After she said that she was a victim of sexual assault, I will bet that a chud talking point against her is that she is just exaggerating what happened to her, since anything less than rape will just be boys being boys.
@ant9 report immediately to the commissar's office for summary hog inspection
these motherfuckers saying this shit aren't Chapos. They are liberals and misogynists under the chapo flag and deserve nothing less than a ban and reeducation
OP said that the talking point will be minimizing her sexual assault, acedia's comment was that that was what was already happening. I pointed out that that's not what that particular comment was saying. No one has said AOC's trauma was not valid.
speculating about hypothetical extra evil anti-AOC talking points instead of leveling with why the ones people are actually using are valid is shit
You know we can all see your comment in the same thread, right? lol
The Chud talking point is exactly what OP says it is and it's been a talking point for days.
They’re already going with the “she wasn’t actually at the Capitol thing” so wouldn’t be surprised.
Well, she wasn't. However, for all she knew, the fascists were going to be coming into the building she was at and/or the police present would be sympathetic to them.
Victims of trauma do not all have the exact same reaction to discourse surrounding sexual assault so please be considerate of that before suggesting that anything other than reverence and blind acceptance of a politicians emotional plea is misogyny. There are many women for whom the fact that we’re getting to a point where if you don’t broadcast your trauma on a given subject then your opinion is not considered valid is not something that brings comfort. Also this is a leftist website for fucks sake — we need to be able to be comfortable confronting everything about the most powerful people in this country with a critical eye. Sorry for always being princess unpopular opinion but it needs to be said.
Of course I don’t think she’s lying but thanks for the bad faith interpretation of my comment
No one:
You: Not sympathising with a victim of sexual assault because I'm too cool for the libs 😎
