Once upon a time, people were people. Sometimes they were funny. Sometimes they were crude. Sometimes they were annoying, and you just tried to avoid them. People are people. Deal with it.
But today, some people are Progressives, and everyone else is a criminal who should shut up and lose their job.
Yep, political correctness gone way way overboard. I know there are sincere abuse cases and those should be addressed. If she told him to knock it off, he probably would have. But perverts like Weistein and Franken needed to be taken down.
Very true. I remember a call from a young lady to Dr. Laura’s show where she described some fellow college student trying to touch her and feel her leg. She was asking whether she should report it as sexual harassment.
Dr. Laura reminded her that what was happening wasn’t “sexual harassment” as described by the left but crude, boorish behavior. She lamented the fact that it wasn’t that long ago that women knew how to deal with boorish behavior and that the guy might get the point if they were slapped and berated publicly for their indecent behavior.
As you put it, some people are crude, funny, or annoying. They may be tolerable and then cross some line where their behavior is no longer acceptable. You deal with it, or at least people knew how to deal with it without involving kangaroo courts in colleges and lawyers.
It’s the M O N E Y!
