“‘Free Lorna’ / ‘Lorna did nothing wrong’ is not a serious argument—it’s trolling that minimizes or excuses sexual assault. It’s designed to provoke reactions, trivialize harm, and derail any meaningful discussion. It reframes an alleged abuser as the victim without engaging with facts or accountability, and in doing so, it dismisses the reality of abuse and the people affected by it. This kind of rhetoric contributes to a culture where sexual violence is downplayed and harder to confront.”
