https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/ne ... ed-w514495 Quote: "I would challenge the media to stop using the word 'alleged,'" she said in a preview clip of the discussion that aired on Today Wednesday. "My beef is really with all the people who are complicit. It's the first time in history women are being believed, even though we get slagged." "I would challenge the media to stop reporting stories responsibly" |

What’s wrong w what she said. These fuckers old boys club have been getting away with this for years. I tend to believe most of these allegations BECAUSE AS MEN we know this shit happens way too much. We all know/knew these type of guys since Hs and what they do and the games they play and how they get away with it. If you disagree your just not wanting to admit it. More power to her. |

I get that 'guilty until proven innocent' happens in the court of public opinion all the time, but that is different than the media. |

I get what you’re saying frank but these fuckers need to be shamed publicly. I know what she means by alleged. The word is like a cover. Anecdote of the day - Back in the late 80s early 90s I worked at a office where these group of guys just preyed on women. Guido types. These dumfucks would come into work talking about sex all day. If there was a 20 something in the office, they’d arrange fake meetings with them. If you saw them they’d literally be hanging over the woman. One day I noticed one lady very uncomfortable like she was going to cry. I stopped and asked her if she was ok. She sheepishly said ok. I said u don’t look ok. I get off work walking to my car and the pack of these guys confront me. One pauses me against the car asking why I was trying to mess with his pussy. I was like fuck this. I’m not going to get beat up over this as I needed the gig at the time. I’m sure you guys have similar stories. I wish I had the balls back then but I was trying to put food on the table and a roof over my head and it was too much a risk. |

This is the natural progression of stuff like this. Sure, all these famous people are getting accused of harassment (and worse), but nobody is going to jail. People are getting paid off in most instances (or so I assume). Not to throw a blanket statement out there, but some of these accusers are likely not seeing what they believe to be justice being served, so now let's blame the media for using the legally correct terminology. If Bill Cosby isn't going to jail, then neither is Weinstein, Spacey, C.K., Lauer, or anyone else. |

Sweeping "anti-bigotry" legislation that'll redefine language as violence will hit the USA. It'll be considered assault to misgender someone or make any sort of sexual comment about somebody in public. There is 100% chance of this. The liberals will pass it as retribution for Trump. |

If someone would have told me years ago that there would be "Pronoun Committees" on college campuses as well as Safe Spaces where students could watch videos of frolicking puppies and have cookies and milk when they got distressing news I would have thought they were nuts. There are already groups of people have begun referring to language that is critical of them as "violence" so I would not be surprised if, as America says, legislation is eventually passed redefining certain language as violence. |

They have infiltrated the bureaucracy and higher education. Dissenting thought is already shut down as violence in academia and, increasingly, the workplace. It isn't that much of a leap to shut it down in public. There will also be privilege taxes that redistribute money to the historically oppressed. That'll be the moment to renounce citizenship, turn in your passport and go anywhere that can take you. If I were white or even just a man I would be making arrangement to get out and stay out, I sure am. Not being prepared for this reality now is the difference between landing in continental Europe/Australia/NZ (with basically the same level of economic development you are already used to in America) or being what amounts to an economic refugee in a shithole like the Philippines or Belize. All you idiots who think this isn't possible or even rooting for it? Like Kirkwood and Douchebag? Enjoy it. You deserve it. |
