Over at @ArcDigi, my colleague @BenBurgis (mostly) disagrees with me on #JoeBiden and #TaraReade. FYI. (I'll offer more thoughts later!)https://arcdigital.media/tara-reades-allegation-against-joe-biden-is-plausible-c989c1951b90?source=friends_link&sk=305598b8b354784990689b8eb3ea5ba8 …
You're claiming the prior on a politician in his 50s initiating sexual contact with a staffer in the office was unlikely in the 90s? Given how the accusations against Clinton were treated a few years later, I'm less idealistic here.

"initiating sexual contact" doesn't really capture the seriousness of the allegation I think.

I think it captures how it may have looked to someone who walked in on them, and gave Biden the benefit of the doubt. Rape doesn't look like rape if the victim is being quiet and you're friends with the rapist.
