"... had it with the reflexive and unnuanced sense of outrage ..."

If you really want to be a proper liberal, you must develop not just your outrage, but your nuanced sense of outrage.

There was a story set to break a few weeks ago in the New York Times about some high profile Broadway people that never did. I saw this on a Broadway chat board. Wonder if some of them were pedophiles.

“...series of ad hoc and sometimes unproven accusations.”

Translation:

Uh...too many leftists are getting caught up in this. We better take it down a notch so we are only taking out male students in universities.

Yes, the pound me too movement is now dangerous . . . because the idiot liberals realize they’re getting hammered by it

"No--It's hurting Democrats much more than Republicans. "

BINGO. The WrongWay Gang were taking potshots at Trump and inadvertently shot their own bloated a$$es

I’m still waiting for someone to release the names of the harassers in congress who have had their cases paid for by the taxpayers.

The left started this movement, hoping to take down Trump, but it ended up taking down mainly liberals. That’s why the #metoo movement has pretty much ended.

Men, now increasingly loathe to being accused of a hyped-up allegation of sexual misconduct for any type of even mild advance towards women, begin to limit their contact with women (i.e., dates).

Meaning women are beginning to notice losing access to “free stuff” (drinks, meals, gifts, etc.). They (even feminists) still like that of the “patriarchy.”

Did he brush up against her butt?
Did he touch her butt?
Did he grab her butt?
Did her hang on a while?
What did he say while doing this?

I remember when I was a child watching a movie about Dr. Peter Marshall. “A Man Called Peter” was the title, I think. Very good biography of his life.

Thanks for the sermon excerpt.

Well, it served its purpose (Roy Moore) and is proving ineffectual against President Trump, so ...

Time to shelve it and try something else.

Like I said. If the ladies think they are mad now just wait until men stop paying attention to them.

This was started to hurt PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP. Instead, it’s snared a bunch of leftie bedwetters.

some feminists are feeling that this whole moment could be coming off the hinges.

Translation: most of the men being exposed as predators are liberals, which goes against the feminist narrative, so it's time to shut the revelations down. Feminists don't actually care if men harass women, as long as the men are liberals who pay lip service to feminist ideals and vote Democrat.

They need to shut this down so that they can start building up that creeper Joe Biden for 2020.
