    ITT: Assaulting a woman isn’t a crime if I don’t like her.

    I’m not trying to play at civility politics here, just reminding people that #MeToo and believe women wasn’t that long ago. Without question, MTG is a monster, but we vote her out instead of cheering violence, January 6th also wasn’t that long ago and we as a society need to be better than those idiots instead of wishing harm to the elected.

    It’s not funny to say she deserved it, that’s just repackaging the “she was asking for it” trope.

      Unfortunately, the fediverse is a lot like Reddit where users are more than happy to justify violence and horrible things to other people because they’re from the opposite side of the political and/or socioeconomic spectrum.

      Sounds kinda similar to some right-wingers, don’t it?
