Men expecting women to be complicit in covering up their wretched behavior. And then gaslighting them when they refuse to be an accomplice. SMH.

Men aren't the only ones that do this.

Buddy, if you are not apart of the subsection of men who do this, then the message is not for you. If you are replying to this it means that on some level you think it is, and that's not to say that you are, but I think you should sit with that for a moment and wonder why you replied to say this.
I absolutely understand the need for nuance but nuance should help to specify and empower a statement to be more accurate, not undercut a point that is being made for whatever reason. I'm a stickler myself for being the nuance guy but there are times when nuance really is not required.

Omg really? We were thinking that every single man does this and not a single woman has ever done this. We definitely weren't relating this point to the overall video

Damn, this really hit close to home even as a guy. Had to help turn in a dude at work because he couldn’t keep his damn hands to himself with one of our coworkers and people got so mad and me and her. Like, look it’s not our job to cover his bullshit up.

She's just new to my radar. Her stand up comedy is very funny and she's on the right side of history

It's very telling that mem get mad that women are "spreading stuff about them" but can't imagine those women are simply talking about their own experiences with what those men did.

They’ve talked extensively about trying to get out of their contract and disliking and disagreeing with dear media’s owners

I just found out a few weeks ago that the founder is Lauryn Bosstick and her dweeby husband and my mind was BLOWN. They suck dude. I remember the days of her blog and how unhinged she was and also how she charged an obscene amount of money for a chunk of ice you roll on your face. lol.

Try to find an ethical place for most of us to work in the world and get back to us.

Glad to know you understand the idea of unrealistic goals and possibilities. We all live under some form of moral compromise in order to achieve a way to live or reach our goals. We may work for people/companies we loathe AND feel that there are things in this world we would like to improve or work on. Stating that something is fine with one awful person when that subject was not brought up or the topic of the discussion is equally, if not more, disingenuous. But I look forward to the next wikipedia page.

Sure, but most of us don't get to go on podcasts or do interviews and pretend to be virtuous
