  • Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s divorce started as a celebrity scandal, but has evolved into a larger discussion surrounding the harassment many women face when trying to leave a relationship. In this episode, host Roy Wood Jr. sits down with Daily Show writer Christiana Mbakwe-Medina and journalist Rachel Louise Snyder to discuss how The Daily Show has covered this topic, the many types of violence women endure on a daily basis, and the lengths women go to in order to feel safe.

      The burden is shared by everyone. It is Your burden to prevent someone trying to endanger your safety. It is the states burden to punish someone after they commit a crime.
      Like if I see someone following me, and still choose a dark, unlit, street to walk down. I failed in prevention of the assault or robbery, after it happens I can only hope for justice through the authorities, but they can't go back and stop the issue before it ever happened.

We have to do some type of offensive protest. Petition a "vasectomy bill" insist State funded programs. Free prenatal treatment and supplies. All children born in states that prohibit abortion can receive child support thru a fund that supports all children born in that state till the age of 18. AND State funded self defense classes for women. We have to stop the madness!!

    "Men are dumb" - No, they're not. I'm tired of this expression being used to excuse men's unacceptable behavior towards women. Ask yourself the question: "Would a man do this to another man?" The answer is almost always a resounding "No." Men KNOW what kind of behavior is acceptable and what is not acceptable. They know this because they would never do it to another man, and they would find it unacceptable if another man behaved similarly towards them. Men actively CHOOSE to behave unacceptably towards women. Men are not dumb; they are fully aware of what they are doing and they do it because they want to. And that should tell you all you need to know about the kind of people they truly are.

    this observation made in the video really resonates with me: when a woman has to pretend that she has a man in the house who will protect her from other men showing up at the house. it's almost like she's forced to assert that she is the property of a man, to get other men to respect her guy's property rights.

Give us your money so you can have protection, say no & you run the chance to see everything go up in flames. But they are the ones wrecking havoc & chaos & burning everything. The delusion is not recognizing how its all linked, connecting. Not recognizing this is how the male energy on this planet is coercively forcing women to entertain man & not seek independence & to keep at it, even after they have broken us. Just look at Indian's & most oft he Arabic societies, there is no limit to what the women are subject to over there & yet having a men in the household for protection is everything. creating internalized misogyny & severe cognitive dissonance

    I'm Mexican. I lived as an immigrant in NYC and faced stalking and harassment by men almost everyday on my way to work, one time I was followed and attacked but had the determination to fight and I survived. Going to the police to file a report was devastating, policemen in NYC rather protect an invisible man and tried to criminalize the woman in front of them. The patriarchal pact is a real thing. I thought I was being courageous to report so that other women wouldn't be attacked by that man, instead I was risking being put in jail in a foreign country, miles away from my loved ones for having been able to defend myself without getting any "visible bruises". I had the luck of having an American colleague by my side stepping up for me when the police tried to criminalize me for trying to report the crime of a man. Reporting in NYC is just as bad as reporting in Mexico. Men will go to incredible extents to protect other men from being accountable, at the expense of women's lives. I'm grateful to the Daily show for placing this in its agenda, for listening to its women writers, and having its men talk about it. It should be clear from this how abandoned by society common women are if someone as powerful as a Kardashian is not safe from this. Thank you Christiana, thank you Trevor, thank you Roy. Please don't stop talking about all the ignored and invisible violence that women suffer just for going to work, for going to the laundromat, for deciding to be single, for going to school, for walking outside, for trying to exist outside the property of a man.

False ID would be found out within minutes when they check to the national database.

It shouldn't take a TV show pointing these things out, to you, or to anyone. The best penance you can do for not caring enough about women, in the past, to notice what you and all other men have been doing to us, openly, for all to see, is to go around and inform your "brothers" (men everywhere) about the real problem, and that it's *their* responsibility, ALONE, to fix it.

    Thank you to all of you and Trevor for doing this segment. It is very much needed. I spotted the harassment of Kim from day one. This is also why I hate the domestic violence laws in this country. The cops show up and the matter is treated more like a family squabble than an actual crime. If you step out on the street and strike a stranger, you will be treated more harshly than someone who abuses his spouse. (Yes, women can also be abusive.) No one deserves this kind of abuse, not even Kim Kardashian.

      Think you missed the point of the post, including the explanation that woman can be abusers.
      If your friend wife had gone out and stabbed a stranger, she would have been arrested. However, because it was 'domestic abuse' the police treated the situation entirely differently. They turned up, ignored all the evidence in front of them, judged the situation entirely on personal bias, and decided to proceed without even a rudimentary investigation. That behavour is often what lets the abuser off completely, ensuring the prosecutor has little to actually proceed with should they go to trial.
      That is the exact problem Dani highlighted!

    Abusers are not complicated people. It is very simple. An abusive person believes they have a right to do whatever they want to and around their victim. They see their victim as an object and do not care how it affects them as long as the effect is to give the abuser a feeling of power and control.
    We only think they are complicated because many abusers outside the relationship are charming and upstanding members of the community. It's not complicated. They choose to indulge their abusive nature when and where they feel safe and justified doing it, and they choose to act like a decent person when and where decency gives them an advantage.
    This shows they have a very self-centered worldview. People with that belief are not complicated. The only variation is how far individual abusers are willing to indulge their abusive natures. But the pattern is always the same.

The amount of time and thought that goes into "staging" is exhausting. Placing men's shoes all conspicuously all over the house, leaving mail out with my husband's name on top, putting out the giant water bowl and dog toys for the fictitious big dog, etc. Always trying to think of more and more things that might be a deterrent, and you still don't know if it's enough. It sounds crazy when I think about it, I feel silly, but there's that unshakable feeling that of course the one time I don't do all these things is when some random repair guy circles back at night and strangles me with a lamp cord or something.

    I live in a village in Alaska. It’s not only dangerous to walk around at night here (which sounds crazy) but it’s very dangerous when I have to travel to Anchorage to go to the hospital or to go shopping. My boyfriend suggested staying at an Airbnb, which would be less expensive, and I would be able to buy groceries to bring back to our home. But I won’t be doing that. I have to stay at a hotel that costs twice as much, because it’s safer. Cab drivers, Lyft and Uber drivers won’t have the ability to come to my door. I have to be in a place where there are other people, period.

    • @ellanina801
      @ellanina801 Před 2 lety

      @@busterofcoviddeniers why does invalidating the subject of female dv victims help the cause for male dv victims? They pointed out that it’s an issue for male victims, and even according to your stat, 75 percent are female victims. Maybe instead of shutting down discussion against violence against women, you should lead a productive conversation about violence against men (which to be honest, even against men doesn’t mean it’s enacted against women). Shutting down women dv victims in favor of any other agenda is perpetuating the abuses against them and invalidated your argument.
      So, let’s say, “It is so hard to go through that. I am a DV survivor as well. I have known of male domestic violence victims, so it is not just a woman’s issue, and we should continue the conversation to include male and other gendered victims as well. I think that if all dv survivors and allies, regardless of gender, stood together, we could really make a difference. It is necessary for all of our voices to be heard to enable victims to stand up to abuse, to make the necessary policy changes to protect victims, and to gain awareness so that people are more likely to stand up for victims rather than push them down.”

Discussion of male survivors is another video altogether, and they didn’t even talk about women’s shelters and whatnot. The way you brought it up wasn’t in such a way to expound on what was being discussed, but in a fashion that would invalidate the video. We can group the male and female victims together, and also non-binary and agender victims, but that would be a very loooong video. Also, the experiences are a bit different. And maybe there shouldn’t be male shelters because the solution will be different since there are fewer male victims, and you can’t put them in the same shelter as women. We can’t help male victims if we are diminishing the experience and the sheer quantity of female victims. Also, where are you getting your stats?

      A physically violent abuser is never *more* in control than when assaulting their victim. There have been studies made of such relationships, and when the abuser "loses control" at that moment their pulse, blood pressure, drops back to normal and mind calms, they are at their most self-controlled. "I lost control, couldn't help myself" is a lie.

    A really well done discussion of domestic violence against women. Thank you all!! One approach that seems to help is a program for men who are put on probation, with regular check-ins with their probation officers..The most important thing they do though, is to attend a weekly therapeutic group based on “The Duluth Model” (as in Duluth, Minnesota.).The program lasts for a full year, which seems to be the key aspect that sets it apart in being helpful and healing. Most groups like this last 6 months. According to my sister who got trained in the model, and led a group in New Mexico for a year, it takes more than 6 months (more like 10+ months) for lifelong defenses to begin to soften and allow the person to get to the childhood traumas that underlie violent behavior in adulthood. The emotional injuries are patterns of abandonment and neglect to such a degree that in adult relationships,the person feels such fear that he needs to control his partner completely and that often includes physical, emotional, financial violence.
