And once again I have to say thank you dear Fedi friends
I briefly vented my frustration about what is going on in the USA and got some great answers
Yes, there are not only superficial and stupid statements here, you learn and exchange ideas here
If only many more would follow this example, things would be a lot better in this world

Mastodonsi_irini (@si_irini@mastodon.social)I've been wondering what's going on in the USA for a few days now.
In short
First Roe v. Wade was overturned and now Weinstein has been overturned
As if we women haven't always been struggling, are we now traveling back to dark times?
In an exaggerated sense, I briefly thought "Are we women becoming fair game again?"
It may sound exaggerated, but with such steps in a certain direction, I don't see a bright future if things continue like this.

Seit ein paar Tagen frage ich mich schon was da in den USA los ist.
Kurz gesagt
Zuerst würde Roe gegen Wade kassiert und nun wurde Weinstein kassiert
Als ob wir Frauen nicht schon immer zu kämpfen haben, reisen wir jetzt in finstere Zeiten zurück?
Im überzogenen Sinne dachte ich kurz "Werden wir Frauen jetzt wieder zum Freiwild?"
Es mag überzogen klingen aber bei solchen Schritten in eine bestimmte Richtung sehe ich keine rosige Zukunft sollte es so weiter laufen.

@edgeoforever 26, right. The Brave New Films video had interviews with 16 of them. I was also thinking about the Catch and Kill podcast. The lengths that #Weinstein went through to stop the story from getting out. Even if you were the "perfect" victim the Weinstein team still got leverage over the victims to discredit them or shut them up.
Noel Castler, who talked about #Trump from his time working on the Apprentice, said #Epstein learned from Trump. Trump learned from Roy Cohen.
