No, you're right: highly respected and professionally stable women often go out of their way to drag themselves and their reputations through the mud to have no effect on the nomination and subsequent appointment of a Supreme Court Justice. That makes perfect sense.
- concordDance 8y agoYou're looking at it the wrong way. The question is not what the odds are of a given professional and highly respected woman lying/having false memories. The question is what are the odds of such a person existing. Here's a a scenario with made up numbers where you can insert your own: Imagine your starting population is 60 million, assume only 1 in 100 are very passionate. Assume that only 1 in 100 very passionate people are willing to lie and drag their reputationa through the mud to fight a great evil. Assume only 1 in 100 of those people are respectable. That still would leave 60 respectable people willing to lie and fight hard in order to fight a great evil.
