      6. RT @karengeier it's really not for me- she benefitted from being quiet and playing by male rules, and put that expectation on others

      7. RT @karengeier what is a bigger betrayal for women? Betrayal by someone who has no knowledge, or someone who does?

      8. I won't retweet everything from @karengeier, suffice to say she makes many strong objections to exculpating Copps.

      9. Would encourage everyone to read everything @karengeier says on this matter.

      10. Still, stepping back, I want to try and understand the context for Copps's words and actions.

      11. Sheila Copps is 62 and has spent a lifetime in politics eating shit from men. Learning to "laugh things off" and "move on"

      12. She's internalized a lot of bad values. But do we blame her or the men who created the system that taught her those values?

      13. And do we assume Copps is static. I don't think it's good politics to refuse to give people a chance to change & evolve.

      14. The anger at Copps for her defense of Ghomeshi is justified but we have to engage with her in a way that lets her learn from this.

      @HeerJeet Feminists - Copps, Rebick, May - init. confused Ghomeshi with state-in-bedroom civil-lib issue. Copps was Trudeau protege.

      @jemma111 That's a good point. Ghomeshi confused issue by quoting Trudeau in his lawsuit.

          @HeerJeet Removing the state from sexuality and choice was a feminist issue. I think that's why so many progressives at first defended him.
