sincerely: I probably was overly harsh in my language, but practically who do you think helps more women dealing with the trauma of sexual assault on a daily basis? Rose or worker orgs primarily composed of women? (most public school teachers are women). I'm not talking about democrats here! I have no problem with what she's said about democrats! It'd just be nice if she didn't lump in one of the few last remaining orgs able to exert any kind of worker power with them :(

Agreed it would be nice if she agreed with me on everything and was a perfect revolutionary but I will settle for her being an imperfect person being impossibly brave in the face of insanely demented and evil people with vast means at their disposal used to attempt her total personal and professional ruination and will support her efforts to bring down as many powerful creeps as possible

It is in fact her specific bravery you reference here that is what confuses me. If she is willing to speak truth to power when it comes to previously untouchable subjects, why does she fall in line with every other wealthy californian when it comes to education?

because she's rich dumbass

material conditions don't suddenly not matter because she has correctly recognized that the democrats are a vile cesspit of rapist monsters. because someone agrees with her there doesn't mean everyone agrees with everything she's ever done or said on any topic, ever. and gently caress if I were here and had the entirety of the democratic party fight on the side of my rapist because they were all buddies who loved to hang out at fancy gala dinners and then take the lolita express to private islands to go rape kids I too would do find any ally I could in order to try and gently caress them up. who gives a poo poo what mcgowan thinks of teachers unions. christ.

To further explain my point: the thread that ties together all the things that Rose has went through is class. the sickos that assaulted her and tried to ruin her life wouldn't have been protected/still protected if they didn't have the wealth they have! ergo making these people less wealthy would help make them less invulnerable, thus my confusion at her not choosing this path of attack

you're spending your time and posting energy to nitpick the finer political views of the rape victim, the meme is hyperbole to highlight the absurd participation in rape culture when you join in the chorus of insufferable monsters doing the same thing you are instead of doing literally anything else. you don't have to attack rose for being a rich person. you're choosing to.

Everyone agrees that she'd have different opinions if her class wasn't rich. She has good opinions for someone who's class is that high, but obviously not perfect. Everyone is rallying in support for her because she's a rape victim going after her accusers and their collaborators - not because she's against the teachers union of California.

Rose is still redeemable politically imo https://twitter.com/rosemcgowan/status/1437269854940135429

Not to justify the endorsement but I can see why she may have felt that word would have gotten out more about Newsom's gross connections as a result

Also she's a real person and not fake like every other Hollywood dipshit so her saga is interesting much like glenn

I scream and shout gently caress YOU! to every rape victim in the imperial core for this reason, too. Yes, they did get raped, but they are complicit in thousands of rapes and even murders in the Southern periphery, so they only deserve my scorn.

obviously the class criticism is fundamentally correct, and the reason she's so politically weird is because she's understands a truth that liberalism can't digest. I mean maybe she can eventually discover and understand a class analysis of her predicament but as she's a rich actress I'm not going to bet on it. unfortunately I think she'll just end up as one of those post-hippy cali cranks with contradictory political views. I'd be happy to be proven wrong, though

Eh, if the topic is How To Stop This Impending Nuclear Meltdown, I probably wouldn't give much time to any opinions she puts forth, but I'm also not going to completely dismiss her for not being a nuclear physicist when the topic is actually Gavin Newsome: Threat or Menace, one where she does have some tragically relevant experience!

Like, fine, she's wrong about teachers' unions. Hell, she's even wrong about Larry Elder being a desirable political candidate through any lens whatsoever. But I certainly can't blame her for wanting the family that was complicit in her abuse destroyed by whatever means, and I see neither any reason nor any opportunity to otherwise solicit her for political advice.

Anyway, I don't live in California so my opinion on the whole thing is worth substantially less than hers regardless.

this conversation started because she trashed teachers unions introducing a candidate at a political event. specifically noting that fighting against teachers unions was a positive thing about the candidate. do you think that's like the same thing has combing over all of her tweets trying to cancel her or w/e?

That is unfortunately my worry, because the more she gets into electoral politics the more she'll be surrounded with who are a lot more gung-ho about crushing organized labor than they are actually seeing any sort of justice for victims of sexual assault/rape. A concern which I'm honestly surprised has people here on my home forum so angry, like, isn't half the succ zone thread about dems campaigning on feminist stances then being just as lovely as usual?

also isn't it just a catch 22 because um she is a high profile person as a result and is bringing attention to the issue that underprivileged people are not able to, so that puts her in a unique position for better and worse because it's not an either/or
