It's a goddamn disgrace that this is happening, but what with Twitler actively encouraging his cultists to attack people, I guess it's sadly predictable now.

No, it's not.

It's pointing out that, despite the rape accusations, this guy is still a new member of the highest court on the land, whereas the idea that women falsely accuse men of rape for attention or money or political gain is sharply contrasted with the chamber of horrors that awaits any woman who dares point a finger at somebody she says violated her.

Well said.

Goddamn it I hope the Democrats finally impeach a Justice when they re-take Congress. Chase was a partisan hack but he AFAIK didn't rape anyone. Hopefully partisan hack + serial sexual predator + unreformed alcoholic + mean drunk is enough, right?

Could we maybe combine all these Ford/Kavenaugh threads into one instead of starting a new one for whatever random thought one of you guys has on the topic?

The US being a giant coutry, if she was man who said something similar and he was taken as seriously she, he would also get death threats.

Hey Fuzzy, Worffan just called Kavanaugh a cereal rapist. Kavanaugh has been slapped with a label and a presumption of guilt is required to maintain that label. Despite his very probable innocence, that mud won't wash off maybe ever. Just ask the Duke Lacrosse team about it. I hear they still receive death threats.

Speaking of, nice of you to ignore the death threats Kavanaugh specifically and Conservatives generally have received.

No, he called him a serial rapist. That's a very different thing.

Though both accusations are ridiculous, based on actual evidence on hand. But hey, we're in an age of post-truth. Say whatever you want - nobody needs facts any more. For a while this was mostly a Republican thing, but now it seems the Democrats are on board too.

Lovely.
