If they rewrite the balance of the final season so Claire has Francis killed and assumes power - THAT WOULD ACTUALLY COMPORT WITH THE SOURCE MATERIAL! Let Robin Wright carry the season (she’s been the real standout anyway, but this is the way the original story goes)

This was the scariest fucking story about our government. Between their horrible arguments about undocumented people not being actual fucking people and their fucking handmaiden tale style moralizing this is the scariest the GOP has been.

Replying to you to keep the greys greyed. It’s really mind-blowing how people can’t understand how any unwanted touching (intended by the person doing the touching, I get that accidents happen) is not OK and is a form of sexual assault. Its extremely demeaning and dehumanizing to grab a woman without her permission,…

It’s still kind of gross how Democrats have really ignored Clinton’s behavior. Yeah, Trump’s a disgusting predator but why do we have to lionize another one?

I wonder what was so humorous about sexually assaulting someone?

I feel awful saying this and I know it’s awful I’m even thinking it.

The premise is interesting. “I didn’t want to be one of those people’ implies that prior to becoming one, they were acutely aware of what sexual assault was and what ‘those people,’ the perpetrators, are.

Turned a corner? I don’t know don’t know if you realize this, but we’re really just monkeys who wear pants. I go to bed every night happy that someone didn’t hurl feces at me.

I want to think we may have turned some kind of a corner here on tolerance of sexual harassment and abuse, but part of me feels we’re only days before the backlash starts and Fox/Trump are screaming about witchhunts and sexual McCarthyism without a trace of irony.

White people will always look the other way and absolve sin around them, if it means they get a piece of the pie, too.

And there you have the problem with “ironic racism.” You may be intending to make fun of “actual racists,” but to the person on the receiving end of your comments, it can be no different than if they’d gotten those same comments from an actual redneck. I mean, honestly, what is the difference? Whether you’re mocking…

You guys, my sanity can’t withstand clinking the links themselves. Am I reading correctly that his charge for CHOKING a woman was criminal mischief?

ban. all. men.

What’s even worse? The right-wing rage-media industrial complex is already turning on this poor family and their fallen soldier.

So how long before Trump publicly mocks the widow or the mother of the soldier or lies about them on camera?

“So sorry - when I speak to young women I naturally assume they’ll never be successful enough for anyone to care what they say.”

Exactly.

I don’t think the author was advocating for making unwanted but ultimately consensual sex a crime. She’s simply saying that we need to discuss these problematic sexual dynamics because they are fucked up and make people feel like shit. I’ve had plenty of terrible, borderline nonconsensual sexual encounters that I…

Wow there are a lot of aggressively shitty commenters here. I’m kind of surprised there are people who don’t grasp that people can be pressured to do things they don’t want to do. They might not be able to do anything about it legally but that doesn’t mean there are no emotional and psychological effects. People can…

You missed the whole point of this article.
