New strategy against #metoo works!


Simply wait out the two week news cycle. Semi- apologize for making women feel uncomfortable, but admit no wrongdoing.

Lesson has been filed for other powerful men who will have to deal with sexual harassment claims.

Poor former Senator Al Franken should have stuck it out.

Al Franken, psychopath..

Andrew Cuomo, Mass Murderer.

being a powerful liberal in NY helped as well, prob has dirt on a lot of people.

reply

But will it work this time?

reply

The new news looks dark. The President said he should resign.

I am of the opinion that it started as a political hit job. The timing of the allegations, just when Cumo was weak politically is very suspect. This hit job in the long run, hurts the legitimacy of the #metoo movement.

reply

Yeah well that didn’t work.

reply

Looks dark.

So what IS the strategy against political sexual harassment hitjobs?

I mean any straight man could be targeted, even by foreign governments.

reply

Don’t see this as a hit job. Highly believeable that a smug, old school guy like Cuomo would be “handsy” with women.

But sure, this can be a method for targeting men or women (recently there was that congresswoman in California who had to resign). Also not limited to straight men. Wasn’t Kevin Spacey’s career tanked by his harassment of men?

There used to be very formal manners and protocol in the workplace between colleagues. While that did not prevent harassment altogether, bringing some of that back in modern times might help guide those who are too thick to use common sense. Modern workplaces are too chummy and this breeds conflict.

reply

Good reply. The hit job is just my opinion.

A watershed moment will be when a real political hit job happens and some intrepid reporter uncovers it by obtaining texts or promises of a payoff etc.

When this occurs (it will occur eventually) it will set back the #metoo movement, possibly killing it.

reply

That did happen. Remember Gary Hart? https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/11/was-gary-hart-set-up/570802/

Doubt one case will kill #metoo and it really shouldn’t be killed. No one should be degraded, pestered, bullied by unwanted sexual advances at their job or anywhere for that matter. Like all sloganized movements, #metoo needs to dig deeper than knee jerk reactions to celebrity cases which can blow up and turn on a dime with a couple of expensive lawyers at the helm.

its still working...even though another democrat told him to resign, the dude is untouchable just like the Clintons.
