That story is absolutely heart-breaking. It’s funny to me that reading that story, I can just tell I wouldn’t like Jasmine Mooney. We wouldn’t get along on a personal level. Her humour isn’t my kind. Her view of things doesn’t line up with how I perceive the world. We wouldn’t be friends. And yet, I’m so incredibly moved by her story and I really respect the humility she shows in highlighting the stories of the other women she met in that system. I’m going to share this around, this feels really important.
I have never known a man who needed to get punched in the face worse than Donald Trump. I am not a violent man. I detest “online tough guys” who treat every situation as an excuse to advocate for violence. And I’m not saying I endorse a bullet or a guillotine or something like that. I’m not even saying I’d punch him.
But this man has clearly never been punched in his shit-talking mouth, and if someone had done it 40 or 50 years ago, we wouldn’t be here now.
