Salon Gaslights Readers, Claims Attacks on Women in NYC Were 'Unleashed by MAGA'

The far-left Salon magazine is blaming the rise of random attacks on women in New York City on men who are supportive of the MAGA movement.

In a commentary by writer Amanda Marcotte, the writer starts out by explaining the recent phenomenon and noting that men of "different races and ages" are responsible:

Men are punching random women on the streets of New York City. As usual with these kinds of diffuse and chaotic stories, there's much that is unknown, including how often this is happening, how many people are involved, or whether it's at all coordinated.

Women report being assaulted by men of different races and ages. Still, across the different stories, a couple of similarities pop out: The alleged victims are mostly young and pretty, and most of them say they were minding their own business when they were attacked.

...

CNN reports that dozens of women have discussed being victims on social media, and formally interviewed six of them. NBC News reports there have been at least 3 arrests. CBS News reports that NYPD released images last week of a fourth man wanted for allegedly punching a woman in Union Square. Even reality TV star Bethany Frankel says she's been victimized. https://redstate.com/benkew/2024/04/08/salon-gaslights-readers-claimsattacks-on-women-in-nyc-were-unleashed-by-maga-n2172478
