View original postBut I certainly agree that there's too much rage and outrage in public debate and in politics these days, on all sides.

I'm sniffing about so many columnists vomiting the adjective 'outraged' whenever describing some prominent 'resistance' member.
I mean, chill the fuck out your not really a resistance, yes I get it you dont like Trump.

An old friend of mine has becone a real sjw type. Almost a parody of it. He is some researcher and teaching assistant at UC Davis and his wife is the same. Anyhoo, the wife was lamenting the suicide of her friend, a queer latina woman. Also from UC Davis, And she says "I will miss your humor and rage".
Together with the media bombardment its stuck in my head. Just seems like a strange way to think about someone. I dont kbow maybe Im talking out of my ass.

View original postAlso, is #metoo really a powerful movement outside the press and hollywood ?


View original postThat maybe depends a bit on how you define 'movement' - all these women who have been influenced by it to share, or at least to reconsider internally, their experiences with sexual abuse or harrassment, they're not an organized movement with shared goals and purposes. So I'm also not sure if it makes sense to talk about 'powerful' - or to which extent it can be something to build a political campaign on, which I suppose is what you mean. But the metoo campaign has certainly had a major impact and affected a huge number of people.
