There's been some reaction in some of the more devoted pockets of "redpillism", Ben Garrison had some pretty bog standard stuff to say that is more banal than offensive...until you read the very last sentence (spoilered for content because that last line re: Weinstein really is a loving doozy) : Billy Cosby was released from prison. After all, the feminists had no concrete evidence against the man—just a ‘me too’ pile on. Maybe Weinstein will be sprung next. I presume Rashad will be treated as a victim of a cancel culture pressure campaign that's akshually a show of how racist the tolerant left is, the whole Candace Owens shtick - and maybe I'm overthinking it but whether it's a consensual media blitz or not could be a bit of a revealing look at media attitudes towards women in general.

indiscriminately posted:How has right-wing outrage clickbait media been using the Cosby situation? I'm wondering if he will be a pariah for the rest of his life or if he will achieve a place in the Trump Republican pantheon, which he will surely attempt to do. The right-wing media thread discussed it, but Fox is exuberant over the ruling and hailing it as a victory for men everywhere and a defeat for feminism and #MeToo It's interesting the difference between how happy they are about this versus how mad they were when OJ got away with murder in the 90s. I guess wealthy black men being able to buy the courts like wealthy white men have forever was a new and threatening thing in the 90s but now they're used to it. Or maybe they feel less threatened by the prospect of rich guys being tried for murder than for sexual assault because most of them probably don't have bodies in their basement.

Because if they can't, then a whole bunch of old criminal rich guys can't just do anything that they want and might actually face consequences some day, which gets treated as a worse thing than any offences they actually committed. You see this play out with how the reaction to even the suggestion that there should be consequences gets met with more outrage often than someone actually facing consequences. Also the oj trial hit a whole different racial dynamic cuz his wife was white and feelings wrt OJ's guilt were fairly split along racial lines

I think to some degree there is also like a weird aspirationalness with the discourse around men and rape and the risk of being falsely accused. Like something you'll hear is how men have to be careful now when they try to sleep with a woman. Like this fear of dudes going out to bars and just trying to have a fun time but any little thing being misconstrued. It's a bullshit argument on many levels, but for most men that's not actually that big of an issue because the average person only has sex with like 6-8 people. For the vast majority of people, the times they are initiating sex with a new sexual partner are very, very low over the course of your life. Not that rape can't happen in relationships of course, but more the idea that some hot blooded man on the prowl is going to get screwed over by some random lady on one of their nightly conquests is pretty divorced from how most people live. So, when you get a guy like Cosby on top of relating to a man who has more money and power than they'll ever actually have, you have men basically pretending that our out of control war against men puts people like them who are of course having or had sex with many, many women in danger. And of course you can be a dude who has had many partners and not be lovely, but the idea of status in sexual conquest is toxic and adds another layer of normal people cheerleading wealthy ghouls.

Mellow Seas posted:Literally nobody is defending Castor’s handling of the case. (Even by the ridiculous standard of straw manning that goes on here “libs” should hate Castor because of our alleged sole principle in life, “orange man bad”.) I thought this was obvious but: the way in which he hosed with the case matters. If he beat a confession out of Cosby then it might make sense to say "well we have to let Cosby off now because Castor hosed with the case trying to get him convicted". On the other hand if he tried to protect Cosby by attacking his victim, downplaying the assault, constantly lying about poo poo, etc in order to protect a wealthy rapist, it's pretty gross to go "oh well he hosed with the case so much in order to get a wealthy rapist off that we just have to help him get a wealthy rapist off now". Is that the public policy we want to encourage? If a cop wants to get his criminal friend off, should the cop just be able to make an illegal immunity deal with him so the courts will let the guy off as a "rebuke" to the cop who wanted that outcome from the beginning? Also, Castor's credibility is important because the only evidence we have for this alleged secret oral agreement that contradicted his public statements made at the time and for years afterward, is Castor's word a decade later that it existed, because the only other person who was purportedly present when the deal was made is dead now. So if he's a huge liar, has a record of protecting and defending rapists from consequences both before and after this case, and was clearly hostile to the victim when this supposed deal to help her was allegedly made, we might not want to take his word that this secret unrecorded deal ever existed! Incidentally, that's exactly what the trial court found: that Castor's claims that a secret deal existed weren't credible. VitalSigns fucked around with this message at 06:21 on Jul 9, 2021 |

This New York Time piece on trends in Egyptian authorities abusing power to essentially rape and sexually assault women is very harrowing and worth exploring. I know the paywall sucks, but not linking specific text because it's a whole multi-media thing that I think is worth finagling with. The site also makes the purposeful decision of allowing you hear these women's voices despite language barriers. While it creates a narrative of a history of abuse during examinations and searches including women being complicit and even initiating such things, it is also worth exploring for its first person narratives of brave women speaking about their experiences. It's also a reminder of how rape and abuse are used as tools against dissent and rebellion. Timeless Appeal fucked around with this message at 16:00 on Jul 9, 2021 |

I'm still wondering about Phylicia Rashad. For me The Cosby Show was formative and Rashad is/was Claire Huxtable, the archetype of a stern but wise and fair mother figure. Now she is a dean at a university, a position of influence which leverages this same Claire Huxtable image. She has this position because she is an accomplished public person perceived to be wise and fair. In her position as a dean her decision-making purview may cover interpersonal situations on the spectrum of the things Cosby has done (right?), and it turns out she has a blindspot or at best extremely poor instincts about #metoo. Likely she has social and professional ties to upper-class parents of some young men currently attending her university. And also to male professors. Can she continue to hold a deanship with legitimacy / can she still be an exemplar of wisdom and fairness? My feeling is that she must step down from public duties, there's no plausible reform after "A terrible wrong is being righted- a miscarriage of justice is corrected!" because hoo boy that's a doozy. I think it's similar to disliking Hillary Clinton because of her close, persisting political alliance with Bill Clinton.

That's a good point. From experience, deans and assistant deans exist on a spectrum. The good ones, at least in this dimension, will be clued in about mental illness and sexual assault and how to recognize the signs and also deal with it, not just by covering for themselves and the school, either. They should actually help if they can. It comes from education but also experience. There are best practices to deal with it but also different approaches. What she said is a slap in the face to victims everywhere. Her coming out publicly and saying the fact that this guy with a ton of influence and money got off on a technicality (inasmuch one exists yet might have been created for him personally) despite tons of evidence and a confession and now he can't be retried is a good thing. And I can't reckon with how that squares with her job of dealing with students, parents, faculty and STAFF without it being a massive blind spot as you said. It's not a public relations problem, either. The most important things sexual assault survivors need is to be in control, believed and, if they want, justice. All of that was taken from them in this case.

After having such a deep, long lasting and rewarding professional connection with someone, it's somewhat understandable that Rashad would come to his defense, if partly just to avoid the cognitive dissonance of realizing that she trusted and respected someone for so long who didn't deserve it. But being understandable doesn't mean it's defensible. I don't see how her academic career could survive this. It shows poor judgement in some areas that are really crucial to a dean's role. Like, would she also feel that a student who was widely respected and/or important to student life at Howard deserved the same deference? Because that would be really bad.

I mean, from a purely cynical point of view, you yourself pointed out she has "social and professional ties to upper-class parents of some young men currently attending her university." and we've seen time and again, if there's one thing rich people want from an expensive educational institution, it's a faculty and management willing to go the distance to make sure their sons never face any consequences for the poo poo they do. Coming out and saying what she did about Cosby is honestly probably going to be great for business?

I think the big thing about the Cuomo stuff is that the harassment is being lumped in with the nursing home stuff and misappropriating funds. In short, Cuomo getting any consequence is rooted in the question of if Cuomo misused his power for personal gain in general. Warped numbers to look better and misused money. That's why I feel like him being generally a lovely creep is probably going to be written off unless he straight up raped someone or clearly used his power for sexual favors. Being a sex creep in general is kinda secondary to the abuse of power which is lovely on multiple levels.

Moving away from the realm of powerful men, the Times ran this piece that paints a picture of what many normal victims go through, and it is pretty horrifyingquote:Most New York City prosecutors’ offices rejected a greater percentage of sex crime cases in 2019, the last year for which reliable data is available, than they did roughly a decade earlier, before the case against Harvey Weinstein touched off a national reckoning. I don't love the "despite Metoo" headline as that's not really the movement's job, and it sort of buries the lead on these disgusting numbers playing a role in the recent primary election for DA. quote:Alvin Bragg, a former federal prosecutor who won the Democratic primary for district attorney, making him the heavy favorite to succeed Mr. Vance, has promised to revamp the office’s beleaguered sex crimes bureau. Of course these are all just campaign promises. But I feel like the following anecdote was really worth relaying because it really gives up the game of how rape victims are treated... quote:t was Sept. 30, 2017, and the woman, then a graduate student at Fordham University, had been drinking heavily at her sorority’s party at a venue in Brooklyn. She said she recalled trying to help a drunk friend in the bathroom, when, she said, a male friend came in and raped her. (The Times does not publish the names of rape victims unless they choose to be identified.) tl:dr: A woman is raped, there is a witness, witness beats up the rapist, rapist also admits it and there are witnesses to him being a rapist, and the only charge is an assault charge on the guy who beat him up. I think what we really need to consider though when we discuss the difficulty of proving rape cases is how much are the prosecutors actually doing the legwork, but also how much would it matter if they did. Think of it this way, even if the cases fail, having the police dig into your poo poo is scary and an inconvenience. Maybe the case doesn't go anywhere, but we know how just being investigated for a crime can take its toll on people. It acts as a deterrent by itself.

Not sure that's true- it is extremely hard to prove rape in a court of law, which is absolutely by design. The idea is that even if you somehow end up with DAs and prosecutors who actually want to try and charge rape cases, they're going to find it impossible to actually get those cases over the line.

I feel like the current Activision-Blizzard situation is definitely worth getting into here. It's actually an interesting case study for multiple reasons. There are a lot of good pieces on it, but this CNet article is a good primer if you're not familiar.quote:When dozens of Activision Blizzard employees staged a walkout on Wednesday it was the latest update in a troubling week for the company behind Call of Duty and World of Warcraft. Activision Blizzard has been rocked by an explosive lawsuit filing last week when the state of California accused it of workplace discrimination against its female workforce. The story is horrifying, but I think symbolic of a different kind of story in which not one powerful man is abusing his power, but a toxic is culture allowed abuse on a mass scale which led to the suicide of an employee. It's such a horrible story that the particular horrible experiences like the treatment of Black women can be lost in the shuffle per The Washington Post. quote:The court complaint against Activision Blizzard claims that Black women were “micromanaged” and forced to justify short breaks and requests for time off, while no other workers were required to do so. It also said Black women at the company were singled out for their “body language” and scolded for asking for help when other employees did not receive similar treatment. Regulators also accuse the company of making hiring decisions based on women’s looks. I think the story is a useful case study and point of discussion for a few reasons: --Like I said, it speaks to issues of rape culture over tales of one corrupt man, the broader point of MeToo. --California is actually doing something and this might actually serve as a model of how good government can effectively impact this sort of thing. --I think most importantly, this reminds us that rape culture is not an issue of the character of certain individuals. Like racism or capitalism, it is a disease that infects many parts of our nation. Just like racism and capitalism are separate forces, but inherently intertwined ones, so is rape culture, fundamentally making it a labor issue, but not something that can only be viewed through a labor and class based lens. I think that it is heartening to see Activision-Blizzard employees use traditional labor organization practices to further put pressure on the company. I think it also brings up a topic that really should be given more focus: Forced Arbitration, one of the main things Activision-Blizzarrd employees are demanding ends. Banning Forced Arbitration would not only be huge for labor in general, but specifically would neuter the ability of companies to protect abusers. We have seen some headway on this with the banning of federal contractors using forced arbitration, and the FAIR Act would end it on a broader scale. It's one of the main things labor attorneys lobby for.

The report is out and says what everyone expected it do although my understanding is that there are confirmed cased discovered beyond the initial accusations. I don't think I recall the state trooper allegation before. I'm linking the updating CNN article because it includes political reactions that I know people are interested in, fairly. For what it's worth, we are actually hearing calls for resignation from the Majority Leader and the Assembly Speaker probably getting a sore butt from fence sitting, describing the report as actions that would make someone not fit for office. I think the question now in terms of consequences is if there are people actively trying to push Cuomo to resign and if he doesn't, will they impeach. I think my broader frustration is that outside of the harassment issues, Cuomo already has a bunch of impeachable actions. It's similar to Trump in sort of holding out to get all the bad stuff, and that's obviously the most good faith interpretation of events. But a bunch of women proved to the world that what they experienced was true and that does matter despite whatever else happens. Also gently caress Cuomo.

I don't think anyone's going to be shocked by the report - the battle lines are mostly already drawn, I think. We're a considerable way away from an election cycle, so not being familiar with gubernatorial politics, what happens at this point if Cuomo resigns? I have to presume that there's some republican toad waiting in the wings for their shot at the seat, but who are the dems going to run? Is this a special election situation or does the state legislature just appoint someone until the next election? Are we going to get pressure campaigns of "if you think Cuomo should step down/be impeached then you want a current democrat position filled by a republican, do you?!" With all that's been explicitly laid out in the report, it's going to be a wild ride watching how the state and media apparatuses move forward. The nursing home poo poo wasn't enough to kill Cuomo, I really don't know if this can either.
