disgusting r*pe culture

quillmonger.bsky.social•97 days ago

When you read stuff like this and then you see the weirdo men complaining about consent and the Jordan Petersons whining about how "no one knows the rules" it makes you think "maybe this is all connected."

framptongeraci.bsky.social•97 days ago

I worry that a lot of men’s definition of “not rape” is “she was polite to me at some point in the past and didn’t actively, physically succeed at fighting me off.”

I mean these guys believe marriage is permanent consent. Women will sometimes smile to be polite and deescalate an uncomfortable situation, and I assume these idiots must see that as a form of consent.

Anyway we need to bring back "teach boys not to rape" as a slogan.

Total scum!

elly-bean.bsky.social•97 days ago

Hegseth should do us all a favor and swan dive into a woodchipper.

pandemicanxiety.bsky.social•97 days ago

Normal people don't think about having sex with unconscious women. Hegseth and Cosby are weird.

piucaffe.bsky.social•97 days ago

It sounds like he wants women out of the military to protect them from guys like him.

popularprogressive.bsky.social•97 days ago

I just yelled out “What the fuck, man?”

Dude needs to be strapped to a rocket and sent into the Sun 🚀

Perhaps head of the department of cosby is more appropriate

brooklynkid53bskys.bsky.social•97 days ago

The GOP line right now is "he said she said, this is unverified rumor"

we shall see what happens

w00d3nsp4c3m4n.bsky.social•97 days ago

What a shitbird.

hellakazoo.bsky.social•97 days ago

I agree the guy isn't qualified, and for sure his claim that he was "cleared" is bunk, since the case was closed without filing charges due to lack of definitive evidence. But is an accusation alone disqualifying? The tattoos and lack of experience, sure. All else seems like click bait to me atm.

desertsquirrel.bsky.social•97 days ago

Well it is from the party that says "if women want it or not." So it's no surprise he doesn't understand consent

wolvestheshaman.bsky.social•97 days ago

...yikes...

quarterrican04.bsky.social•97 days ago

I see this going down more like Kavanaugh where there's tons of reports of him being a rapist, including one haunting detailed story, and republicans rally around him saying how awful the critics are to publicize the horrific crimes of a proud Christian conservative who just wants incredible power

thuunist.com•97 days ago

And then he sobs publicly about really liking beer.

durrettperson.bsky.social•97 days ago

Completely normal Republican behavior

goofing.bsky.social•97 days ago

that is disgusting behavior but maybe i only think that because of the echo chamber?
Like maybe we are missing out on the big brain right wing ideas that would make this seem totally okay. Both sides folks!

bluebird4.bsky.social•97 days ago

Gals, we are in the middle of a #MeToo backlash. It's angry, strong and vengeful, so watch out.

ascherrod.bsky.social•97 days ago

All this scumbags can fly to Mars with Elon! That’s the right place for them!

isurvivedwolf359.bsky.social•97 days ago

I was concerned about a Trump presidency, but this is obviously going to be a complete debacle because while they have the market on being complete garbage humans cornered, they are going to be so completely incompetent I'm going to sit back and watch the show.

crucialwax.com•97 days ago

I am profoundly baffled at what the right gets away with.

kristianson.bsky.social•97 days ago

Who are these people

leejohnson.bsky.social•97 days ago

They love to tell on themselves with projection. Kind of like when Piers Morgan said there’s no point in being in a bathroom unless you’re lurking

mrbarca.bsky.social•97 days ago

He's an awful human being. Republican voters are gonna love this guy

aeliameth.bsky.social•97 days ago

I get why murder is illegal but maybe it’s time to start calling some of it self-defense. Like what if we started pulling a Zimmerman or a Rittenhouse but for good?

mattmooregp.bsky.social•97 days ago

Trump round 2 is somehow off to an even worse start than Trump round 1 managed in 2016... truly mind boggling stuff.

shychko.bsky.social•97 days ago

I assumed that there was a strong chance that Hegseth learned his Rohypnol game from Jesse Watters, but clearly he learned it before his time at Fox.

rhetoricrebel.com•97 days ago

He sounds like the kind of guy you'd proudly bring home to meet the parents.

angenne.bsky.social•97 days ago

Emma, I listened to your post-election show and got choked up with you when you were lamenting how insignificant women's rights had seemed to large swaths of the electorate, and how much economic concerns had eclipsed Trump's horrendous record on women's rights and immigration.

angenne.bsky.social•97 days ago

But this reminded me of something that I feel compelled to share, even if it comes across as an unhinged rant from a rando on the internet. I was born and raised in Iran to a working class family. I've always had an affinity to left-leaning groups

angenne.bsky.social•97 days ago

and have tried to stay connected to activist communities since immigrating to the US. So it has been especially disheartening to see the American left abandon Iranian women and their struggle for equal rights over the past ten or so years.

angenne.bsky.social•97 days ago

I was especially taken aback when I (by that point an avid listener to your podcast) tuned in one day during the #WomenLifeFreedom protests and found Trita Parsi to be your guest. I didn't expect you to know everything that Parsi and his associates had done to discredit Iranian women's struggle,

angenne.bsky.social•97 days ago

but I couldn't help wondering why you had chosen to platform a policy analyst, and not, say, a women's rights activist or human rights lawyer. I distinctly remember thinking, "couldn't they at least have a woman on?"

angenne.bsky.social•97 days ago

Unsurprisingly Parsi spent the majority of the interview analyzing the impact of US sanctions on Iran's economic collapse and blaming the US administration for the eruption of protests.

internet-killjoy.bsky.social•97 days ago

Wow. Wonder if anyone ever gives this guy a hard time about public restrooms? Probably not.

gregtroyan.bsky.social•97 days ago

The Trump admin is really flexing the whole hatred of women thing.

starrene.bsky.social•96 days ago

Wow, there are no depths to the wickedness

jsnworks.bsky.social•97 days ago

Trump is trolling America.
