Seeing a bunch of shitlibs bend over backwards to defend Eric Swalwell for his sexual assault cases is really not helping Democrats beat the “other side of the same coin” allegations nglJust the typical victim-blaming stuff that goes on in issues of workplace sexual misconduct, like saying that “so she consented to the sexual act and now she’s calling it misconduct?” ignoring things like workplace power dynamics, intoxication, etc. the same exact way conservative rape apologists do
Or when one of the victims is a staffer who worked for him, everyone knows that as someone’s boss, you cannot suddenly sexually proposition them and call it consensual, because of the power dynamics of the implication of “well if I say no to my boss about sex, he’s gonna find a reason to fire me”
