Only twice, that I can recall, have I lost Instagram followers over a video. The first was when I said Lindsay Clancy was guilty of murdering her three children.
The second was today, when I said, walking already drunk into a frat party, drinking more and voluntarily doing drugs, then saying yes to group sex makes you a willing participant in a very bad situation and assumes many risks you may later regret, and publicly accusing young men of rape two years after you told a very different story is a very serious thing.
In both cases, I had (and have) an avalanche of women up in my comments telling me I don’t understand, I’m disgusting, I haven’t read the facts, I’m betraying the sisterhood, etc.
Look, I’m surely not right about everything. There are things I miss, takes that weren’t entirely thought through, even positions I solidly stand on but that others don’t agree with for understandable reasons. But I will say, the rabid wolf pack response of these women when you disagree with them is…really something to behold.
