You are only black if you are a Democrat. You are only a female if you are a Democrat. You are only gay if you are a Democrat. We believe her (if she is a Democrat) Your allegations only matter if it’s against Republicans.
I expect everyone to be accurate, and “your allegations only matter if it’s against Republicans” is inaccurate. To show that it’s inaccurate, I cited an example in which allegations against a non-Republican mattered.

Accurate if stating defensible *rules*. Anyway, stick a “normally” operator in front of the rules to make its structure clear to you. And that seems true. Do you seriously expect us to ignore the rule with your “Butt Franken!” argument?

I expect people to include recent cases when discussing supposed "rules," yes. If the most notable recent case defies the rule, maybe it isn't a rule after all.

Interesting, I don’t.

How many times can the opposite of a "rule" happen before it's no longer a rule?

I don’t think there’s some number which applies to all cases. Why don’t you look at cases where we only have *say-sos* (as in Ford’s v weak case) and tell me how many we have on both sides. Not very good evidence when your counter is one we have pictures, and multiple accusers

The most prominent Republican faces many accusations of sexual assault, hasn’t hurt him. A prominent Democrat got accused of far less, ousted from Senate. “Your allegations only matter if it’s against Republicans” does not match reality.

Again, the entire force of your reply is to take that phrase woodenly literal, hence why you think one example disproves it. But I’d say you and I live in different epistemic universes if you think none of that has hurt trump.

Yes, the point I made was the point I was trying to make. If you’re interested in arguing against a point I didn’t make, I can’t help you.
