - determine if the crime happened.

So, if anyone ever calls you a rapist, then you are one? Or are you arguing that these rules are only for other people, not for you?

I someone calls you an asshole, and people listen, you have no recourse to the justice system to recover your reputation and retain your professional connections.
