10. Respect towards women is only necessary when you have no money to offer them
11. It's more important to protect sexual predators keeping you in business than to practice what you preach to your fans
12. Every democratic institution is cut from the same cloth
13. Hypocrisy is to liberals, as hockey is to Canadians
14. It's better to mock politicians for their sense of chivalry, than it is to cast out moguls for their predatory behavior and then ask "where have all the good men gone"?

The congress people and football players are all equally whores. The main lesson to be learned is that people who want to succeed in industries where there are very few available positions, will put up with incredible amounts of shit to achieve success in those fields. I sympathize with all the victims who were genuinely wronged, but it is also clear that a lot of powerful people looked the other way, who had no excuse such as a young innocent with no money or reputation. But it also must be said that in the same way you have many Republican congress people who cowardly washed their hands of Trump's bullshit and Democratic congress people who did the same with Hillary, as well as NFL football players and owners who have forgotten why our nation dumped tea into the sea in the first place... it's like the old saying... Power corrupts absolutely and most people don't have the strength to walk away or whistle blow when confronted with losing these coveted positions.

soundbites, convenient generalizations in less than 280 characters, and trending topics on social media are the new opiate of the masses.
