@JoeBSucks @M_Jensen23 @JillFilipovic After she was “raped” a woman asked him through a Facebook page if he was relationship material and she referred to him as smart, funny, and not all bad rather than rapist. Why would someone do that ya think?
English
The same men who made names for themselves accusing people of war crimes, corruption, defamation, fraud, censorship, and so on carve out a special exception for men they like who are accused of rape, who unlike everyone *they’ve* ever reported on, should be presumed innocent until proven guilty and seen their crimes adjudicated in a court of law before they see any political or personal consequences. Curious.
English
Is that why Donald Trump posted a long rambling dance on Rob Reiner’s grave? A fucking movie producer. Or why he emphasized how happy he was that Robert Mueller was dead on multiple occasions? Did the Jew hatred make him do it? The thing about still being a Trump supporter is you cannot not oppose any action, speech, or post on moral grounds without exposing yourself as being an absolute muppet brained hypocrite.
English
I’m sure she will delete this later. This is what Jew hatred does to your brain.

@shannonrwatts @benryanwriter AOC walked out from behind a bar and took her seat in Congress. Platner served four combat tours in GWOT.
English
@benryanwriter Maybe Boebert? But I think her appeal was being “hot.” Maybe MTG. None that I can think of on Dem side.

“Patriarchy gives us different expectations and standards for men and women. I mean, does anyone think a woman with no political experience, tattoos and a history of alcohol abuse who said dumb things on the internet would be able to raise tens of millions of dollars and become a major party Senate candidate?" pressherald.com/2026/07/12/pla…

@MatNuclear Lindsey Graham perpetuated violence as a Senator who advocated for, funded, and then celebrated the deaths of millions of people on the other side of the world. Some people or going to celebrate the end of that.
English
Don’t ever lecture us about how much you love innocent Palestinians or human life.
You guys love death and violence, hence you stand for those that perpetuate it.
Ana Kasparian@AnaKasparian
Good riddance.
English
@lyndseyfifield He was a hateful warmonger who spent his entire political career advocating for and celebrating the deaths of people on the other side of the world. His death doesn’t change any of that.
English
Thinking about how absolutely vile many of you have been to Lindsey Graham during his life—and will continue to be in his death.
Few realize he became an orphan and raised his young sister while he was in college—the first of his family to earn higher education.
He was a good, brilliant, self-deprecating man with consistent principles who leaves a legacy of tirelessly working for the people of South Carolina. Praying for Darline—the sister he raised—and all who loved him.
English
@shannonrwatts Uh huh. Me Too went so well for everybody the first by all means let’s run that back. You people are insufferable.

Sorry for the late reply, I was reading this article

@Remroum What is the date of this tweet?

@CheyenneHuntCA They could be sued for printing something they knew to be false with “actual malice”, not simply for printing something they can’t prove. If they had actual corroborating evidence they should have printed some of that maybe.
English
It's becoming clear that the manosphere doesn't understand how journalism or the legal system works on a fundamental level. These women provided corroborating evidence strong enough to overcome the legal review at major publications, which could have been sued for printing unsubstantiated claims. If Platner truly believed these claims to be defamatory, he could have sent cease-and-desist letters or sued 1) me 2) the outlets or 3) the women. None of that has happened. If you're upset that we're back in a world where we fight for women and refuse to elect predators, you're going to have to get used to it because we're just getting started.

This is the return of the #MeToo standard, which is to reflexively “believe women” and to render judgement without any investigation, scrutiny, critical faculty, or criminal trial—in short, the accusation is the evidence. It was bad then, and bad now. Don’t let them revive it.
English
There is absolutely no way to prove anything did or did not happen five years ago. It was definitely an odd time to be afraid to go public considering we were coming out of peak believe all women hysteria. Even more odd to curl up next to a deranged blackout drunk animal who just broke in your home, raped you, and then passed out.
English
@mtracey @CheyenneHuntCA Pls use your innate human logic. It’s helpful here. Politico is fairly competent at avoiding defamation lawsuits. It’s because they have a process. Furthermore, it stands to reason that Platner would sue if it is defamation. And yet he has not
Can you connect the dots?

Americans are stepping up and destroying Flock cameras nationwide.
This is exquisite.
English
Donald Trump has such contempt for his own supporters that he took 7 billion dollars from them in a crypto scam. Greatest con man of all time. Totally immune from any criminal or tax liabilities forever. Just rubbing their fucking faces in it. Only in America.
English
Attacks like what? Legitimate questions like why would you sleep next to a man that raped you after a home invasion? Or wait five years to go public? Or go public, not like the initial response and then go public again with more serious allegations? You’re going to have to answer some questions if you want to convict a man of rape based on nothing but allegations.
English
@0bviousish @JillFilipovic There has already been scrutiny and her testimony has stood up to it.
No woman would open herself up to the vitriol spewed at them for accusing someone of rape just for funsies or a personal grudge. The attacks on the victim far outweigh any support they receive for speaking up
English
Thank Israel for what? Iarael has been fighting their neighbors for 78 years and our ongoing financial and military support has only cost us unnecessary blood and treasure. This nonsense drives people crazy. Not only are we supposed to cut checks, burn piles of money, and bury our dead defending them, we have to thank them for the privilege.
English
Respectfully my friend, all I said below was that Israel has been on the front lines for 78yrs fighting Islamism. And we all in the West owe Israel our thanks. And btw, I do not believe Israel is committing genocide, I do not believe Israel is “occupying” Palestinians, I opposed from the beginning Trump’s war against Iran, and I’m not at all a fan of Netanyahu. Thanks
Wajahat Ali@WajahatAli
Israel is committing genocide and occupying the Palestinians. Netanyahu and Trump have forced America into an unwinnable war in Iran. Why do you support this insane regime?
English
@PNWSelina @mtaibbi If she told a hundred people it happened can we just have somebody drive to his house and shoot him in the face?
English
That just speaks to whether or not such statements are admissible as evidence. It doesn’t mean such a person sending a contemporaneous note is “corroborating” his or her own story.
Karen@BlueKitten1224
@mtaibbi Actually in this context it is. It falls under he hearsay exception ‘present sense impression’ The Texas rule is 803(1)
English
@CelticsBeam @luke_tagle @mtaibbi You’re confusing investment with crypto pump and dump scam. About 2/3 of retail investors lost almost 7 billion combined. That’s what he thinks of people who support him. It’s like he knows they are so fucking stupid that he’s not even afraid to rub their face in it.
English
English
Unless he didn’t do it, right? Or is that no longer considered a possibility?
David Axelrod@davidaxelrod
In the end, Platner chose as his closing act a page right out of @realDonaldTrump's tawdry playbook. Deny. Deflect. Refuse responsibility. Play the martyr; slime your accusers. Platner built an admirable movement. But there was nothing admirable about the way he said goodbye.
English
@benigma2017 Yes people that believe in the whole innocent until proven guilty thing or just expect criminal accusations to stand up to even the slightest amount of scrutiny. People like me.
English
Its a weird coincidence that all the people defending Ryan Grim for his rape apologia also publicly announce on their pages that they think Graham Platner's accuser is lying.
Weird. Almost like Ryan fed red meat to an angry mob.
Valerie Jenkins@Sospanfach3
@benigma2017 @ryangrim Enough "what aboutism". His criticism of Politico was justified
English
@benigma2017 I believe he is still POTENTIALLY innocent. Because all we have is vague accusations. See how that works?
English
@0bviousish Once again there is a 100% correlation between people defending Ryan Grim for “just asking questions” and people who believe Platner is innocent.
English
@0bviousish And in doing so Grim threw red meat to the rape denial mob.
Great job.
