I mostly remember people being enraged at Jackson but less so with Timberlake. Is that possible? Am I mis-remembering that? Because that sounds insane. But I still think of it as “the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction” rather than “the Justin Timberlake wardrobe malfunction.” It feels very much more associated with…

Projection and Hypocrisy are the two pillars of right wing life.
