I refuse to be gaslit by people who were minimizing and dismissing domestic violence and smearing survivors less than two months ago. The thing is, I could almost believe the prior defenses were sunk cost fallacy in action if not for the fact that they were so fucking GLEEFUL about it. They loved telling women that rape apologia and serial cheating and violence against women were things we just needed to sit down and shut up about and accept as “not a big deal”. They wanted to put women in our “place” and now are stuck because there’s still a line that is a bridge too far (I’m personally shocked after everything else and cynically think this is only being taken so seriously because there’s something even worse they don’t want to come out), so forgive me if I’m not going to accept the “we stand with survivors”/“this is too important to ignore” bullshit platitudes.
[And yes obviously the Nazi tattoo was first and should have been disqualifying on its own but since the gaslighters haven’t conceded that I’m focusing on their about-face on violence against women]
