severing one's attachments to and decentering heterosexuality is just as important a part of any lefty straight person's political development as severing attachments to and decentering whiteness is to any white lefty's political development

rather than deconstruct the patriarchal ideology that dehumanizes women and by extension degrades men who are perceived as similar to women they prefer to pin the blame on women for the inevitable consequences of the violent system men created and actively choose to maintain

when men say they “aren’t allowed to cry” they mean they are allowed to cry, but when they do people treat them the same way they treat women

MAGA has been very clear it supports sexual violence, especially against children, & hates victims & their supporters who hold predators accountable. So this panders well to that ideology.
Vance: "And now the media and the Democrats in the state of Ohio are obsessed because, guess what? Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and calls Amy Acton a liar."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Court records and 1978 reports confirm Amy Acton's stepfather was arrested and charged with raping her at age 12; he fled Ohio before trial and was declared a fugitive. Her brother has corroborated the events. Vivek and Vance are siding with abusers over a victim.

this disproportionate concern for rapists' rehabilitation when 99% of them don't even make it to jail and victims are silenced and abused by the system doesn't make any sense. rapists are the ones in power objectively, and everyone wants to die on this hill for some reason

A world where rapists face no consequences for their action and are not regarded as political enemies is a planet-sized open air prison. Survivors and gender marginalized people more broadly are violently put in line by the prison guards/cops who act with impunity: the rapists.

Lots of men have intense class solidarity with rapists because they understand, correctly, that men rape women on behalf of all other men, as a way of preserving and enacting male status.
