People who continue to remain ignorant and not look up the facts of the case, yet continue to flagrantly say “it didn’t happen” are rape apologists. If you continue to support a person who has been convicted of rape, yet you stay ignorant to the details while still claiming “it didn’t happen”. You are a rape apologist. First and foremost the victim and their condition should be first to come to mind. Not the plausible innocence of the rapeist no matter how close you were to them ir how ‘great’ they are. What this is doing is invalidating the trauma of the victim. You can still be ignorant and a rape apologist. Most if not all of my maga interactions have been this way. (Anecdotal I know)

At the end of the day yes their are many things that make maga evil and Abhorrent. The quick outright dismissal of this case from them is one of the many. I’m not trying to throw titles I think are illegitimate.

Do I think all of maga believes it didn’t happen? No. That would be ludicrous. A large portion probably have no idea who E Jean Caroll is. Do I think the majority of maga if presented with the case and asked if they believed it happened would say ‘no’? Yes.

That is exactly how his base has been primed to react.

Yeah me and my fiance have been trying to just hsve more 2 on 1 convos with her parents. They seem a lot more reasonable that way. I wish I knew how to make friends online. I feel awkward when trying lol. Idk how to get over it 😅

It’s disappointing that you are probably right… I just wish we could get through to them.

It’s actually sir 😅 me and my fiance are living in the same state as my in laws many hours away. We live on our own with the exception of a roomate. We were visiting for the holidays and it was just a really gross ridiculous display to me. Me and my fiance both hate this state and are trying to figure out how to get the hell out of here as quickly as feasibly possible.

Trust me we are tryting to get out asap. It’s hard with our situation currently.

At the end of the day is it still not rape apology? Just because you think it didn’t happen doesn’t mean it didn’t actually happen. They may not individually think they are rape apologists but they still are.

It’s the same with abortion, they don’t all individually think it’s trying to control women, but it absolutely is.

I mean I guess at the end of the day it doesn’t matter what is true because maga just decides what they want to be true or false. So even if you call them what they are it bounces off of them. It’s endless goalpost moving.

sigh

I’ve tried. My fiancé’s mother jumped through a lot of hoops to say the E Jean Carol court case was inaccurate. She said she didn’t like trump or kamala, but you could tell which way she leaned. I made the final comment “why are you jumping through all these hoops to defend a disgusting man you don’t even care about”

She seemed taken aback and embarrassed “I’m not! I don’t care about either of them”

sure.

Nah my fiance is just like me when it comes to politics, situations like these, etc. She is The perfect partner. She is also navigate this situation with her parents because she loves them but hates their beliefs.

I appreciate your advice, I will be dilligent in this comment section. I think for the most part I am just looking for conversation with people who actually try and critically think. Due to being surrounded by people who seem to just shut off their brain. I feel like I am losing my sanity.

Thank you for your comment kind stranger.

we are really trying to… I think it would help a lot too.
