#MeToo empowers anti-men zealots
Article here. Excerpt:
'Watch out, stay calm, don’t go the way of the French Revolution that replaced tyrants with worse tyrants, chopping off innocent heads by way of self-righteous evil. That’s what some might want to say to the #MeToo movement as it besmirches its truly noble objectives by some telling us that Brett Kavanaugh is guilty until he impossibly proves he isn’t, that women never lie, that masculinity is toxic and that trusting old, white men is swimming with the sharks.
Sexual assault is obviously an abomination that must be fought, and it was impossible not to sympathize with Kavanaugh’s accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, as she testified at a Senate hearing on national TV. She was clearly troubled, emotionally wrought, almost surely a victim of some horror at some time. But her story bounces all over the place and has no corroboration at all. None. Among those she said were at a party where attempted rape occurred was a best friend who gently says, well, no, she was never there, and there is almost unquestionably nothing there in some of the yarns of others who have lined up behind Dr. Ford.'
