“Who else is trying to get these kits tested?”

I saw this when it originally aired and it’s appalling. Also what the fuck is wrong with people, specifically the state senator who literally blocked legislation to get these kits tested?

From End The Backlog, an organization advocating for expedited rape kit testing:

With Lori Loughlin involved in this, I think it’s safe to say that this scandal is going to be everywhere you look.

Previously, on Splinter:

I understand what you are arguing, and I’m not saying that an unqualified person should take responsibility for resolving the situation, but again this is a line of thinking that when taken to it’s logical conclusion explains why victims were not helped, and why that’s completely reasonable. It’s not that it doesn’t…

You’re misinterpreting or misrepresenting my argument. I’m not using examples of people perpetuating abuse, I’m talking about otherwise morally upright people who are involved in institutions that also contain abusers, and are approached by victims of that abuse, and then take the appropriate steps prescribed by that…

But, again, if you scrutinize your logic here it prioritizes the state of mind of the person hearing the allegation over the victim’s safety. This is the exact phenomenon abusers use to slip into a bureaucracy that isn’t equipped to handle them either, and then escape unscathed with the benefit of having been…

That is exactly how abuse is perpetuated within an institution

If you design grills for McDonald’s, and a teenager came to you and said “hey, the guy playing Ronald is sexually harassing me,” would you be comfortable telling them you aren’t qualified to intervene because your technical skills lie elsewhere?

“The rapist, in this case, has made a lifelong commitment to live and take care of the person, so it is a little different,” Carlson says, referring to underage marriage.

It’s true, I am kind of uptight about not condoning sex with children.

So basically you’re suggesting that, in this world where women are still not treated as men’s equals in most fields of life, if we have movies focusing on empowered female main characters we shouldn’t focus on them being empowered women, in order to avoid hurting men’s brittle egos. Otherwise the movies and the…

The MCU’s Captain Marvel just comes off as smug and disinterested, with a constant ‘deal with it’ look on her face in every frame of the trailer.

He does have a point. A troll is someone who is out to get a few laughs by being a dick yet rarely do they believe what they are saying or doing.

Wow your post history should be studied in troll school. It’s a beautiful combination of awful takes, unneeded confrontation and personal attacks. Combined with that user name.....C’est Magnifique!!

You just don’t understand why Brie Larson saying words has ruined a movie I haven’t watched yet! You just want to take muh freedom of speech to say Captain Marvel is a bad movie because something something SJWs!
