We're being purposefully divided, people. Men, Women. Gays, Straights. PoC's, Whites ... and now it's also 'dividing the left from the media' ...

The RussianRight are pulling out ALL THE STOPS, and it could not be a MORE OBVIOUS foreign-based propaganda assault on our friggin' unity, ahead of November, cause they KNOW they're LOSING.

People are people ... they make judgement errors about 'the level of affections of others' ... especially when intoxicated. The Right knows they can take advantage of our extreme 'oversensitivity' when it comes to 'not acting PERFECT AT ALL TIMES', and they're f***ing leveraging it for all it's worth, and MANY are falling for it.

It's past time to start ignoring bullshit of this nature.

Shame on Slate, and BOO on this post.

Just sayin' ... this is getting OLD ... QUICK.

It's ridiculously easy for our enemies to leverage common 'grievances' that either gender has against the other, times where they were made to feel 'uncomfortable' or 'inadequate' or WHATEVER by someone of the opposite sex.

And our side are complete suckers for it, because we're all about everybody acting PERFECTLY PC at ALL TIMES.

We're being PLAYED, that's what I'm saying.

They want us to equate 'the media' in the form of Brokaw making a couple of minor mistakes 20+ years ago ... to being similar to Trump, who 19 women have come forward claiming he molested them ... and who also claimed he basically has carte-blanche to grope genitals of any woman he wants cause he's famous ... and who 'inspected the merchadise' by walking into the changing rooms full of 18-25 year old women at 'his' beauty pageants ... when in reality, these are WILDLY different situations. At least, as far as we now have reason to believe.
