Senator McCarthy would be proud of today's Feminists


They've got women in a paranoid rape hysteria having convinced them that rapists are waiting for them around every corner or that every man is just a couple decisions away from becoming a rapist and thus all men need to be "taught not to rape." A few rapists on campus, in their eyes, is an indication that universities are infested with them like a plague. And when it comes to rape allegations, they believe firmly in guilty-until-proven-innocent and if a man cannot absolutely prove that he DIDN'T do it then it MUST mean that he did.

Ah yes. Senator McCarthy would be proud.

I am pretty sure that given the times, Senator McCarthy would not have given credence to second class citizens.

However, the draconian measures that have destroyed due process are McCarthy-like.

A few is kind of too many. How would you feel if a guy raped you? But he was only 1 of 3 guy rapists on campus? Would you be OK with it?

3 rapists does not equal an epidemic of campus rape. That's the point.

reply

3 rapists per campus is not epidemic? 1 rapist per campus is too many.

reply

Rape has been on a general decline for decades. There is no epidemic.

Joseph McCarthy fought the good fight. It's predominantly Soviets, sympathizers thereof and seditious agents who thought or think otherwise: Democrats (Marxists, hippies, socialists, hipsters, cultural marxists, Muslim-sympathizing atheists and social justice warriors; people who stand against liberty, law and order). In addition, it is wrongful to equate him with feminism, either which way you see him or feminists.
