Not OK, ” “So the humor here is that real women have, in the past & recently, come forward about being raped by this man?” “This is the dumbest tweet I’ve ever read…. And I’ve seen some damn dumb tweets, ” and “Maybe I’m just a downer, but decent ppl don’t take the horrendous crimes committed against others as joke opportunities.”
