Trump is a product of American patriarchy, not an aberration.

America

Their words

They grew up in a United States of America in which Donald Trump was fruition, not an aberration; in which Donald Trump, sexual predator, could surround himself with other sexual predators and misogynists in a reminder that powerful and violent men rarely, if ever, are held accountable and that those powerful and violent men are rewarded, not punished.

Electing a president accused of sexual assault tells men they can assault with impunity.

America

Their words

When more than two dozen women have said that the current president of the United States of America sexually assaulted them and the majority of voters in the U.S. chose him not once but twice to be their president, it sends a blaring, glaring greenlight to men everywhere that they too can sexually assault with impunity.

What is a korrent?

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.

Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.

Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post

Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.

The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.

Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
