What sexual assault you are talking about? I must have missed it.People who brag about sexual assault don't get to hug my wife, most other people are OK but keep your hips back.

Man I remember when the left had a sense of humor. Like...do you guys get that he's not literally threatening to hit you with a golf ball? It's just friendly competition sort of thing. Childish? Sure, but life is not that serious. Politics needs a little lightening up every now and then.
You have missed that Trump has bragged about sexually assaulting women? Really? Or do you just refuse to accept modern definitions of sexual assault, and are going to argue semantics?

The Natasha Stoynoff incident completes nearly all components of a modern sexual assault.
Do we really need to re-up the Access Hollywood video for you? It was kind of a big deal, how could you possibly have missed it?
Well. That wasn't bragging about sexual assault, but that's by the by. The point is that the link clearly isn't an example of what it was seemingly claimed to be.

How do you see someone making an unproven claim as him bragging about it?
No, I think this comment is fine, because you are right. I am indeed blaming the victims (those who are actively complicit, not those who would want to change what is happening) for taking part in the system, as everybody should.The line at the bottom should read, "Queue the inevitable blaming the (female) victim comments."
Are you seriously claiming the people who tell victims to stay quiet are "trying to help them"? Because they're not helping, they're complicit in keeping the system in place, a person who truly wanted to help, would ruffle as many feathers as possible to bring the system down to stop this accepted form of victimization all-together.and the people who try to help the victims
No, this is BS. If we assume this sort of stuff is only half as prevalent as we think it is, then both of them must have been aware of the fact that it happens to other women, too, and by telling her to step away from it, they have actively made the decision to not take the action that would have had the potential to make the overall situation for everybody, not just the one person they care about.Let's separate between motivation and outcome. The professor and the editor who told her to clam up and walk away where trying to look out for her best interests. That their individualized responses make the aggregate worse doesn't change that their motivation was to help the victim in that incident.
It's an example where each person behaving rationally makes the aggregate worse. This happens all the time.
They don't actively contribute to the situation at all, at best they have some minor influence on how society views the situation.And you should totally rewrite your[mental] list so that you're not only including victims and their confidants. Right upthread, we have multiple people poo-poohing sexual assault. They're vastly more complicit than any individual victim being insufficiently heroic for your taste.

The link provides context to what he said.
I'm also not sure how it's not bragging about sexual assault to say that being a star means you can start kissing women and grabbing their genitals, and they won't resist? What would you call that?
I know you think of this as 'an unproven claim', and I am not going to argue evidence with someone with that type of attitude regarding sexual assault.
