Many people speak of the #MeToo era as past tense but it seems like we’re seeing a resurgence of news coming out about famous men behaving like Caligula as emperors of their own private empires. Sean Puffy Combs, Luther Campbell of 2 Live Crew fame, New Jack Swing/R&B pioneer Aaron Hall, and the latest to be named, and maybe the most outrageous is president of WWE wrestling Vince McMahon.
If you haven’t read any of the allegations against McMahon or watched any news regarding it, like this show today, it may not be safe for work. Per the court documents McMahon, while having a threesome, stopped, defecated on the head of one the participants, then went on to continue with the intercourse.
Now a central theme in these cases is that the women involved didn’t want to go as far as their more powerful male counterparts wanted to go, there were large age, fame and of course financial gaps in the relationships.

Wright, Levine & Sober's "Reconstructing Marxism" (1992) is a brilliant book. But we need to think harder than WLS do about how to steer away from left identitarianism and reconstruct class politics.
