she'll lose her job when democrats don't control where she works

either way, she's never going to live this down

unfortunate that democrats didn't keep it anonymous like they should have

that alone, imo, is the single biggest anime betrayal of this whole fiasco

Lol whats sad and stupid about all of this is that even if she is proven to lie regarding the allegation, people will still believe her

This is our OJ Simpson

well of course

Her supporters will most certainly continue to believe her.

Nah, she's going to make it rich.

And she's an academic.

she is rich already

And will likely point to the comments about drinking as a balance.

she just got even more rich

wait till some female "stars" tell you, that it's all half as bad since it still is a "plausible scenario"

:p

Not only does she have tenure, but she'll be lauded in her discipline.

We just saw what kind of standards alot of the grievance types have.

Yeah its pathetic how all you need to do to retire early is make a false allegation on some republican

And they're everywhere in psychology.

She'll be getting awards.

She is set for life

We could find documents *proving* a conspiracy and she'd only get more awards.

I have sympathy for kavanaugh in that he's getting slandered. But I think we all knew deep down this was going to happen to someone at some point. I have more sympathy for Ford because even if she came forward and is mistaken about who assaulted her, she tried to do it without turning it into a circus

I can respect that

You guys don't realize how bad academia really is.

even if I think shes kind of a douche

Public false rape allegations will be as common as school shootings, watch

They already are.

fuck dude. More common

Haven't you heard the 25% statistic?

Thinking you can bring someone down on anonymous allegations ... no sympathy

That's not how it's going to pay out though.

If the Republicans try and tighten the noose without something really hard, it'll just backfire.

Im just glad i have enough self respect to tell this whole thing was BS

The only way to really hurt her would be to go after her institution.

Which would, by necessity, broaden to the entirety of academia.

Frankly, Academia deserves it and it's long overdue

@trapexit That's fine. I'm just pointing out i do. Prior to the circus, the worst that would have happened is there would have been an ideally quiet debate about the credibility of the allegations

if dems weren't awful and fucking insane

But I don't think people have the guts or discipline to really wage that fight.

that's how it is supposed to work
