🤦🏻♀️ “NY’s highest court on Thur overturned Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 conviction on felony sex crime charges, a stunning reversal in the foundational case of the #MeToo era.
In 4-3 decision, NY Court of Appeals found trial judge who presided over Weinstein’s case made a crucial mistake, allowing prosecutors to call as witnesses a series of women who said Mr. Weinstein had assaulted them — but whose accusations were not part of the charges against him.”
Papy Cohn-Bendit a un coupable tout trouvé pour expliquer le manque d'enthousiasme autour de Marie Toussaint aux Européennes: "La pseudo-radicalité féministe (toujours la faute des femmes, ndlr): les petites histoires comme Julien Bayou, ce n’est pas très enthousiasmant", persifle l'ex-écolo dans Challenges. Ah, le bon vieux temps, avant metoo...
OMG… Ich hatte ja gar keine Ahnung. Marco Rima - den ich immer als sehr guten Comedian in Erinnerung hatte, ist ein Impfgegner, Schwurbler und macht Witze sehr weit unter der Guertellinie. So schade. 😟
[Podcast] 🎧 Écoutez le 9e épisode de notre podcast « Edwy Plenel, une vie d’enquêtes : l’affaire Baupin »
En 2016, Mediapart ouvre un nouveau champ d'investigation : les violences sexuelles. À l'époque, le mouvement #Metoo n'a pas encore été lancé, il ne le sera qu'un an plus tard aux États-Unis. L'enquête de Lenaïg Bredoux porte à l'époque sur le député écologiste Denis Baupin, contre lequel huit femmes témoignes, puis bientôt quatorze. Elle va marquer le début d'un engagement total du journal sur cette thématique.
#macron décore et fait l'éloge de salopards et de mysogines : où y'a-t-il un truc qui a vrillé dans sa jeune tête ?! 😱
Mes sœurs #femmes vous êtes très gentilles et responsables, ils ne comprennent pas leur chance là.
Mais à un moment ça suffit, il faut aller tout cramer : leurs grosses voitures et leurs façades de grands dégueulasses ! #metoo#violencesfaitesauxfemmes
Per last night's stream, I still maintain that #JackBlack did not get hired to be on #sesamestreet, he just actually found himself at Sesame Street one day and taught Elmo about Octagons and they just happened to record it
« Il y a quelques mois, j’ai recroisé un urgentiste dont on sait qu’il est un prédateur sexuel. Il m’a dit : de toute façon, avec #MeToo, on ne peut plus rien faire »
Selon L'Obs. "Il a su diagnostiquer, des décennies avant Michel Houellebecq, le mal-être masculin dans ses textes", l’encense, sans rire "un proche du président" cité par le journal. "Un cadeau d’adieu à l’artisteautant qu’une tentative de s’arroger un morceau de sa popularité", selon l'hebdomadaire.
Macron va décorer Michel Sardou à L’Elysée en juin, selon L'Obs. "Il a su diagnostiquer, des décennies avant Michel Houellebecq, le mal-être masculin dans ses textes", l’encense, sans rire "un proche du président" cité par le journal (comprendre, soit Bruno-Roger Petit, soit Jonathan Guémas). "Un cadeau d’adieu à l’artisteautant qu’une tentative de s’arroger un morceau de sa popularité", selon l'hebdomadaire.
Radio France a recueilli le témoignage de dix actrices dénonçant le comportement «inapproprié» du cinéaste, en particulier lors des castings pour son film «Toutes nos envies», en 2010.
What turned me against the Free Software movement? It wasn't the tech industry's promises of money and power. It happened before I ever had a job in tech. My moment of radicalization came from an email from Richard Stallman.
@objectinspace When I helped produce a podcast, the only episode that had any traction whatsoever, more than about 30 total downloads, was an interview with a very cantankerous Mr. Stallman, probably because he was #MeToo'ed soon after it came out. I wish I had kept that audio, especially the stuff we edited out where he was haranguing us about various things. LOL

Rep. Tim Walberg is wishing U.S. familes "a happy and most blessed Easter," and to the Palestinians caught in Gaza, he hope Israel would "get it over with quickly," and bomb Gaza ‘like Nagasaki and Hiroshima’
Tim Walberg, a Republican congressman from Michigan, made these comments during a gathering with a small group of his constituents, suggesting that Gaza should be subjected to nuclear bombing like Nagasaki and Hiroshima during World War II.
Walberg argued that the US should not spend money on humanitarian aid in Gaza and instead support Israel, which he referred to as the US's "greatest ally, arguably, anywhere in the world."
His comments have been widely criticized as a call for #genocide
Tim Walberg, a Republican congressman from Michigan, has a history of making controversial and incendiary comments, including questioning the validity of the #MeToo movement, suggesting that the impeachment inquiry into then-President Donald Trump was a "coup," and expressing skepticism about man-made climate change.
@alex@burner I know you quite well, Alex, I distinctly remember the night at a NYE party in 2006 where you said loudly "this bitch wont even know what happened!" I dismissed this as drunken/exhuberant ramblings as I was quite indulged in substances myself until I saw you clearly put a pinch of powder in a womans drink and mumble something about how "millions of cows are sacrificed for mankinds pleasure at the expense of Earth, what difference is it if a woman do the same?" With a depraved, sadistic grin on your face. Unfortunatèly I did not manage to intervene having taken too much xanny to even move but I will never forget the fleeting memories of a woman screaming, pleading for her life before I lost consciousness. I will never forget the forlorn look on other partygoers faces next day and the headline of a local paper "local woman Mary Edwards, 23 missing. Family offering $500 dollar reward for info." No Alex, I know far too much of you! #metoo
It has long been the case that American women are generally more liberal than American men. But among young Americans, this gender gap has widened into an enormous rift: According to recent Gallup polling, there is a 30-point differencebetween the number of women age 18–30 who self-identify as liberal and the number of men in...
I think it’s pretty straightforward why this happens - liberal politics as a hive mind talks to women, but it does not talk to men. Even this piece, look at the following quote.
Actor Johnny Depp sued his ex-wife Amber Heard after she wrote a #MeToo op-ed in the Washington Post; even though the piece didn’t name him, Depp argued that it was defamatory, and legions of his fans (including plenty of women) engaged in a monthslong campaign of vicious harassment, threats, and vilification of Heard and anyone who might stand up for her.
The one case where it was at mutual abuse by both parties, they talk about Depp abusing Heard, but not Heard abusing Depp. That’s why there is a divide. The problem is framed as “violence against women”, instead of “domestic violence against people”.
To be clear, modern society presents all people with new problems. But while generic problems like stagnating wages are being talked about as a generic issue, and women’s issues get space as at least a successful special interest issue, issues disproportionately affecting men don’t. This results in shitheads like Tate fleecing them and fucking up society at large as well.
