I’m reading through tweets now, but rather than solely viewing this through the lens of political “wins”— I want to note that Sanders and others endorsed Biden as their “friend,” when that “friend” already had credible issues of sexual harassment (& now assault) against them.
We can’t say that our society protects predators and then ignore this.

I was legitimately pissed off when Sanders endorsed Biden— even as people yelled “well he said he’d endorse the nominee,” b/c that nominee is a rapist.
People, especially those who consider themselves on the left should’ve taken, imo, more issue with this.

We also have many activists within leftist organisations who too often ignore, or downplay, credible complaints of sexual harassment + assault by their members.
This is something that I will never understand and I won’t say a lot on this subject given mine + others experiences, but y’all dislike women— except for what they can add / “score” for you.

Reade & the others are people. Not political score chips and they deserve real justice.
