The political Left has spent years promoting the slogan “Believe All Women,” using it as a powerful weapon against conservatives, especially during critical events like the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearings. But this mantra has never been about seeking justice or protecting victims; instead, it serves as a cynical tool for gaining power – a way to undermine opponents while conveniently overlooking the serial abusers, gropers, and predators within their own ranks.
When the alleged victims are conservative women, or when the accused belong to the “right” political party, the Left’s proclaimed solidarity vanishes, replaced by silence, excuses, and even cover-ups. This hypocrisy is a fundamental aspect of a movement that prioritizes tribal loyalty over truth, power over principles, and narrative over the genuine suffering of women.
True protection for women requires consistency, evidence, and fairness – not selective blindness from those on the Left.
Take Joe Biden, the dilapidated standard-bearer of the Democrat Party. Tara Reade, a former Senate staffer, came forward with detailed allegations that Biden sexually assaulted her in 1993 by pinning her against a wall and digitally penetrating her. There was corroboration for her claims, including a friend she confided in at the time and a 1993 call to Larry King’s show in which her mother referenced the incident.
However, the mainstream media, which claims to support the #BelieveWomen and the #MeToo movements, downplayed the story, questioned Reade’s credibility, and defended Biden. The New York Times and the Washington Post published skeptical investigations that minimized Biden’s pattern of “inappropriate touching” with multiple women. When Biden denied the allegations, the Left largely shrugged it off and continued to support him.
In contrast, any conservative accusation is met with immediate, intense scrutiny. Reade’s claims posed a threat to the favorable image of their presidential candidate, so the media largely ignored them. Women only seem to matter when their stories align with the cause.
Andrew Cuomo, the former governor of New York who was once celebrated as “America’s Governor” during the COVID-19 pandemic, faced credible allegations of sexual harassment from multiple women, including former staff members. These women described a troubling pattern of unwanted advances, groping, and a hostile work environment. Cuomo resigned amid the scandal; however, many Democrats rallied to his defense, with some downplaying the allegations as mere political attacks.
The media, which called for resignations in response to lesser offenses by conservatives, treated Cuomo’s downfall as a reluctant necessity rather than a justified outrage. Where were the #BelieveAllWomen and #MeToo movements during this situation? Nowhere – because Cuomo was a powerful Democrat.
Al Franken, a comedian who later became a Senator, faced accusations from multiple women regarding inappropriate touching and forced kisses during his career in entertainment and politics. Photos surfaced of him mock-groping a sleeping colleague. Although Franken resigned from his position, many prominent voices on the Left, including some feminists, expressed regret over the loss of what they considered a “good man” and questioned whether the response was proportional. The urgency for judgment, typically directed at Republicans, was replaced by concerns about due process – only when it was convenient for their side.
