Ed12:Your reply is a classic example of misogyny, gaslighting, and projection. You don't treat a woman the way you want to treat her, you treat her the way she deserves to be treated - with respect, dignity, and equality. You don't get to decide what is best for her, or what she needs or wants. You don't get to impose your patriarchal and toxic views on her, or anyone else. You don't get to silence her voice, or invalidate her feelings. You don't get to abuse her, or justify your abuse. Seriously, take a hard look at yourself, and realize how harmful and wrong your attitude and behavior are. You need to educate yourself on human rights, and healthy relationships, and you need to seek professional help, and work on your issues, or you might just end up alone and miserable with this toxic mentality. |

basilico:You seem to think I'm some die-hard Carroll fanatic, clinging to her every word. LOL. Relax, I'm simply admiring the flaws in your analysis. You see, it's all well and good to wave your dismissive paw, but where's the engagement with the actual evidence and arguments she presents? Don't tell me you're afraid to tumble down the rabbit hole of logic, are you? I see you still insist on playing the 'mentally sick woman' card. How cliché of you. And the article that you linked to is chock full of logical fallacies, ad hominem attacks, and unsubstantiated claims. By the way, E. Jean isn't some random internet nobody. She's a published author and veteran Elle columnist with a 26-year track record. But hey, facts are the enemy of a good witch hunt, right? And let's not forget, she's just one of over 20 women who accused Trump of similar behavior. But sure, let's focus on her tweets because...reasons? And speaking of tweets, Carroll did not admit to deleting her tweets, but to archiving them. She explained that she did so to protect her privacy and safety, as some of the tweets contained personal information or abusive messages. But before you erupt with "censorship!" cries, consider this: those tweets are still lurking, like digital ghosts, ready to be summoned as evidence if need be. Furthermore, she claimed that Trump damaged her reputation and career by calling her a liar and implying that she was too unattractive to rape. The death threats she received on Twitter were a consequence of Trump's defamatory statements, not a motive for her lawsuit. Oh, and while you're busy dissecting Carroll's fashion sense, you're missing the bigger picture. The dress isn't a museum exhibit, it's a symbol of courage, worn proudly like a warrior's armor. She didn't don it to impress Vogue editors in 2019, but to stare down her accuser and the world. Now, about that 1994 label mix-up? Let's not get hung up on fashion faux pas when we're talking about something far more profound. It's like nitpicking the wallpaper in a burning building. Focus on the flames, big guy, not the decor. Thus far, all you've continued to do is make a barrage of accusations, while employing common tactics used to discredit and silence survivors of sexual assault, and it reflects the rape myths that pervade our culture. One of the rape myths that you seem to endorse is that rape is caused by the perpetrator's uncontrollable sexual urge, and that women who dress or act provocatively are inviting or deserving of rape. This is what Carroll was challenging when she said that rape is not sexy, but a violent crime. She was not implying that she enjoyed being raped, as you suggest, but that she was trying to cope with the trauma and stigma of being a survivor. She was also exposing the hypocrisy and double standards that exist in our society, where women are expected to be sexually attractive, but not sexually assertive. Your replies so far read more like clear attempts to discredit and silence Carroll, who is one of the many women who have accused Trump of sexual misconduct. |

basilico:Has he though? Because the submission of your reddit buddy is brimming with more logical leaps than a kangaroo at the Olympics. Judge objected to this line of questioning, and also refused defence to present her Anderson Cooper interview where she said rape is sexy.So, the judge said no to chitchat, and suddenly it's game over? Do you think legal systems operate on whims and tea breaks? Because newsflash, they don't. Now moving on to your reddit companion... Jean Carroll lied and based her entire accusation on a Law and Order SVU episode.Interesting accusation. We'll be examining its' merits shortly. Don't panic, I brought receipts.I hope he also has a PowerPoint presentation and laser pointer. First there is this moment on the news where she begins to waffle on her claim and states that the alleged encounter with (a certain orange person) "was not sexual" and "he did not push me down and ravish me" she goes on to say, even more bizarrely, "most women would find rape sexy" and "think of the 'rape' fantasies, Anderson."Let me just interject here because I think your friend has misrepresented Carroll's interview with Anderson Cooper here, where she said that "most people think of rape as being sexy" and that "they've tried it in their head". She did not explicitly say that rape is sexy or that she fantasizes about it. She was trying to explain the psychological phenomenon of rape myths, which are false beliefs that justify or minimize sexual violence. By distorting her words, your friend is only creating a straw man argument that is easier to attack than her actual position. Remember those last two quotes and hold on to your pants because this is where it gets interesting.Oh boy! The anticipation is killing me! Just blurt it out already! I managed to come across minutes 41-45 of Law & Order Special Victims Unit Season 13 - Episode 11 "Theatre Tricks" (The entire premise of the episode is a "RAPE FANTASY" gone wrong as well as other "rape fantasies"Okay, so let me get this straight. He claims Jean Carroll's story is a Law & Order rip-off, but the only evidence he can offer is his hunch and a healthy dose of skepticism. Interestingly enough, he has already admitted that he KNOWS there is a photo of Carroll and Trump together in the 1980s, which is basically the receipt for their 80s meet-cute, but he conveniently chooses not to involve this fact in his analysis. LOL. Is it possible Carroll's accusation landed somewhere on the truth spectrum, with a few embellishments sprinkled on like confetti? Or maybe Trump tangoed with "inappropriate" instead of a full-blown foxtrot of felony? The point is, this ain't a choose-your-own-adventure with two predictable endings (false dilemma). There's a whole buffet of possibilities out there, and forcing a "pick one" just screams intellectual laziness. This reddit clown accomplishes nothing special except quote Carroll out of context, omitting the parts where she clarifies that she was raped and that she does not find rape sexy. He also ignores the fact that she filed a defamation lawsuit against Trump, not a criminal charge of rape. Then he compares her accusation to a fictional scenario from a TV show, and suggests that she made it up for attention or revenge. This is far from an honest analysis. It's a complete distortion and oversimplification of Carroll's case, neglecting to address the actual issues and evidence. Please tell your reddit buddy that the next time he tries to debunk someone, he should maybe bring more than just his gut feeling and a vague pop culture analogy or reference. Otherwise, he'll end up looking like he borrowed Sherlock Holmes' hat, but forgot the magnifying glass (and the deduction skills). I'm now in the process of cross referencing more quotes and stories of hers with that episode. Will update if I find more.Given his most recent efforts, I won't be holding my breath. Case will be overturned on appeal Liberal tears will cause a sea level rise dwarfing melting of glaciers from global warming.You spin a yarn of overturned convictions, liberal tears causing tsunamis, and sea levels rising higher than Kanye West's ego. It's a doozy of a prediction, but one that relies more on dramatic flair than, you know, actual facts. Appreciate my intelligence.See how the two hoaxes I fused within one post resonate 😁😁😁I appreciate your ability to make me laugh, even if it's unintentional. I also have the receipts. Here's the owner ofSo, Carroll likes unusual pet names. Big deal. Judging someone's morality or mental stability based on their pet names is more suited for a Disney villain origin story than a serious argument. |

within which is a scene describing the exact same event as Ms. Carroll asserts she experienced.
