Caroline Ellison has been sentenced to two years in jail for her role in the collapse of the cryptocurrency exchange FTX, which has been described as one of biggest financial frauds in US history.

Ellison was a top executive at the firm and is also the ex-girlfriend of its founder, Sam Bankman-Fried, who was sentenced to 25 years in prison for stealing $8bn (£6.3bn) from customers.

As part of a plea deal, Ellison admitted charges including wire fraud and money laundering, and testified against Bankman-Fried.

I feel you're implying that I was insulting her looks. It's a fair assumption, but it's incorrect. Insulting her appearance is shallow and lazy and she has limited control over her looks, besides, I would be inadvertently insulting anyone else who happens to look like her. I am insulting her personality. She's a vile person who treats people like garbage, that can be seen through her messages and posts that got exposed through this whole ordeal.

I'm implying nothing.

telling you exactly that your original comment is you taking a shot at her based on her looks. Absolutely no one is buying your alternate explanation.

Your attempt to backpedal from it makes you look even more weak than your original comment.

All of this easily overshadows your unprompted declaration that you don't get laid much.

Sure, I've tried my best to explain away the assumption and it seems I'm not getting anywhere. have a good one!
