@StillIRise1963 If you are Russell Brand, get a fake-ass baptism, then carry on as it never happened. So many people knew his game, and abetted.

@StillIRise1963 variations on it are also very very common.

So much of what ails us about modern life is far too many people chasing money/security who pretend they "can't know for sure" what's going on.

It's a variation on that same "moderate" denial that keeps all the "isms" in place.

The white moderate who still isn't sure police are routinely brutal to POC, the male who isn't sure sexism still exists.

It's utter cowardice disguised as being polite.

@cjpaloma Yep. That’s why it has to happen to white people for them to get it. So, strap on your helmet.

@StillIRise1963
I question the character of people who shield or defence abusers, I am always left wondering....are they hiding similar behaviour?

StillIRise1963, 25 days ago

@Snowshadow Same. I don’t see how a decent person can look the other way.

@StillIRise1963 I wondered that even more with R Kelly. It went on for years and so many people shielded him

StillIRise1963, 25 days ago

@Danetteb I don’t get it.

Danetteb, 25 days ago

@StillIRise1963 me either. I feel heartbroken for the women who suffer abuse with these men and there are people who could help just standing there looking

StillIRise1963, 25 days ago

@Danetteb And then, they don’t support the woman when she tells the truth about what’s gone on when they fucking know it’s true.🤬
