You did good. Normally I'd be whinging about "chaos agents" but the story needs to get out to as much people as possible.

Spread it around to anyone with reach.

Why do people say “the media” is pushing this story?

The big news outlets are pretty late to covering it and even then, it clearly isn’t taking center stage with everything else going on. And they don’t seem to be explicitly pro-Reade, more like “This is a thing that is controversial and it may or may not be true”

If you mean SOCIAL media, that’s a different story, but that doesn’t seem to be what we’re talking about here.

I’m not trying to bring down Biden (I’m voting for him) and I certainly don’t like the MSM, but there seems to be this idea that the media suddenly wants to destroy Biden with lies.

EDIT: Leaving out Fox News, since they always want to attack the Dems. I’m talking more about the “moderate” or left-leaning outlets.

Because the NYT, WaPo, CNN, MSNBC, etc. keep running segments where they talk about the "allegations against Biden" and then instead of digging into whether they're true, they just repeat her allegation uncritically and verbatim, then ask "what does it all mean?"

They're perfectly capable of digging into the story itself and finding out that it's BS.  Instead they choose to treat it as not-BS and keep running these thinkpieces about the consequences of a non-story.

Same thing they did with Clinton's e-mails.

Glad to see people are starting to wake up to the fake news in our country. Profits, sensationalism, and entertainment over journalism.

If you want this to go viral, you need to reply to every Biden, NYT, WP, AP, NPR, CNN, etc., tweet as soon as they Tweet it so that it gets some views. The algorithm will push it down but just giving people the chance to see it and start sharing it. Eventually the algorithm will stop pushing it down if enough people pass it on.

Unfortunately it looks like Twitter is hiding the tweets from the new account I made to promote it.  Maybe I got marked as a spammer or something.  I don't want to send it out from my real account for obvious reasons.

FWIW, deboosting seems to trigger if you reply to too many accounts at once. Try making original tweets gassing up Biden or something or moving part of your campaign to DMs.

Blue check alert



Otter from Animal House apparently gave your article a signal boost too. Wild stuff, really.

5) A LOT of this type of sexually aggressive behaviour pre-MeToo, stems from either a misguided idea of what women want or simply from miscommunication. Men are pretty bad at reading women's signals in general and given that the cultural norm is that the man should be the initiator of sexual contact, that will lead to things that shouldn't have taken place. Some men will be succesful being highly sexually aggressive while others will be regarded as dangerous creeps for the very same behaviours. This is confusing to young men in particular.

This is a slightly more nuanced view than what you said earlier about women straight up rewarding men for aggressive sexual behavior, but it doesn't change the fact that "success" and "sexual aggression" do not belong in the same sentence. Regarding misunderstanding or confusion, this might mitigate our judgement of, or even excuse (provided there is remorse and personal growth) some inappropriate behavior from young men, but certainly not from someone of middle to advanced age in a position of power.
Please note that “sexually aggressive” does not mean the same as physically aggressive. And the point about women often rewarding sexually aggressive behaviour is absolutely true. I don’t like that fact anymore than you do. I most certainly wish that women rewarded nice polite behaviour by men, but particularly when it comes to younger women, that just is not true. Generally speaking of course. There are plenty of women out there who do want nice men, so that’s not what I am saying in the very likely case that someone misconstrues this because they insist on a very black or white view of the world.

An incel on a predominantly white, male, and straight forum? I'm literally astonished.
LOL, I am not an incel and I find the general views of the "incel community" both appalling and untrue. The "black pill" philosophy is complete and utter nonsense.

I must admit that while I do expect pushback from certain corners for stating these things, I'm still baffled how intelligent people can have such a black/white view of these things.

It is infact possible to be a feminist while also acknowledging that women and young women in particular tend to be attracted to classical masculine behaviour - what some might describe as alpha male behaviour. And that such behaviour include what I here describe as sexual aggressiveness, which again does not equal being physically aggressive. It really shouldn't be a hugely controversial claim.
