Which is why we can’t and simply don’t have the luxury to pull out the Clinton defense of ‘I don’t care who is getting consensual blowjobs.’ Yeah sure, except if we make the power imbalance no big deal, how much harder do we make it for a journalist to report harassment/abuse?

Referring to the fall of Al Franken as a "lynching" is quite a tell, almost as much a tell as referring to him as a progressive warrior. Also, "weaponize a joke photo" lol, lmao. At least 8 women came forward to accuse Franken of harassment.
Sorry, no….its not. Many of us will never forgive her for lynching Al Franken. That was a contrived right-wing hit job pushed by a disingenuous partisan hack former model who decided to weaponize a joke photo from decades ago. We lost a progressive warrior because of Dem self flagellation.

People with #MECFS, and many with #LongCOVID experience post-exertional malaise: a flare of symptoms after activity. The response is disproportionate to the activity and can lead to permanent drops in functional capacity.
