1. Obviously, she’s closer with Sanders than Biden...that’s why it’s called personal space.

“crucify our only chance of beating Trump”

Right, and who was setting those standards? Men, most commonly white men, who benefited from those standards. I don’t buy this bullshit that these men are just a bunch of ignoramouses who needed a good talking to - they’ve built themselves a system of oppression because they want to control others and do whatever they

He’s been called out on this creepy behavior for years and never stopped.  What makes you think he’s going to change now.

But he’s not the only chance. Why do people keep saying that?!

What false equivalency BS is this? Just because you personally have had some experiences with women whom you don’t know invading your personal space without asking does not mean it’s okay they did that (it just means you didn’t feel threatened by that behavior) and it certainly doesn’t mean that men also get to do

lol nah

Demanding women be treated with dignity in the work place is not self-righteous, it’s not assassinating someone’s character, and it’s  not applying a purity test. It’s righting a wrong that should have been put to rest a long fucking time ago. And people like you who tear your garments any time a man you deem too

Jesus, if he is our only chance against Trump, we are doomed. Also, I’ll take my chances with Harris and Warren, thank you very much. 

You see Biden as our only chance of beating Trump? Really? I think that’s silly.

It’s interesting how often the “lesser of two evils” argument gets used to dismiss voices from marginalized groups.

“Joe Biden shouldn’t be doing anything to anyone in a professional setting that he wouldn’t do to Barack Obama.”

You’re saying in the 10 years since Obama was elected and Biden’s handsy nature has been made apparent to the wider public, he never had a chance before now to say “Oh, I’m sorry, I won’t do it again,” and stop his behaviour? Never before, huh?

Fuck off. If you think Flores is lying, just say so. But I’m guessing you don’t, because nothing in Lucy Flores’s account isn’t 100% in line with hundreds of pictures of Biden getting way too close to women from the past 40 years.  Having supported Sanders doesn’t disqualify her from sharing her experience, or for

Maybe Alyssa Milano should refer back to Biden’s treatment of Anita Hill to see how good he’s been at championing women who are sexually assaulted.

Our only chance of beating Trump is a guy who failed to get even 8th place in a primary both times he ran? That’s a fucking silly thing to say with no real logic behind it. If Joe wants to be our nominee, he’s going to have to run for the job and be vetted (which, yes includes answering for him being fucking handsy)

Because people keep making excuses for this guy and telling everyone else to stop talking about it for some dumb reason.

Joe’s a great, thoughtful, articulate and funny guy, but I knew his handsy habit would come up if he joined the presidential race. Between the conservatives just DYING to drum up outrage to suit their own weaselly purposes and women who no longer want to put up with this stuff from any man - even loveable Uncle Joe -

A victim of being too high a standard?
