Refusing to drag people lets them know that their behavior is acceptable, which is exactly how we got this whole rich powerful men problem to begin with: we told them that being decadently wealthy--and powerful as a result--was not only okay but *desirable* since at least the 1980's, and they've been obliging us generation after generation ever since. We made them our *heroes* decade after decade while ignoring their bullshit. That was the poison that set into the country, and plenty of women had a helping hand in that little cultural endeavor. Now we're here. And don't look now, but there's a whole lot of Melania's peers ignoring her bullshit as we speak. We reap what we sow. We either end it or keep letting it flourish folks.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad the Molly Jong-Fasts of the world are finally coming out and talking about the culture they collectively enabled for decades, but it's a day late and a dollar short now isn't it? How many millennial women suffered at the hands of a culture their mothers helped create do you think? Our moms failed us just as much as our fathers did. Who do you think helped protect the decadent sons young women are dealing with now via wealth? The mothers. They made sure to marry a solid provider so that their decadent ass sons could have as much financial protection from societal accountability as humanly possible. It buys you through the faux-meritocracy and makes sure the women you abuse don't land you in jail when you inevitably make it to the top because of the connections you made at the good schools your mom made sure you got sent to. This American house of cards has a lot of layers, and a lot of hands were involved in building those layers over the years. They always seem to wait until the end of their lives before they finally come out and acknowledge the cultural toxicity they helped enable. Just like Trump cabinet officials.
