In the UK, there was the collapse of due process in the criminal court system as a direct result of allowing a feminist a position of authority with which she could operate and push her fucked up demands related to this topic, an abuse of human rights she was able to carry out due to MeToo and other campaigns like it.

Oh, are you still playing the "the accused doesn't get to cross examine the accuser personally ergo there is no cross examination" card?

If the accused is not permitted council and is not permitted to cross-examine the accuser, their is no cross-examination on the part of the accused.

Not to the same extent as a criminal court, and council is denied in most cases.


Yes, any hearing wherein there is no right to legal counsel is a kangaroo court. It's part of why Robespierre was guillotined, you know.

Simple enough.


This is ignoring the reality of the dynamic, which is that men are held to an impossible standard and women are held to no standard at all. For example, take a look at the google memo. They feel like they're walking on eggshells because that is the dynamic imposed by the feminist movement and the disproportionate power women have over men in our society.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

He was punished for being "sexist" to women. The unreasonability of the feminist movement has escalated beyond arbitrary, one sided, and unhinged standards for sexual harassment, and has escalated into arbtirary, one sided, and unhinged standards for sexual abuse as MeToo demonstrates.

Al Franken seems like a genuinely good guy, but he was not innocent.

As I pointed out once, George Takei was apparently falsely accused, he denied any wrongdoing, and he's been able to carry on with his public life with no inconvenience.

What actual offense did Franken commit? That has been proven in a court of law before he was hounded out of office?

Also, the very fact for me, that feminists are now attacking and accusing George Takei for even a second is very chilling.

Anyway, the point for me remains that you can be a fucking choirboy or you can be Bill Maher and someone will accuse you if you are a man, plain and simple. Sooner or later, it will happen to every man, regardless of politics, religion, etc. They won't be happy until they've removed us all from any position of power. That's what this is ultimately about: a complete female takeover of everything, reducing men to peonage.

I'm not saying that feminists in general support this, but they're willfully blind to those who really do have that agenda among them. Hiding behind catchphrases like "The Future Is Female."

So you are threadjacking to talk about feminism in general through examples that are not even tangentially related to #MeToo and sexual harrassment or assault.

I'm hardly naive. Naivete is denying the ugly reality of the militant wing of feminism. There are decent feminists, but they haven't rooted out their comrades from the movement who are notorious misandrists, so they are willfully blind.

You have to go back to before all this came out, once it did suddenly Feminist journas didn't use the term about her, but as good as, yes.

https://www.policeprofessional.com/news ... ape-myths/

Take a look at this kind of rhetoric from the year before the scandal.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-41561656

Beyond that she regularly interacted with feminist lobbies and organizations, and gave speeches at them about her crusade. Prior to 2018, feminist journalists called her a feminist, Saunders peddled their rhetoric and framework, took up their cause, spoke at their organizations, accepted their backing, and did not object to them characterizing her work as feminist.

https://www.theguardian.com/law/2014/ma ... -interview

Here's her discussing this issue along with FGM and other womens issues.
Ostro.MOV

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.
