I agree with this but there's quite a bit of dissonance when our sitting president was accused countless times in 2016 and apparently gets a pass Accusations mean nothing. There needs to be something there either proving someone did it, Witnesses, confessions, or at the very least circumstancial evidence. In the case of Roy Moore there is no proof he did, but there are mounds upon mounds upon mounds of circumstantial evidence that he did, that I don't feel wrong in saying it's pretty safe bet he's a rapist, and a "e" something "phile" the one that likes teens and preteens. --- FFDragon posted: mwc was right all along <cite>SSJBKK20Vegito posted [p:891705057] in Time Perso...

I agree with this but there's quite a bit of dissonance when our sitting president was accused countless times in 2016 and apparently gets a pass And has over the past year thrown support to both Bill O'Reilley and Roy Moore during their accusations. Donald is directly at odds with the movement. In a way though, it feels like this award is trying to bridge that dissonance together and make that conversation happen again more seriously. I've not read their article about it, but to have these people as #1 and Donald as #2 seems to hint at it. --- Posted using GameFlux Get it now for Android from Google Play! <cite>HaRRicH posted [p:891705062] in Time Perso...

And we are on the same page that domestically the NFL has been the biggest story all year. I don't care about foreign at that time, and certainly neither should Time. IIRC the US comprises of around 75% of Time's subscription base, that's not an insignificant amount for the rest of the world. This obviously leads to the magazine to be bias towards the US which is fair. Metoo was also pretty big in the US, especially during the later part of the year (which adds recency bias) so it wouldn't be like the NFL would blow it out of the water in the US market. If the match gave the NFL a 55-60% win among the US market I could easily see the rest of the world tilting the scale towards Metoo given that NFL issues is non-existent to the rest of the world. --- Congratulations to BKSheikah for winning the guru <cite>charmander6000 posted [p:891705181] in Time Perso...
