We have to say it plainly: a lot of people—a lot of men—just don’t think that rape is very serious.

like i say every time this comes up, the term for what awaits survivors who go through the official system (cops, rape kit at the hospital, the hell of a trial where you as the victim get to be cross examined by yr rapist’s defense) is called “the second rape”

I was raped 13 years ago and I still carry the wound with me daily. It was nowhere near as bad as what happened to Jane Doe at Cornell and I’m still struggling to work through it. I cannot even imagine the pain this woman is living with nor the incredible strength to confront her rapists.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Some in the far right — including True the Vote partner & onetime Trump admin official Gregg Phillips — attacked Fox News for joining outlets in a WH boycott in response to the admin bans of Politico, CNN, & MS NOW, calling Fox "Globalist Deep Staters" who should "go to jail for voter suppression."
Left: QAnon figure MJTruth: "Fox News says they won’t cover President Trump’s events anymore, but they sure will cover Kamala Harris.. 

Fox News can kick rocks"

Right: QAnon figure Burning Bright: "In 2016, it was common knowledge among the newly-formed MAGA faithful that FOX was not our friend.

They doubled down with their role in the Fake Election of 2020.

Now, FOX is leading the charge AGAINST Trump's banning of CNN.

They're NOT secret white hats, and never have been."Left: Qanon figure The SCIF: "CNN, MSNOW, and Politico spent over a DECADE lying about and belittling President Trump.

They totally deserve what they've gotten.

Fox News saw it all happen.

But now, instead of standing up for Trump and spreading the truth, Fox News is standing by CNN, et Al.

They are all the same."

Right: QAnon figure Pepe Deluxe: "Perfect timing!

Just when the unAmerican Fox News comes out of the closet with CNN"Roger Stone: "FOX shows their true colors. Not fair and balanced.-Globalist Deep Staters"Gregg Phillips post on left: "they should all go to jail for voter suppression…

Fox News joins rival networks in suspending pooled coverage after White House turns away CNN"

Gregg Phillips post on right: "@FoxNews

Putting your thumb on the scale of a federal election during voting is wrong and irresponsible.

In fact, dropping the White House proves your bias. 

FCC should pull your license.

You’ve always been cowards. Now the world understands you are really communists sympathizers.

How having a disability became cool
Young women, nicknamed ‘sickfluencers’, are turning chronic illness into a lifestyle trend and entrenching a culture of economic inactivity

Young women are also more likely to get caught up in “social contagion” – the spontaneous spread of behaviours or emotions previously observed by sociologists in “outbreaks” of bulimia, self-harm and transgender ideology. What may have otherwise been transitory feelings are seized upon and obsessed over until they form a central pillar of a person’s identity. A chronic-illness influencer won’t want to get “better” any more than a female-bodied transgender person would want to re-identify with their sex.
