Kellyanne Conway reveals she is a victim of sexual assault; blames victims immediately after
- Thread starter ZeoVGM
- Start date
For someone who's made it her job to lie for this President and invent alternative facts I absolutely question her credibility.
Sure, but what's the other option?
Just trust everyone blindly?
People are bad.
She may have been and that's not acceptable but as soon as she uses it to defend known trash that has sexually assaulted others. It doesn't downplay her assault but it's pretty indefensible what she's doing.
this isn't A gross thread, you can believe her and still think she's trash. I'm sure she's honest about it but who she's defending makes her garbage to.
Believing her claim that she has been sexually assaulted during the course of her life hurts no one. It shouldnt even seem improbable.
Dear Kellyanne Conway,
I'm a guy who was orally raped by a couple people in front of a couple other guys.
No, I wasn't drunk or anything like that. "Tricked" is probably the best way to put it. As such, I have just one thing to say:
Go to hell, jackass.
Sincerely,
Charizard

The tweet is real, but the context is fake.

This is where I'm at.
As unfortunate as it is, sexual assault is insanely common. When the #metoo campaign started, a friend told me about all of the instances of sexual assault she had to deal with. I'd wager that even if they don't know it, everyone has at least one friend or family member that has also suffered.
What I can't condone is Conway saying that it's a woman's responsibility to avoid sexual assault. Where's the blame for all of the men who make it so that women don't feel safe out in public, walking down the street, or even in their own goddamn homes?!
I heard it happened right around the time of the Bowling Green massacre.
Hard to believe someone that has lied so much and so frequently and will continue to do so. That said, I'm willing to listen to her story, see what sort of exculpatory evidence exists and have my mind changed.
But this is a perfect example of why it is important to be truthful.

it took 42 replies to get to one person who could accurately parse what she was saying

Im so confused about what her argument is. You're responsible for your own conduct... but apparently only if you're the victim? Going after flake, who's a member of congress to change his vote, isn't a valid thing to do cuz you should go after the perpetrator not petition government.... but she just said essentially to leave the perpetrators alone that its your own fault?
I'm sorry for her that she's also experienced this, but this really doesnt make any sense.

it's also over a year old and out of context to whatever point she was trying to make then.

Yes, which is why I'm confused as to why you'd even suggest that believing her is a problem.
It's fuck you got mine to the max degree. I may have been assaulted but I'll defend this rapist because I'm getting paid.
This seemed to be a tactic by the MAGA crowd leading up to the hearing on Thursday. I was arguing with people on facebook about how Dr. Ford may not be lying and they would argue that she is. After so long they would say they were also a survivor and that they known how Ford should have acted and since she didn't act that way she was a fraud. It's really hard to argue with them once they drop that because you can't call their claim into account, so I would just say I'm sorry for what happened to you, but that doesn't make you the authority on all survivors.
I think it is a far different situation since Kellyanne is a habitual liar and she is the mouth piece of one of the biggest liars to walk the earth. With so little credibility going in you question her motives before you trust what she is saying. Sadly, It is something she has brought upon herself. But I'll give her the benefit of the doubt.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if she was, most likely by a family member who forced the "it's your fault" bullshit on her and did so for years. Not to mention she is also highly religious and that also likely played a part in her looking down on herself and other women. She likely had been told that for so long that she eventually came to hate herself and every woman who also was a victim, which is how she turned into the perfect person for the GOP to push their woman hating agenda.
I know CNN isn't above doing the both sides thing but She probably told them she wanted to come on to talk about her experience with sexual assault. What are they going to do? Deny her a chance to speak out?
If people here don't believe Conway, they have a lot of reason not to. Statistically speaking, she probably was. I just don't see what the point is of getting mad at people for not believing Conway.
If it's true then I genuinely feel sorry for her. Nobody deserves to have that happen to them. With that being said that doesn't excuse the fact that she is a shit person with shit beliefs and actions nor does it absolve her of any criticism of those beliefs or actions.
Yes, she adds nothing to the conversation, just lies, thats his job, why give her the opportunity to say more garbage?
That is exactly what she did, she only talked about her experience so she could blame the victims.
People are skeptical not due to her political affiliation but because she is a habitual liar.
If I assume she's telling the truth - and while I normally always believe women in such cases with a habitual political liar like her my assumption ain't as strong as normal - then it's shocking and horrific that she would actually blame women for being victims and state the men should get away with it. That's beyond fucked up and it's very alarming it aligns to GOP party stance. If she's actually willing to use her own victimhood and bend it to toe party line I have no words for how low an act that is.
That said if she actually is lying: that's even lower.
I'm presuming the former, and I'm sorry she was abused: but what she's doing with the fact of her abuse and how she's channelling it's reveal is horrific and morally reprehensible.
In short I just don't get her or people like her at all.
My moral compass just can't compute why you'd do what she's just done.

Look I hate and despise Ann Coulter with every fibre of my being but this is out of context, this tweet is sarcastic. Source: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/ann-coulter-men-no-choice/
Her point in making the tweet is in response to immigration, so it's still shitty and xenophobic and horrible, but let's not derail the thread over this unrelated and completely out of context tweet.
I said this before but now I understand why she even had that initial reaction.
I'm not surprised she sold herself out. She already sold out her kids when she was confronted by Bill Maher on how she could get her kids to understand her support for Trump and what Trump's actions mean for them.
