DALROCK: Feminists get sick on their own dog food.
All of this was a huge misstep by feminists, an unforced error. Just a few weeks ago they were methodically advancing their new rules for handling sexual assault on campus which place a huge burden on the accused. They even had many conservatives signing on to California’s new Yes Means Yes law in the deluded hope that it would usher in a post-hookup sexual marketplace. Now they are a sad, stinking, wretched mess, trying to figure out how to undo the damage they did to their own cause.
One thing strikes me as fairly certain; I don’t think feminists have learned their lesson.
A handful might have, but there are plenty of others who didn’t:
- “Ultimately, though, from where I sit in Charlottesville, to let fact checking define the narrative would be a huge mistake.”
- “While the details of this one case may have been misreported, this does not erase the somber truth this article brought to light.”
Such strict adherence to The Narrative (also known as a lie) will only let such people be taken in by the next boy who cried wolf.
