I can’t believe a woman gubernatorial candidate who was raped as a child by her stepfather and whose mother lost custody of her minor children as a result has to respond to an attack ad calling her a liar. It is, as far as the literature I know an actual unprecedented low in modern politics.

They tested all this recently by telling you that trans people aren’t real, but before this they told you Black women were unrapable, and that the land they colonized was empty. I promise this is all part of the same story of erasure and domination.

It seems for at least some segment of the global right part of the project of imagining their own grievance has gone beyond denying that inequality exists and has rapidly become denying that the lives of people who challenge their frameworks already don’t exist. It’s dangerous.

Beyond what we have all been screaming about rape culture and the domination of women and children being a feature and not a bug, I also think everyone should be paying very close attention to how the lives and biographies of people who have faced extreme adversity are increasingly picked apart.
