Former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman was a progressive superhero.
He said all the right things about all the right causes. He was active in pushing the #MeToo movement. It seems that like so many other men in power, he thought that his woman’s issue virtue signaling bought him enough indulgences that he could be a woman abusing monster in private.
As at least four different women found out, actually living 50 Shades of Gray is a lot less enjoyable than reading it.
“It was at first as if he were testing me. Then it got stronger and harder. It wasn’t consensual. This wasn’t sexual playacting. This was abusive, demeaning, threatening behavior.”
She said that as the violence grew, so did his sexual demands.
“He was obsessed with having a threesome and said it was my job to find a woman,” Selvaratnam said. “He said he’d have nothing to look forward to if I didn’t and would hit me until I agreed.”
She said she had no intention of adding a second woman to their bed.
The abuse increased until Schneiderman was not only slapping her but spitting on her and choking her, she said.
“He was cutting off my ability to breathe,” she said.
Soon, “we could rarely have sex without him beating me.”
In classical Democrat fashion, he knew where his place was over people of color.
“Sometimes, he’d tell me to call him Master, and he’d slap me until I did,” Selvaratnam said.
“He started calling me his ‘brown slave’ and demanding that I repeat that I was ‘his property.’”
Of course, this couldn’t be because Schneiderman was a piece of shit. No. It’s because men.
Marisa Kabas is a director with an app called HOPE that helps short attention span millennials know where to direct their two minute hate at the appropriate times.
She gave men direction on how to behave after this.
it’s cool that you’re “horrified” and “my god!” and “disgusted,” but let us take the lead here.

AMPLIFY women’s thoughts/feelings. i know that might be foreign for some of you, but give it a try. don’t immediately jump to the election implications. just try for just a second to absorb what this is like for schneiderman’s victims and women who believed in him.

Actually, I am horrified and disgusted that a man this abusive could have been in a position of authority for so long without it being found out. Which makes me suspect that everyone of consequence in NY knew, just like they all knew about Weinstein, until Ronan Farrow blew the whole thing wide open.
I don’t believe that there are men secretly saying to each other “Man, did you hear what happened to Eric? Totally non-cool that he got busted. I don’t know how I’m going to keep my sex slaves under wraps if this kind of thing keeps happening.”
The overwhelming opinion among us normals is “he needs to spend the rest of his life in prison and the rest of eternity in hell.”
That’s because “the patriarchy” is not real. The only conspiracy here is among progressives, to keep one of their own in power because it’s more important that he fight Trump’s travel ban that it is that he not choke girlfriends nearly to death while raping them.
the ‘P’ word that made Schneiderman, like Weiner and Weinstein before him, possible is ‘progressive.’
But don’t let that get in the way of a narrative.
In all this hype and man hating its interesting that women forget that THEY have vicious evil abusers among themselves.. I know, been there.
The WSJ has an op-ed today that basically argues this sort of thing is the natural outcome of a one-party state. Makes sense to me — China and Russia have similar things.
Stalin’s KGB Chief Beria was known to have attractive women arrested so he could rape them. Happily, he died on his knees begging for his life before being shot in the head- a fitting end for many tyrants.
I remember reading, years ago, that most of the late 19th- and early 20th century male leftists, including Picasso, Rousseau, Marx, and the whole host of others, were truly reprehensible in their behavior toward women. Simone deBouvier wrote what she did because the men in her social circle were, in fact, skunks. I believe the same applies to mid- and late-20th century leftists, as well–the early feminazis were writing from their experience. The whole Weinstein/Schneiderman/Bill Clinton/despicable leftist behavioral phenomenon has a name: “moral licensing.”
Would be nice if the ladies also named people whom they told their saga to, people who were in a position to do something about it and instead did nothing to help. if there was a HR person somewhere who tried to sweep it under the rug, they should be named. If a party leader knew and tried to coerce them into silence, they should be named. The willing enablers are almost as bad and should be shamed as such.
J.Kb hits the fallacy of #Metoo in the x ring. The pervasive “sexual predator” and “rape culture” behavior only occurs in the Hollywood/coastal elite bubble and is very rare out in the real world of working folks. While I have heard some occasional coarse language no one I know runs a casting couch or forces themselves on an unwilling partner.
You could run a casting couch in the construction and heavy equipment industry. I just don’t think you’d want to.
Coupla reasons, in my opinion. (1) flyover women can shoot, (2) their men can shoot, and (3) flyover folks will not tolerate that bullish-eet.
