    This hashtag -- #LiberalTips2AvoidRape -- proves that the right isn't going to give up rape jokes and rape philosophers anytime soon.

        @CarolinaMarie_V So this justifies making jokes about rape?

        @CarolinaMarie_V Read the "jokes" & comments on the hashtag -- they're pretty sickening. Here's one comment sent to me https://twitter.com/ColoradoScubaFr/status/303732203618189313 …

        @HeerJeet @CarolinaMarie_V That has nothing to do with the right or their stance on gun rights.

        @CarolinaMarie_V It's not just twitter. It's right wing sexists/misogynists who think rape is funny. Read the comments on hashtag.

        @CarolinaMarie_V There are individual left-wing sexists/misogynists but left has a critique of sexism, right doesn't. Crucial difference.

        @CarolinaMarie_V Idea that sexism is bad is premised on egalitarian politics (i.e. left). No accident that feminism emerged from radicalism.

        @CarolinaMarie_V On the left you don't see people arguing women shouldn't have vote,as this National Review chap does http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/340823/19th-amendment-michael-walsh …

        @CarolinaMarie_V Historically all the major pushes for female equality have come from liberals, radicals and socialists.

        @CarolinaMarie_V This is tradition that runs from Mary Wollstonecraft to Seneca Falls to suffragists to 1960s/1970s feminists.

        @CarolinaMarie_V The political right has always resisted these pushes for female equality, although often accepting them later post facto.
