Contributing editor for Wired magazine, LA Time columnist and MSNBC contributor Virginia Heffernan doesn’t think get called a gang rapist is that big a deal:
It truly doesn’t hurt all that much to be accused of gang rape…if you’ve never gang-raped.
Guessing Kagan, RBG, Sotomayor would agree. https://t.co/zHvl9sR7D1

Holy s*** is that a big take. Brit Hume is 100% right here==>
One of the dumbest tweets ever. https://t.co/FubhYb7o6d

Libs are losing it:
Being accused of gang rape is only something you’re upset by if you’re guilty apparently https://t.co/SwcDa5mII9

Good luck in November:
This is a winning talking point and the left should run with it. https://t.co/AHflTLIajY

We’ll also note that false accusations of rape happen all the time:
"No one's ever been falsely convicted of rape." https://t.co/O2eZx14OSf https://t.co/qt8Qpy1Gsl

And this is where the “believe all women” narrative falls flat:
"Believe all women, but no big deal if a man is falsely accused." This is where we are.

And what might be worse than Heffernan’s tweet above is this one where she says Kavanaugh is guilty because he’s so mad:
Recommended
How would I feel if I were accused of Kavanaugh-scale misconduct?
I’m glad you asked, @LindseyGrahamSC
If it weren’t true, I’d be very upset.
But if it WERE true, I’d be apoplectic, hopping mad, insolent and red-faced — like you and Kavanaugh are. https://t.co/k4Ja8FYNg6
