    Weird how you think that you have to experienced something to talk about it. Do people have to experience rape to be allowed to talk about it in your opinion? Do people have to experience a war to be allowed to talk about it? Do people have to experience depression to talk about it?

      Yes

      I think anyone who has experienced those things has more standing to talk about them, and they should discount the opinions of those who haven’t, especially when those opinions are completely opposed to everything they learned from the experience. On top of that, they immediately have more standing than both the rapist and the oligarch sending them to war, before they even open their mouths

        Talk about strawmen.

        OK, so the rape victim tells you that some people deserved their rapes. Do you stand by your point? Or is knowledge and logic maybe just a slight bit more important by chance?

          Yeah that was you. That was you making strawmen. I was doing you. I put on glasses and big teeth and chalk and was standing like a fool.
