The term suggested is “pro-crime” leftist. I’d prefer pro-chaos leftist, because the Far Left has always sown chaos as the perfect compost for expended government power and totalitarianism. Somehow, the Far Left is now just the Left. How unhinged (or sinister) are these people? Behold Anna Krauthammer, for whom indoctrination, mainstreamed bias from the new media and an IQ below freezing resulted in her authorship of “Why I Didn’t Report My Rape” at the Socialist/Communist rag “The Nation.”
She’s a “prison abolitionist,” as well as a Defund the Police lunatic and a “law enforcement is racist” puppet. Here’s enough of a sample of her nonsense to send you to the nearest toilet:
“There in that hotel, a little over four years ago, I was raped by a group of men during a three-day trip I took to Las Vegas with two of my best friends. The simple answer to the question of why I never reported the rape is that I believe in the abolition of police and prisons. I don’t want to ruin the lives of my rapists and I don’t know if they have children. I have believed in and used the term prison abolition for at least a decade, but for less time than I’ve felt in my bones that I could never participate in any chain of events that might send someone to prison.”
Ah! You’re a moron, then! Good to know. By the way, she DID participate in a chain of events that should send someone to prison: she was a participant (or victim) in a rape. Why is any magazine giving a platform to someone whose heartfelt opinion makes as much sense as someone who believes that insects are crawling around under her skin? Because increasing numbers of American are accepting this junk, that’s why. The safety of other women matters less than the freedom of rapists. Hey, sounds good to me! A related distortion is that the safety of female athletes matters less than desires and delusions of the males want to be them. This same slippery slope leads to Black Lives Matter, DEI and Minnesota and other addled regions in which illegal aliens are the victims and I.C.E. agents are the criminals.
Yesterday on another awful CNN panel, some twerp told Scott Jennings that people shouldn’t be allowed to call the non-citizens here illegally “illegal.” I realized the futility and failure of my life as I saw that that guy on a CNN panel as I’m snowbound in a cold office writing posts that a few thousand people read on a good day. Where did I go wrong?
But I digress, Sorry.
Krauthammer is the whole package: she embraces all woke, ethically inert fantasies. Of the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, she wrote,
“Shortly after the attack, rumors began to circulate that Hamas soldiers had sexually assaulted Israeli women on a wide scale during Operation al-Aqsa Flood; that December, the New York Times bolstered these claims with the publication of “Screams Without Words,” an article that contained multiple accounts of assault. The report galvanized the Israeli war effort, mitigating public opposition to prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s genocidal campaign. To watch rape’s callous weaponization play out in real time, as the sexual violence allegedly perpetrated by Hamas abetted the manufacture of consent for the merciless slaughter of “savage” Palestinians, was to understand in the cruelest and starkest of terms just how eagerly imperial forces will alight upon even the allegation of rape to rationalize their projects.”
Rumors. But you must admit, she does write well for someone who is, you know, as mad as the March Hare.
We are witnessing an attack on American society via an attack on reality, morality, law, history, experience and common sense.

“I’ve felt in my bones that I could never participate in any chain of events that might send someone to prison.”
Uh, sweetheart, is that a Freudian slip? Who participates in a rape other than the rapist? So, you’re saying it was a consensual gangbang with a bunch of guys you met in Vegas? Should the headline be, “Anything that happens in Vegas stays in Vegas? Maybe the real reason you didn’t report the rape was that it wasn’t a rape? Are you trying to get major virtue signaling points out of a “chain of events” you’re ashamed of and trying to whitewash into something meritorious?
This is nice. An Irishman in Holland is running a wiki page to out ICE agents and provide their identities and personal information to anyone:

“What’s wrong with these people?”
Tori Osterberg, 36, of Phoenix, holds a sign while openly carrying a shotgun during an interfaith vigil outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in downtown Phoenix
From the Arizona Republic’s article and photo gallery reporting on a demonstration outside an ICE office in Phoenix. Would a right winger guy get away with doing something like that?
Oh, I was wrong. It wasn’t a protest, it was an interfaith vigil.
Moron though Krauthammer certainly is, we won’t stop the morons from winning if we don’t get curious as to how they see things.
Does she think that rape is something an otherwise decent person can do in a moment of weakness, like shoplifting or joyriding?
Under what circumstances would she consider an offender to have ruined their own life, and her reporting them to be a natural consequence of their actions? Would she report a murderer?
Did she fail to report the rapists for another reason that she’s subconsciously ashamed of and rationalize it to herself after the fact?
What does she think should be done about rapists, if not imprisoning them for the safety of others?
On a related note, how exactly does she expect a society to function with no police or prisons? (These are the sorts of empty ideals that the Left tends to have more of than the Right, simply because the Left tends to want change more than the Right. Every improvement is a change, but not every change is an improvement.) In the history of humanity, there have been (and still are) small communities with no formal law enforcement or incarceration. I think at some point they banish dangerous members or just kill them.
These are some of the questions we should be asking.
