  • Precisely. Imagine someone doing something to you that you do not want, something that takes away your sense of autonomy, something that humiliates you. You know if you say something, some people will accuse YOU of doing something wrong, instead of your attacker. Now imagine that person has tons of money, and through that money tons of power. You know if you say anything about being attacked, it could hurt that person, and that person will use their money and power to make your life harder. You also know that even if everything goes best case scenario, it will be terribly hard, humiliating, and your personal life (and maybe some of your own behavior) will be out there for everyone to see. Then, think of all the ways it could be a worse outcome. I don’t fault anyone for not coming forward. If I were a target for this behavior, I’d like to think that I would fight, but who knows what I would actually do. I hope I never have to find out.
















  • Project chickens onto Trump tower. It’ll hit the news, he’ll see it, and it’ll push him into another debate. His people can’t control him. The might be able to manipulate him to some extent (e.g., “you don’t need to debate again, you won. What else is there to say/do? All you could do is lose. Leave it on the W.”). So, if you goad him enough, hell agree to another one.
