The funniest thing about the Schmitt rake stomp is that if it'd been a Dem we'd have a week of think pieces about how Dems lack of hoops literacy was alienating them from real America.

The amazing thing about Schmitt's faceplant is that even if Smith *had* been at the Hawks game it would have been actual evidence of nothing

Yes, Schmitt is an idiot for the Haws/Hawkeyes gaffe. But in light of the fact that Axios and others fired up the Schmitt for Vance’s VP machine during the hearing, we can over look the fact that he may be the most racist person in the Senate. youtu.be/HY4quehYBmc?...

All of these responses are tinged with himpathy, implying that rapists can be healed by empathy and education. You cannot educate someone who does not respect you. Men getting more empathy than their victims is why rape is so common in the first place.

The first requirement of restorative justice is a perpetrator’s confession. He has to admit what he has done and to take accountability. The men in this case are smearing the victim and threatening her with lawsuits. They are not candidates for RJ. They would turn it into a new site of violence.

Studies dating back to the 80s have found that men are not just “confused” about consent. They just don’t prioritize consent over things like power, domination, and sexual gratification. Men participating in a gang rape know they don’t have the victim’s consent.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

If you are a man, and you see another man being appalling to a woman, do at least this. Say to them "Hey, got a minute? I need some help with something." When you get them over to the side, say quietly and firmly "What the hell is wrong with you? Stop it NOW." I've done this and it works.

This is why more women don't come forward, and why more rapists aren't jailed. Because mostly-male cops and prosecutors find it more believable that a 20-yr-old would want to have sex with a room full of fraternity brothers than accept she was raped. What ever happened to common fucking sense?

Exceptional solidarity from ASU hockey players who have demanded their coach be placed on leave for essentially overseeing the murder of their teammate and have disputed the university’s findings. www.nytimes.com/athletic/764...
Seven Arizona State men’s hockey players asked the university’s president to place the Sun Devils’ coaching staff on administrative leave pending further investigation into the workout that left sophomore transfer Matthew Mayich on life support.

In a 26-page letter sent to ASU president Michael Crow on Monday and obtained by The Athletic, the players disputed numerous findings from the university’s initial review of the Aug. 20 workout, writing that Mayich did not receive water and was provided inadequate medical care after his collapse.
