Oh no, not another Bernie connection to legitimizing rape.

jfc The same terrific judgment that brought us the Platner endorsement. Whenever rape is at stake, we can count on Senator Sanders to be on the rapists' side.

Probably should have made Bernie persona non grata when everyone discovered his old weird essay about women and rape fantasies

You know the unwritten rule: Rape is a treat for men. If you object, you're a prude and a bigot who doesn't care about The Cause [insert Cause here--it pointedly never includes human rights for women]. That's why Delores Huerta kept silent for decades about C茅sar Chavez raping her repeatedly.

Exactly, and it's why I sideeye men who decide to opine on women and rape kink, because they're always a little too enthusiastic about the concept.

People justified it as just another of his dumb takes from the 1960s, even as nobody ever asked him about what he wrote back then.
