    It's that "Americans scream" bot again. Its agenda seems to be to sow discontent. I guess Amelia May is busy still, cause she normally nukes it.

    I'm curious what sort of assault AOC is talking about. Sexual assault is a very wide umbrella.

    Sexual assault is any type of sexual activity or contact that you do not consent to. Sexual assault can happen through physical force or threats of force or if the attacker gave the victim drugs or alcohol as part of the assault. Sexual assault includes rape and sexual coercion.

    Every woman has a story pretty much, it's sad but I don't know if grouping rape and getting groped is such a good idea. Or calling drunk/drug sex "assault."

    Yes, though I think her main point is that the language used by her Republican colleagues to excuse the Capitol attackers sound a lot like the excuses made by abusers of women. Her main point is that there should be consequences for attacks on the Capitol and those who incited that specific violence on the Capitol building. Historically there have been consequences for attacks on the US, and those who actively put her and others in real danger should pay for their treason.

    But I bookmarked it right now because those are real science news sites
