Delicious satire.

"The jury saw through Finch's patriarchal rationalizations and found Robinson guilty beyond a reasonable doubt."

And we see through their racist rationalization. This is the face of feminism.

I see the moral dilemma here. If you believe the rape victim you are a racist. If you believe the accused you are a sexist.

This is a joke right?

I see a market for Feminist "Cliffina's Notes". The author has "To Kill a Mockingbird" down, I guess "1984" is next -- should be easy to make the point that men do need constant surveillance. ;-)

Hey you, lawyer, you can't ask any questions, case closed. Dat democracy

I hate how close to reality this is.

I don't get it, has she not read the book? Atticus Finch was the defense attorney of course he's going to ask tough questions of the person claiming his client raped her. How is he a rape apologist for defending an innocent man?

I was listening to Dan Savage's podcast "Savage love" #425 yesterday. Only due to the fact that he hadn't gotten around to mentioning the U-VA "rape" story prevented him from having to do any back pedaling, as it's clear he would have immediately jumped on to the "rape culture" band wagon.

The best part though was when he stated that false accusations of rape were "vanishingly small...only between 2 and 10% of all rape accusations".

This is how deeply the anti-male "real rape culture" goes...10% of all rape accusations being utterly fraudulent is considered insignificant and vanishingly small, illustrating that we should never discount a rape accusation because false ones are nonexistent...only 10%.

Poe's Law in action.
