World Cup US Men's team v Platner
I can't help but see the difference between how some treated the US Men's team, especially one 25 YO player and how some are excusing a grown-ass man and attacking the women (yes, multiple) who have credibly accused him.
Somehow, one young man was supposed to withdraw from tonight's game or have no integrity, but Platner is not expected to take responsibility for his actions and it's all the wimmenz fault.
Just a thought experiment.
