(59,501 posts)However, even if you accept the worst possible Franken allegation it is nowhere near the Corfman allegation against Moore or all the stories of him in the mall.
Not to mention, the entire me too movement, freeing many to tell stories they had kept silent out of feat is going to get both the worst offenders and many who did things that - in today's light - are unacceptable.
I suspect that the culture, especially in humor, swung too far. There will be many embarrassed for things they did absolutely not seeing today's consequences.
I suspect that Franken's former career might have made him vulnerable because so much is out there on his past. My 20 something kids and their cousins were speaking of how tough it might be for anyone in their generation. To rum in the future because even anonymous people have so much out there on social media.
