I'm not entirely sure this is actually new.

This has been happening since Grover Cleveland

Like with Jullian Assange?

Finally happening?

Do you honestly believe that Ford did not profit from the Kavanaugh accusation?

This has always happened. It was a common occurrence a hundred years ago under "heart balm" laws.

In fact, it was only one in a long line of scandalous, seedy, and over-reported cases in which unscrupulous women tried to blackmail wealthy men out of large sums of money, helped along by a weird little piece of legislation that allowed people to sue their exes after a broken engagement. These ladies were “gold-diggers,” “schemers” and “adventuresses,” and what they were doing, the papers crowed, was nothing short of a racket.

The legislation in question was something called the “breach of promise” or “heart balm” suit, and it was based on the premise that an engagement was a binding contract between two people. If one person were to break off the contract without consulting the other, the law could step in and award damages to the brokenhearted party.

Do you think all 49 women accusing Cosby were out for justice? I've got news for you. Statistically, if Cosby raped that many women even considering birth control then there should be 1.5 children running around.

TLDR: It's always been about money.

This was already happening back in 470 BC. Women were accusing men of sexual assault in exchange for spices, cumen and lilac.

What happened to #ListenAndBelieve?

Why would a woman EVER lie about rape?

I'm sure Bob Mueller's laughter was etched indelibly in his victim's hippocampus.

They were already getting paid, just in roundabout ways like book deals, speaking engagements and so on.

If they keep "crying wolf" then eventually nobody will believe their accusations, whether they're real or not.

#MeToo is already falling apart because of Asia Argento's hypocrisy and other false accusations coming to light.
