I didn't watch the video. How is she a fraud. I admit she kinda comes off as an SJW and a little over-dramatic about things.

Can't watch the video, but from seeing this being discussed recently... apparently believing in due process (as she's said regarding accusations against Biden) is at odds with the #metoo and #believewomen hashtags from the Kavanaugh hearings according to some. Seems to me her actual message back then was "they should be listened to and not just written off as liars" and not that the men are automatically guilty and don't deserve due process, though.

I'm not that invested in the subject of celebrity opinions, maybe there actually is direct contradiction in there somewhere, but that was my takeaway from seeing sites like Daily Caller blasting her.

She used to be pretty...

Ah, so now we're calling it a "complex, painful situation" when we decide only to trust women when we feel like it

*yawn* Ive never been on her brand of social justice nor Debra messing. You tried tho!

Everyone trusts someone when they feel like it. It is called belief. No one should be afforded trust purely based off what race, gender or religion someone is. That is the problem with the modern feminist movement and the figure heads dont even follow their own absurd mottos and hashtags.

Look how Lena Dunham reversed that belief the minute someone on her show got accused of sexual assault.

But...then who's the boss?

Trust, in the case of believing women who come forward and say they were victims of sexual assault, also should not be based on partisan convenience. We're seeing treatment of Tara Reade from Democrats that echoes some of what we saw of Christine Blasey Ford from Republicans.

Did Sanders tell Warren that a woman cant beat Trump?

As I recall, trusting these women as advocated by #MeToo did not come with these kinds of caveats or conditions until recently.

And Ive always had an issue with that. Listen to all women? For sure.

Believe all women is stupid and sexist

It's an idea that has merit but is executed really badly.

It's supposed to combat the whole "woman comes forward and gets laughed at" sort of thing that does happen a lot, but it gets taken too far.

is that the same thing as what Trump and Biden have been accused of towards women?

Alyssa Milano is an attention whore, that's not news.

After three years of leftists saying "Pointing out the hypocrisy of Republicans doesn't work", I don't know why they think that it's going to work against Biden supporters.

The truth is that "believing women" should mostly mean that you don't discount their claims just because of who they are accusing or who they are. It doesn't mean that once presented with a story that you have to believe the details of it if it strains credulity.

Let's look at Keith Ellison. He was accused by an ex-partner of domestic violence, abuse, etc. The left did not come out and say "Let's believe her and throw him out". Why? Well part of it is that the Star Tribune hadn't found anything credible about the account which had been thrown around for a year or so and it was only just surfacing because of him running for AG in Minnesota and some conservative group got it out there. She/her son also claimed that there was video evidence but couldn't produce it when people said "Okay, show us then".

But are those reasons to not believe her or rationalizations for supporting him? Maybe it's a combination of both. Regardless, I think that there was sufficient reason to "hear her out" and then determine that we probably weren't hearing an accurate description of the situation.

There are definitely people who are believing and disbelieving this out of political convenience. I think it would serve some Bernie Sanders surrogates better to get non-political entities to take this story seriously and investigate it rather than being like "The first people that I want the public to hear this from is people who appear to be jaded anti-Biden people!" because even though that shouldn't make a difference, the reality we live in is that who chooses to believe a story impacts what the public opinion on it is.

So let me get this right:

At first she believes to wait for all the facts but now she says trust women only or you're sexist?

---

What's funny is the way Nomad words this topic makes it sound like Milano exposed a fraud herself. when in reality his topic is about her being the fraud. The title is a lie.

Believe women unless its about my friend Joe - Alyssa Milano

Yeah, exactly. Its a reactionary idea that needed to happen in the mainstream because of the amount of women victims who werent believed, but it started as Believe Women in response to cases like Cosby and Weinstein where it wasnt just 1 woman making an allegation - it was an overwhelming amount corroborating each other saying yup thats what that scumbag did. Once its reduced to each individual person though, were left with shit like the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard situation, where its now obvious that believing a woman just because shes a woman was just as bad as not believing a woman just because shes a woman.

Believe victims and cut the sexism out of it.

But in the Depp/Heard situation she was considered the victim, so how does it change the situation at all to focus on victim status rather than sex in your own example?

Conflating believing rape victims and believing political opportunist strategy is definitely an interesting choice.

Deflecting in an effort to not examine Believe Women being used as a tool to bludgeon political opponents is also interesting.

Already said I was never part of that gang so I am at least not hypocritical about it. My discussion came about because I critiqued Miss Milano for using slogans like this and the dangers that can come when you make ultimatum statements like hers.

Atticus Finch is a famous fictional episode.

A famous recent example was the situation with Johnny Depp. People who make claims of being wronged should be listen to and offered sensitivity when discussing heinous acts. That doesnt mean accept what is said at face value.

I feel that God (lmao the user not God in Heaven) actually agrees with me on that but wanted to try and score cheap points by painting me as some pussyhat nasty women since he likes to put people in boxes. Rather than just agree with me he goes to attack despite being on the same side. Cest la vie

I honestly don't understand what you mean regarding Finch in this context.

---

I am getting way off topic with my example, dont mean to derail lol

Comparing believing Warren's political ploy and believing rape victims is a bad look my dude. It's not "Believe All Women Regarding Everything Always". I'm sure you can see how "All Lives Matter" your argument is.
---

Nope. Black Lives Matter. And I listen to women and provide them respect.

Then maybe don't push arguments that say otherwise lmao
