Ok dudes. Can we get real for a moment?

Men are:

15x more likely to be violent as kids

Responsible for 80%+ of all violent crimes

Culpable in 99% of mass shootings.

It looks like the problem might be us. Is it us?

If it's us. Any thoughts on why?
Like sure, we can go back and forth over socioeconomic status and race, etc... but the common denominator in violence is always men.

Kavanaugh is using the same playbook that worked for Trump

Pretend that their validity hangs on proof of one big, difficult to prove thing (Rape, Collusion) rather than on the many smaller, easily provable things (Perjury, corruption, temperament, lack of qualification, etc)
The Big Sin sucks all the air out of the room and distracts everyone from the boatload of Smaller Sins.

So if we can't nail them on the Big Sin, they can be excused of all the others and we can pretend that they only came with one questionable issue.
Any focus on The Smaller Sins is then laughed off as trivial in comparison to the Big Sin and is portrayed as petty.

But here's the catch

Great. Now POTUS can literally force the whole country listen to his morning rantings.
I'm endlessly curious about what the criteria are for POTUS to use this emergency system.

Also what consequences there are for misuse.
I know it says it's for use by FEMA, but it's literally called "Presidential" which doesn't give me warm fuzzies about the exclusivity of use.

Note how people who are trying to mislead you use the same formula

1) State an opponent's reasonable stance "believe women"

2) Add a poison pill to make it unreasonable "without due process"

3) Finish with a conclusion that seems to follow but doesn't "we get lynchings"
Here Candace adds another layer for flavor. Equivocation.

"Due process" IS what is required for the State to deprive one of life, liberty or possessions.

It's NOT a requirement for giving victims the benefit of the doubt.
What Candace wants you to do is convince you that the following is true:

Giving victims the benefit of the doubt = circumventing the court system = authorizing death or imprisonment via vigilante justice.

There's huge gaps at every step.

This is the peakiest of peak white savior lady.

Isn't it weird how people don't respond well to random foreigners trying to take their kids to a hotel and then stalking them and accusing them of kidnapping when they refuse?
She decides (as many Americans do) that if a person doesn't speak English, then speaking English with what she thinks is their native accent will make them understand
She also operates under the assumption that if people are living in conditions she personally believes are sub-standard, the she has a right to remove their children from their custody and to consider them hostile for refusing to let her do so.

So far it seems that Kavanaugh has some women friends and a suspicious cold.

#KavanaughHearings
Staffing your office with only female law clerks isn't quite the dodge against being a sexual abuser that you think it is.

#KavanaughHearings
I have to imagine it really does suck to explain to your daughters why people are mad about what daddy did to those nice ladies.

I think you misunderstand.

It's not a "rebranding"

Rape and sexual assault are particularly egregious FORMS of consent violations.

Consent violation is a category of action of which those are subsets
It's much in the same way that I am not rebranding poodles by calling them dogs.
Rape is a form of sexual assault.
Sexual assault is a form of consent violation.
