I remember Joe Biden being accused of rape and the woman who did it basically being hushed down. I haven’t seen a single person mention it (recently). Given his age, status, and political beliefs, it seems pretty much guaranteed to be at least somewhat true. How did I forget about this?
Intersectionality is important but lib idpol or lib essentialism whatever you want to call it is real.
Libs always use identity as a weapon so they don’t have to talk about things like class conflict, wealth inequality, or how they’re functionally the same as Republicans. They just wave a little pride flag around while they bulldoze low income housing to make way for shopping complexes and “luxury” priced five over ones.
Once they’re done using a talking point for their purposes they discard it.
