Must be nice to have a Y chromosome.

My outrage is not performative.

I think it’s all there: child rape, trafficking, money laundering

I can only pay so much mind to the tragedies of the world each time they occur. Our spirits can only stomach so much misery before they begin to unravel.

Ben, those two sentences, I believe, are universal. In other words, many people feel like this. I know I do. It does do something to the spirit when one spends too much time wallowing in the muck. Yes, we sympathize with the tragedies, but it’s the follow-up and the spin that saps us.

We know that prominent people engaged in sex with underage girls and that the political positions were not the commonality. What I want to see revealed is any evidence that people were and are being blackmailed. I doubt we’ll ever see any files at all. Another great post, Ben.
