in an effort to keep things on the up and up, that tweet isn't a direct quote. the implication is kind of there, but he didn't actually say that. let me see if I can find a link to the video.

In lighter news, the Rosenstein/Trump meeting was delayed.

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/09/27/trump-postpones-meeting-with-deputy-ag-rosenstein-until-next-week.html

President Donald Trump postponed a scheduled meeting with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein on Thursday, in order not to distract from congressional hearings for his Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh.

I'm confused, this seems like the exact opposite of his usual MO.

What I meant in the previous topic, was I just don't like the idea of believing in allegations of sexual misconduct right away. The fact that Kavanaugh (or however you spell it) has faced more accusations since puts things into context though.

It was more that I'm also against the idea of not taking allegations seriously just because they come up at the "perfect" time. Oftentimes the accusers simply want to forget, or they're worried they won't be believed, or they're worried about pushback from the one they're accusing, or they simply don't want to give their harasser any additional publicity. Also I had anyway heard from Hillary Clinton that Kavanaugh was a threat to women's rights, so I'd hardly be surprised if he really is guilty.

By this point though it seems like most accusations are fine and the real problem comes from a person's image being tarnished overnight as a result. Not a fan of people like Morgan Freeman and John Lasseter being lumped into the same category as Weinstein or Kevin Spacey, but at the same time they should understand what they did is wrong.

I also don't think this whole sexual predation thing is inherently male. If women had the same number of powerful positions there absolutely would be some around (hi Asia Argento!). It's just that women are rarely in a position to do such and far more often in a position to be sexually abused. Very unfortunate, but I also disagree with people who say women MUST apply for more positions of power to prevent this stuff from happening. In fact, that idea sounds worse the more I think about it.

Am I digging an even deeper hole for myself here?

I think it's less a function of who is actually in positions of power and more reflective of the fact that our society is one that generally believes men to be more powerful than women. (ie. I am proposing that men at a subconscious level on average believe they are in a position of power in male-female relationships, which is what leads to this, regardless of the actual social status of anyone involved)

Social conditioning is strong and I don't think there's any easy solution to that problem.

If Trump withdrew the nomination before there was a vote I would absolutely give him credit as somehow being more moral than most of the Senate, as insane as that sounds.

would he deserve it though

It's not like the Senate can force him to withdraw. And Trump wouldn't be pulling it on any moral grounds! He'd be pulling it to avoid an embarrassment.

I get that you're drawing a comparison to the Senate just not holding a vote and then soundly rejecting him but when you bring morality into it I think you lose the thread here!

But not really surprising. Conservatives have zero empathy toward sexual assault victims. Just like they have zero empathy toward kids being murdered in schools. Only when it's politically convenient do they pretend to care (Bill Clinton, Mollie Tibbetts). If they can't play it politically, they really don't give a damn.
