an avowed outright child molester

France is having a reckoning right now, I hope it continues. People who boasted about sexual abuse like Matzneff. People who protected abusers and likely participated like Didier Gailhaguet. Everyone knew for years that these men were horrible but did not care.

Ew.

Right! This gives me all the feels! <3

Yep, this is wonderful.  Also, great to see big beauty brands getting behind this so that the clients can walk away with the products used on them! <3

This is the good news I’ve needed to read about today.

My mom used to warn me about getting myself into a bad situation.

Oh I'm VERY aware of this (the media pushing this narrative) but if you say that here, you're just a crazy conspiracy theorist 🙃

The only reason why one sticks and the other doesn’t is because the major media outlets all back/promote the BernieBro myth. It is - objectively - a manufactured narrative. Sure, there are shitty Sanders supporters, but there’s an equal percentage of equally shitty Warren supporters (although there are less and less…

How can the Thunderdome be built if all the bridges, etc. haven’t collapsed and 80% of the world’s population hasn’t died in war or from preventative diseases? Please think ahead for ONCE.

It took me months to get the courage last year to finally show in these comments that I was supporting Sanders over Warren. Months. I was so anxious about the blowback. As much as I complain about this place, I’ve been commenting here for YEARS and I honestly do love how it feels like my little place on the internet…

Yes, thank you. During 2016 I was told (by mostly men) that I was suffering from internalized sexism for preferring Bernie. Never mind that I was socialist-leaning since I was 18 years old - listening to your parents (both whom worked full-time) fight about your hospital bills for five years due to a childhood illness…

I had something similiar happen to me too! But in my case, the neighbor was married and we were really good “couple friends”, so there was no way I going to say something without destroying mine and everyone else’s relationships and, let’s be honest, it would be blamed on me. I didn’t know what to do so I got…

Worse, the thing is, that’s actually a structural argument in favor of Sanders, not against. Literally, the argument why we, progressives and liberals in the party, must compromise and vote for the mealy-mouthed moderate, is because that is necessary to get the votes of people who won’t vote for everything we want.

This entire ecosystem, which appears to be getting bigger every day, was bankrolled and built by people who have concluded the only way to reform the system is to build another one where the simplest form of healthcare is a saleable and aspirational experience, not a service. And definitely not a right.

See and this is where it’s wild to me because I’ve had some Warren supporters be absolute ASSHOLES to me and insinuate that I’m wrestling with internalized misogyny - okay wait a minute not some, but damn near all. I see it all over Facebook, all over Twitter, and yet I would happily welcome Warren folks into the…

Ugh, I am so sorry to hear this. It is so not your fault.

Oh man, this hits close to home. I was taken advantage of by a man who was 14 years older than me. I was 21, in a physically abusive relationship, isolated, and he was my next door neighbor. He was kind, good-looking, and would listen to me, and one night he pushed himself on me while we were sitting out on my deck. I…

Klobuchar benefited from always being in the second tier of candidates so nobody was really coming after her. Combined with Iowa and New Hampshire being majority white and here we are. And to be fair a moderate who is not familiar with her past career as DA and some of the stories about her mistreatment of staff may…

Then again, there are also clips of Mayor Pete saying he supported Medicare For All ... but that was before he started taking money from insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies.
