Stirring the Pot in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020

Here’s some humor!

I may have started a bees nest of bullshit.

I follow a page dedicated to being against Toxic Masculinity. Considering I was on College Boards about that subject before the term even EXISTED… yeah, I’m a supporter. The idea that men should NEVER express emotion, should NEVER admit to having needs, and should ONLY express their “masculine appropriate emotions” is absolute HORSE SHIT! And I’ve been fighting against that since I was 19.

HOWEVER… this group has also become EXCESSIVELY anti-cop. Like… to the point where, they were posting a news article about a Police Officer’s resignation due to personal stress and MOCKING HIM FOR IT. That? I’m not okay with. AT ALL.

So I outed myself.

I stated directly, “Could the Admin of this page please P.M. me. I am a Special Victims Prosecutor and, while I admit my officers are not perfect, I would like to start a conversation. Because I followed this page for a reason. I am VERY against toxic masculinity. But part of that is my stalwart opposition to rape. AND without my officers, I can do nothing about rape. So if we are going to thread the needle between being Anti-Rape and Anti-Cop, I would very much like to have that conversation.”

We’ll see what happens, I guess.
