Lol. What is this? "Rather than addressing your critique, here are some positions I believe you hold. They're despicable."
Just because you think your position is an...evisceration (it didn't make you cringe to type that? who talks about their own arguments that way?) doesn't mean that it is. Your argument is a stock response to socially progressive movements (and I'm a social conservative who has been warning about the overreach of leftist sexual politics since before GamerGate, so drop all that bs).
Here, I'll show you:
Or this:
Are you seriously contending that this is not the standard critique given by the Right? If not this, then what? What did the opponents of the civil rights movement argue? Serious question.
Do you believe your response is any less canned? You could be a parrot for The Daily Beast, Slate, HuffPo, and Jezebel.
I'm have never argued that widespread misogyny and abuse across the globe aren't real. In fact, I was one of the few posters who highlighted these issues-- as with Islam-- before these #woke dilettantes showed up and made it trendy. That was back before ISIS who woke the world up to Islam, and got people learning more about their abject, widespread, acute cultural depravities. I had posters trying to get me de-modded for being an "Islamophobe", LOL. I was nearly alone. Boy did that change after 2013-14. I have argued in detail the shortcomings and obvious political agenda of #metoo in many posts over the past few years. I'm not going to regurgitate a novel every time. I supplied a specific example of one of those women's thought leaders whose own politics are self-contradictory with regard to targeting the most oppressive majorities, specifically
their greatest institutions of power, and breaking a few eggs to "get shit done".
Why do you think there is so little political emphasis on scouring the single greatest hotbed of sexual abuse in our country? It happens at home. It's incest abuse. It's fathers, uncles, brothers, cousins. Why is there no "listen and believe" in these instances? The answer is because though it very much involves an abuse of power there is no
real political power or wealth to exploit by tearing down the perpetrators. Furthermore, guess which ethnicity is linked to significantly higher rates of sexual abuse at home than the scaru controlling majority of white CIS males, Leagon? I bet you can guess.
So of course the engineers of this movement aren't pushing hard to police these groups or trumpet their group-correlated predispositions in the press to demonize that group of people, and spur greater action to address it. They'd be going at war with their own base. It's about going after positions of power and wealth including institutions like MSU which has the deep pockets to pay out a half billion dollar class-action settlement. At least that was real. It's also about disingenuously trying to drum up outrage to block a Supreme Court nomination because, well, he was Republican and a man. It's about couching the movement in anecdotal abuse cases about Stanford students like white boy Brock Larson, where the story is framed in racial terms, politically, when in the case of minority rap stars like R. Kelly and 6ix9ine I only recall a
single story that took the opportunity to highlight racial/cultural problems with regard to rates of sexual abuse.
In the USA,
for all sexual assaults, not just those involving incest abuse at home:
- Guess who is most likely to perpetrate a sexual assault per capita? Black men.
- Guess the status of those most likely to commit a sexual assault? Felons.
- Guess which group is overwhelmingly most likely to sexually assault men? Gay men.
- Guess where these sexual assaults are most likely to take place? Urban areas (i.e. blue strongholds)
- Guess which households are most likely to involve sexual abuse? The poorest; specifically broken homes or those with a single parent.
- Guess what is more likely than less likely to be involved in a sexual assault? Alcohol or drug use.
So if this movement is truly about sexual assault, if it is truly about helping survivors and preventing more crime, then why aren't these liberal activists on a cultural crusade against black men, felons, gays, the culture of drug use, the poor, and broken marriages? Roughly 7 out of 10 of all sexual assault victims are children-- most from these broken homes. Can you honestly say to my face that this movement has centered itself in a focus on the abuse of children? Children aren't at work, yet. No boss with a higher salary to displace. No need for a stick to swing at an ever-giving pinata. It's more important to work people up to a point of hysteria so that a mere word is all it takes to destroy the career of a man like Chris Hardwick.
Wake up. This shit isn't about justice. It isn't about sexual assault. It's about money and power, and going after the groups that have it. That was prostituted to the point people noticed, so now they're attempting to borrow genuine abuse from abroad under the same label to justify the shit they pulled on Brett Kavanaugh.
Go fuck yourself, #metoo.
