270. It was "censored" for accusing a DUer of condoning rape.

Dec 2015

This essay has been discussed to death here, no one had their posts hidden for posting facts, but when you smear Senator Sanders by claiming he thinks women enjoy being raped or accuse another member of condoning it that deserves more than a hide, imo.

And the post you're claiming was unfairly hidden wasn't even about Bernie, it was about ANOTHER member.

The jury got it right.

Women don't "enjoy" fantasizing about rape. Bernie's essay suggests they do. That is OFFENSIVE. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #121

Oh please, who do you think started this crap about him advocating rape? beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #289

You can rest assured that the RW and GOP know. NurseJackie Dec 2015 #291

Yes they do. Youngcons got to it first I believe. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #293

No they aren't MaggieD Dec 2015 #290

Link to a post calling her a "murderer" that wasn't hidden? beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #292

Bullshit. DUers WILL get a hide for posting or describing that essay. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #119

That post was not about the article. morningfog Dec 2015 #122

Yes it was about Bernie's 1972 essay. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #137

Yep MaggieD Dec 2015 #143

It got hidden 7-0 for claiming Bernie "thinks women enjoy being raped". beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #127

No. I'm talking about post 29. Keep up if you are going to butt in. nt SunSeeker Dec 2015 #131

You mean the one where that poster accused another member of condoning rape? beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #139

No, the poster was noting the hypocrisy of condoning Bernie's 1972 essay. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #147

Nope, they were accusing someone of condoning rape: "Rapey is a-okey?" beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #149

The jury would agree the moon is made of green cheese MaggieD Dec 2015 #159

Sure, it's all a HUGH CONSPIRASEE!!1! beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #164

Bernie was in his 30s when he wrote that essay. nt SunSeeker Dec 2015 #180

It was about gender stereotypes, not rape. How can you not understand that? beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #184

That may have been his intent, but his examples and wording were offensive. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #185

So even though you know what his intent was, you're still hung up on the rape fantasy? beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #187

I don't know what Bernie's actual intent was, I can only go by the words in his essay. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #190

Just because you don't want to admit it doesn't make it so. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #191

see Nancy Friday's book about women's sexual fantasies, "My Secret Garden".Entire chapter about rape kath Dec 2015 #260

Those are not rape fantasies. These are scenarios the women desire to happen. That is not rape. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #306

So amazing how far people will go to defend Bernie! treestar Dec 2015 #314

"rape and sex are not the same thing?" beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #316

I've been attacked, you don't have the right to accuse me of not knowing the difference. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #351

so you're going to pull a personal card treestar Dec 2015 #352

You claimed I don't know the difference, YOU made it personal. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #355

Yep. nt SunSeeker Dec 2015 #320

Yes, they are. Fantasies can be both, something you want to happen or something you just think about beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #317

Paranoid? 840high Dec 2015 #219

Isn't it funny that only Bernie supporters deny this? MaggieD Dec 2015 #231

No, they were noting how some claim Bernie's "rapey" essay is "a-okey." SunSeeker Dec 2015 #167

Sure, whatever you say, it's all a conspiracy, except when it's not. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #175

All the hides based on being critical of Bernie are bullshit hides MaggieD Dec 2015 #179
