So I should avoid criticizing Trump because you perceive it as politically motivated? No thanks. I'm gonna call a douchebag a douchebag. I'm not sure under what circumstances you think it would be ok to speak facts about a public figure without being accused of being a Joe Biden shill.
I don't know what Brand article you're talking about - the Times investigation? I read the details and they're pretty damn rapey.
Anyway the whole point was not what Brand allegedly did with a sixteen year old girl decades ago, although it sounds horrible, but the immediate unthinking jump to his defense by a bunch of men who are all identified as being on the right of the political spectrum. I'm not indulging in any personal bias here, just reporting facts--that's where this culture of sexism is primarily being promoted .If that readily demonstrable assertion is too binary for your taste, then we can about the lefties justifying sexual assault.
