Is this where I call you a “triggered snowflake cuck” or something?

After Senator Gillibrand called for it.

It’s a joke because groping women without their consent is funny?

Her politics vs. his politics and the timing of this accusation culturally just don’t pass the smell test for me.

Thank you for your counterpoints. I appreciate the discussion.

What I’m curious about is what goes through the minds of people like this when they read about scandals like their own in the media. It has to be at least a little uncomfortable for Franken to read about Weinstein, Moore, Spacey, etc. seeing women bravely stepping forward and being believed, and wondering when the…

I don’t know if I agree with that.

Just read the updated, longer apology. It’s the best one so far when I compare the (few) apologies that the accused men have bothered to offer. I thought Louis CK’s was pretty good (purely from a PR point of view; of course it’s full of fuckery if you read it closely) but this one gets an A, at least in my first…

He’s grabbing her breasts while she’s sleeping. That’s more than just childish.

He must go. The apology is a fucking disingenuous insult. She remembered the incident just fine — and sexual assault on a sleeping woman is never a joke.

Holding a sexual predator accountable is not “self righteous”, it’s just “righteous”. And NO men don’t get to fondle our breasts as quid pro quo for voting our way.

It’s also upsetting because he’s been the best so far at nailing Sessions’ hide to the wall. [sigh]

By “their people” I assume you mean sexual predators?

Absolutely. I love Franken as a senator, and had been hoping he’d run in 2020. But he needs to step down, now.

“I certainly don’t remember the rehearsal for the skit in the same way, but I send my sincerest apologies to Leeann” is...not really an apology.

Millennials didn’t learn from the Baby Boomers that shaming an entire population doesn’t cause awareness that leads to change. It causes awareness of a social standard that leads to pretending to change. That’s why we have wypipo calling themselves the victims of racism. They are tired of the shaming and tired of the…

Nah, that’s like the people who say “I’m not good at” returning people’s calls, emails or texts. Bullshit. As long as you are talking about what you are or are not, you are not doing. You’re stalling with the shame show. Its moral masturbation

Wait, I think I get it. Calling yourself trash is how men deal with the fact that they actually like patriarchy and misogyny because it benefits them. So they show shame and that covers up for the fact that they still want dominance. If you say “I’m trash” and do a little performative feminism, you can avoid changing…

I feel sorry for people who need a shame step in order to reform behavior. I feel sorry for people who need an “I am” before they can move to “I do”. I feel sorry for people that need others to take the shame step because they were never taught you can skip it. Shame is a useless emotion and actually a way to avoid…

In CPR class they say breaking ribs is expected and better than dead.
