Is it really that hard to refrain from SAing someone? Or at bare minimum, not running for office if you have? The audacity of these candidates is mind-blowing.
It’s really really infuriating that it seems to be an almost universal law that if someone is running for office they are exactly the wrong kind of person and should never be allowed to hold office.

The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.
Charismatic people are good at running for office and good at avoiding responsibility for things throughout their lives. We select for a trait that let’s people get away with stuff.

I think the disturbing reality is just that rape and SA is much more common than people think it is

It’s a perfect example of the type of rape culture we have in the US.

Yes.
Is it easy to accuse someone? Yes. Does that mean the person did it? No. Does it mean they didn’t? No.
Here I thought not SAing was easy. Huh?
