Why is Obama lending his time to an anti-sexual assault PSA, instead of a much larger issue, like say, an anti-violence PSA?
The amount of murder and assault that happens in this country makes the amount of rape and sexual assualt that happens in this country look like utter peanuts. And yet, where is outcry for change in that area?

Oh right, I forgot, primarily men are victims of violent crimes, therefore, whogivesashit.

Surprising amount of backlash among the top voted comments.
Are people finally getting tired of the same old victim complex circlejerking?

[HawkWrites]

The "leaders" (I use that word loosely) tend to latch on to whatever bullshit thing that will further their image with the general public. That's the long and short of it.

They couldn't care less about the actual issue but rather they're more focused on whether or not it looks good and furthers their own agenda.

[BadWolf]

It's on US never to vote for a SJW again. No more goddamn white knights please.

Seems American women are obsessed with getting the crap kicked out of them and then 'saving each other'.

[VincentVinturi]

Not you, Don Draper...not...you!

This video has an obviously threatening tone.

Look at the facial expression and body language towards the end of the video.

It hits a menacing crescendo meant to bully weak guys.

'It's on us' = 'tread lightly, fellas, or else..."

It's the institutionalized psychological castration of men, led by Obama and given authority in this case by useful idiots with a lot of fame.

They're saying don't behave like a man, don't even *think* about expressing your manhood to women, and if you see someone trying it, shame, ridicule, even physically attack and incarcerate him.

The level of idiocy that allows such a video to even exist in this universe is truly mind numbing.

[Haig]

Hey,

Yeah you are right there for once Biden and Obama, your laws incarcerate many men every year for false and low rate crimes who then go on to be sexual assault victims in prison.

Your white-knighting over primary aggression laws put many innocent men at risk of rape because "she said so".

It's not on us Obama, it's on you and your corrupt cartel and your sycophantic cronies who believe the sky is green and women are special little snowflakes that need protecting from the harsh rays of the sun.

We need to stop giving oxygen to these ideas as even the slightest bits of acknowledgement gives them validity.

[Dr. Howard]

Between this and all of the sports domestic charges there is no way a dude should so much as lay his hands on a woman. Domestic violence is getting to be equivalent to rape hysteria. I wonder if there is sort of women run "dirty work" service like that norm macdonald movie where they will use their bitch powers to just unravel the girl on social media? Its a more effective way to break a woman down these days anyhow. A black eye would just make her a hero.

[lskdfjldsf]

These aren't issues, but the political establishment is certainly doing its best to make them issues in time for the presidential election.
The Democrats used up their "race" fuel with Obama, now it's gender. Count on this being front and center in 2016.

[IvanDrago]

Politicians don't care about anything but power. They don't care about "issues". They see a parade marching and run out to the street and march in front so it looks like they are leading. It doesn't matter which actor is playing president on TV because that is what they are, actors. Have fun voting yo.

[The PerSev]

Et tu Don...

[Kickb]

I'm pretty blown away at how much this domestic assault stuff has blown up like it has in the past month.

There must be some serious $$$$$$ flying around behind the scenes.

[kbell]

Even NYTimes recognized there is a double standard with Hope Solo. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/20/sports...ither.html However they blame all of soccer rather than just the woman's league.

[tallandblonde]

Just democrats pandering to women voters. Nothing more.

[Collide]

They are just laying the groundwork for Hillary running next year. If you thought all this SJW shit was tiring now, brace yourselves. 2015 will be the war on women, and only Hillary can save the country from this oppressive patriarchy.

[aSimpNamedBrokeback]

You guys give women too much credit. If Hillary wins on 2016 it will be because of the weak candidate the republicans nominate not women rallying against the patriarchy. Women in the country couldn't rally together for anything.

[Days of Broken Arrows]

Jon Hamm, Kerry Washington, and Questlove are the three main celebrities participating in this campaign.

We should start a betting pool as to which one of them will first be arrested for a domestic violence incident -- or which one will have a lover from the past suddenly appear and accuse them of something.

Whenever people are involved in an extreme cause (which this is), I sense there are weird psychological reasons -- like with the anti-gay fanatics who end up getting caught in men's restrooms.

Two of the most sanctimonious soap boxers on my facebook last week were two guys who I assumed have handed out a couple domestic beat downs in the past.

[kbell]

Jon Hamm played an alpha on Mad Men, but I guess is pretty beta in real life. Big time Democrat in real life(although that isn't what makes him beta) and playing the alpha must have gotten to his conscience.

Why is Obama doing this ? Two reasons:

1) There is a mid-term election right around the corner and we have to remind all the single carousel riding females that the GOP will take away their birth control and that Obama and his ilk are the only ones who fight their evil. What's the GOP response going to be? Anything other than silence will be interpreted as an endorsement of rape.

and

2) Because Bill Clinton would have had a conflict of interest with the message.

Wrong, and wrong by a lot.

Obama spent 4 years bankrupting the middle class. Doubling the national debt with nothing to show for it other than paying off his rich friends, creating larger economic bubbles, destroying our healthcare system and increasing the number of people who can't provide for themselves and depend on a govt that is heading to default.

So how did Obama win in 2012?

The Democrats tried something that had never been tried before. They doubled down. They knew they had nothing to run on. Obama had been beyond a failure. And then right before the election you have the Benghazi cover up. No way he could win this election, unless...

They pander to women. They put all their chips on the table in hopes that women as a group really are that stupid. They make up a "war on women" and then make up the Republicans are the fault for it. As if women are not concerned with income or safety and basically only care about abortion and birth control pills.

And it worked perfectly. The 2012 election will go down in history of when the USA officially "jumped the shark". For the first time in the history of the country, the women decided the president. The men voted for Romney. The women voted for Obama. The women got their way as they were 54% of the voters.

The 2012 election was the new ultra feminist blue print for the Democrats. Men no longer matter at all as a voter base. Pander to women, even if it means destroying men's rights. It will win elections.

As bad as things have been, we are just seeing the start of some real bad shit. I wish I could get out now, but it will be a while.

[Zebra_Cakes]

My respect for Kevin Love and Jon Hamm just took a nose dive.

Many politicians and those higher-ups in corporations are psychopaths. They will use anyone or anything to manipulate the general public to get the desired result that they wish.

Google the name Jim Messina and learn all about the architect of the strategy of which you reference - you're right on the money.

Also do not underestimate the effect of kneecapping nascent opposition fund raising groups via IRS stonewalling of their Section 527 applications. As long as those applications sat in limbo for months or even years, the groups could not fund raise. Whaddya know, damn near all of them were conservative-leaning groups. This is well documented and Lois Lerner is on tape describing the post-Citizens United ruling and the pressure put on her office in the IRS.

Once the Citizens United decision came down, the Dems lost a unique advantage they had via fundraising (it was always ok to fund raise from unions, groups that almost unanimously support the DNC). With Citizens United, groups that favored the GOP were now able to create similar fundraising arms catering to private industry and private individual interests (Tea Party, Israel, etc.). The DNC was willing to do anything to stop it. An entire election strategy ran on vapid, drive-by bullshit and sound bites while unemployment was (and still is) well over 8%, and the stuffed shirt in chief still won - even after getting his ass kicked in the first debate.

Romney's incessant gaffes (ten thousand dollar bet; binder full of women; I like to fire people) did not do us any favors either, but with that extra money they probably would have had the election in the bag.

If women stopped fucking violent, abusive men--domestic violence would stop over night.

If women stopped fucking violent men and having their children, violence would disappear in a few centuries, maybe even a few decades--as the genetic propensity for violence and badboy-loving is eliminated from the population.

Where's the PSA on that?

[redbeard]

I always knew Kevin Love was a beta simp. Spends too much time worrying about white knighting for rebounds.

There is a sports comedy podcast called Punch Drunk Sports hosted by a few LA comedians and they talk a lot about Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson and all this shit in the most recent episode from a couple days ago. They actually make the above point and basically agree with the sentiment on here. Check it out.

Comedians are the last public figures who can truly speak their mind about these kinds of things and aside from TV deals and stuff, they can't be fired.
