Elite impunity is perhaps the single greatest problem in American politics going back to Gerald Ford’s Watergate pardons. These people keep getting away with it. This needs to stop.

I think most of us intuitively understood how disgusting the livestream aspect of this is when it was first announced. It's only a day later that we try to recuperate this as nothing new, merely continuous with white American violence. We can trust our gut here; this has a novel menace to it.

Is there a work of art that was created well before the current era that you feel explains Trump and MAGA and everything better than anything contemporary? For me it’s Assassins (1990) but I’m curious if other people have one.

You’re right. He’s a fascist. But the conservative movement gives cover, AS IT ALWAYS HAS, to fascists because they share the same social goals. It bypasses the cognitive filters in your brain and leads you to in-group identify with fascists. It’s deliberate.

This is just a relentlessly horrific story. It’s hard to adequately contextualize the moral desolation of this unfolding in the midst of a midterms against a ruling party helmed by inveterate rapists and rape apologists. www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/congres...

As a professor at the Ivy League school, Kate Manne has known many, many victims. There’s a palpable feeling on campus, she writes, that this is big.

God I'm so tired of seeing rapists everywhere. I hate these fucking braindead pigs, I hate watching them gorge on power and money for no reason except that they want it, I hate knowing they're torturing women with impunity, I hate seeing their smug stupid fucking faces on the news.

If rapists actually faced consequences for their actions we wouldn’t have nearly as many rapists. In reality many rapists actually benefit from their actions

For me, the hardest thing about stories like the Cornell gang rape case isn’t reading the initial details—although that is hard. What’s even harder is when men online, especially the journalists and pundits, start trying to combat the feminist outrage by purposefully seeding doubt and victim-blaming

i hope that men notice how whenever a rape story gets widespread coverage, women use it as an opportunity to vent about how fucking disgusting we think many of you are and how many have made our lives measurably worse, and take a few moments to deeply process that.

Just a remember of what rape can entail after the fact: permanent psychological damage. Permanent physical damage and disability. Hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical care, relocation fees, lost work, lost educational opportunity. A marred reputation. Broken trust, lost relationships.

If you don't respect yourself enough to not vote for Trump for any reason short of violent coercion you are a profoundly weak, immoral person and I have no interest in anything you think about anything. None. Nor do I care why you do what you do.

This is the attitude living in a city fosters - observing a thing doesn’t always require judgement, especially if it has nothing to do with you. Keep it moving. Don’t Tread On Me used to sort of capture this general attitude but now 😂
