At least one feminist is going to titanic lengths to keep Rolling Stone’s UVA gang rape story alive even after the magazine itself is trying to disown it.
Titanic survivors had such different stories that it's still unknown exactly how it sank. Doesn't mean it didn't happen. #IStandWithJackie

Sigh. Thinking is hard.

@PlayDangerously wow. The mental gymnastics and double think is palpable.

@PlayDangerously @pambesteder At least with the Titanic, there were many different witness who gave accounts…NOT SO with 1 fake Jackie

@PlayDangerously … we actually have a pretty good idea how it sank. It hit a fucking iceberg. We even have a good idea why it happened.

I'm sorry, did any of those accounts suggest the boat didn't sink?
No?

@PlayDangerously @Final5Software it hit an iceberg, they sent subs and shot photos of the holes. God some people are idiots

As if using a sinking ship as an example in this case wasn’t ironic enough, here’s a touch more…
Used to think #tcots just have different beliefs, but then saw @michellemalkin's tweet on #ebola. Nope they make shit up & pretend it's true

Talk about double-think.
