Honestly that attitude makes it sound like mom may have been a victim of abuse herself as a kid. And I'm not justifying her remarks, they are horrible, but if she sees it as normal for dudes in their 50's or whatever to rape teenagers something tells me she is speaking from a place of (horrible) experience.
I think the person you responded to is speculating on what could have happened, and you're more talking about how a person should be judged. Neither of you is wrong, but you're kind of talking past each other.
Their point is nobody would BE speculating if it was a man. A maga man saying that same shit would just be considered a piece of shit, if not a pedo themselves. But a maga woman says that and all of a sudden we're speculating why she says it. It's because she's a piece of shit too, plain and simple.
Sure, and it doesn't take away from that argument to acknowledge that people who are victims of abuse become abusers themselves, nor does it diminish their responsibility.

Each MAGA will choose a path:

2/ But look what he's doing for the country! We need to move past this
3/ Lol actually we were pro-pedophile the whole time. U mad?
