The AI verdict is too quick to dismiss the possibility of bias because it treats the absence of direct evidence as proof of innocence. But the real issue isn’t just what’s documented — it’s how power dynamics shape what gets documented in the first place. When a system has the ability to enforce different rules based on nationality, and when those rules are not transparent, the mere existence of a complaint — even without a video or official statement — raises a valid question. The AI assumes the lack of corroboration means the claim is false, but that’s not how systemic issues work. Sometimes the problem is that the system doesn’t want to be questioned.
