Re: Lewis CK sexual abuse

[(Anonymous)]

To a certain extent, yeah, but I also feel like it's kind of... there's a point where looking for patterns is almost besides the point. I don't think there's really any one quality, or occupation, or behavior that you can use to ferret this out. The reality is, some people seek out opportunities to abuse people, and some people will take advantage of power and hierarchy to do so when it's possible for them. And that is true across the board. It's true of politicians and it's true of film directors and it's true in any other place you care to name. Ultimately, I believe the best answer to the question "why do male allies abuse women" is because that's what a lot of people do. Consistently.

My thought was more that he wasn't so much a male ally abusing women as an abusive person who thought "feminist ally" made a good cover-up personality that would deflect suspicions.

Similar to a politician that puts up a front of being all about family values and morals and so on, while actually being slimy and cheating on his spouse.

My point, I guess, is that the arrows of cause and effect that you're drawing don't necessarily hold.

It's less that they adopt those views as part of a tactic to abuse others, and more that people are just shit no matter what they claim to believe.

Yes, I get it . People are abusive.

And abusive people sometimes pretend to be something they're not to cover up their abusive behavior. Sometimes they pretend to be the complete opposite of what they really are.

That was all I was saying. I don't know why you keep acting like I just don't understand that people are abusive?

The point I'm trying to make is that I don't think they're pretending.
