What's Ayelet Waldman's deal? She did something or wrote something in the past woke era that garnered controversy

Ayelet has fried her brain microdosing LSD, no wonder her kid's damaged.

They both look high AF on pain meds at OP’s pic.

The son probably grew up without any supervision or rules, as his parents were probably too high to give AF, and probably passed him some pills, booze, or weed, in order to keep their benefits friendly family facade in tact.

A true shame that his family legacy was to become a spoiled brat who sees nothing wrong with breaking the law, but that’s what happens when parents refuse to answer the following question:

What the fuck exactly will your children do/become, if you as parents, become disabled, and/or eventually die???

[quote]“Abe is innocent and was as shocked by these false allegations as anyone,” Chabon’s lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, said in a statement. “He has strong family support and a devoted partner who all believe in his innocence,” Chaudhry said. “We hope the prosecutors’ investigation reveals his innocence quickly. Meanwhile, we prepare to fiercely fight this false allegation and clear this gentle young man’s name.”

"He's devoted and gentle, how could he possibly have choked that floozy?" Oh, but this Priya Chaudhry cunt plays dirty, nothing beats having a woman-hating female lawyer when you're accused of rape.

Abraham Chabon, 20, was charged June 12 with second-degree strangulation and first-degree rape earlier in the alleged Jan. 25, 2024, attack, according to a felony complaint unsealed in court.

Honestly, they both appear to be two narcissistic losers with no self-awareness and total trainwrecks. Of course they would produce a violent rapist.

by Anonymousreply 20July 9, 2025 5:54 AM

Not for nothing I’ll just add here that Chabon and Waldman are best friends with Neil Gaiman and Gaiman was married Chabon and Waldman’s house. Gaiman is an accused rapist. At some point one begins to wonder if there’s a culture of misogyny in that group.

It's his fault that he had sex with anyone in Gen Z/Gen Alpha, where most sex is rape and what isn't rape is grooming. If you're not a victim, you're nothing.

Joan Didion nailed this trendy fear-of-sex attitude and obsession with victimization in her (in)famous essay on the women's movement in 1969.

Here we are again.

R27 is Robert Chambers.

by Anonymousreply 28July 9, 2025 7:01 AM

It's weird how you're choosing to not believe the victim and your main piece of evidence is an essay about feminism written during Nixon's first term, r27.

Maybe you should forward that essay to the DA and they'll drop the charges. I assume they have zero evidence against him and charged him with rape because Gen Z culture demanded it.

by Anonymousreply 29July 9, 2025 7:23 AM

I don't automatically believe the ACCUSER, no.

If it goes to trial, a jury will determine if she was the VICTIM of a crime.

That's how these things should be handled, not in the kangaroo court of social media.

by Anonymousreply 37July 9, 2025 1:28 PM

Seems it's going to be hard to argue that it was consensual. When did young kids get so edgy about forced sex and strangulation while fucking?

I don't think any of the stories feature young Chabon's explanation; I'm looking forward to hearing what he comes up with. The only other option is that the victim is certifiable.

by Anonymousreply 38July 9, 2025 1:30 PM

Strangulation has been normalized for young straight men through porn brainwashing. Girls are gaslighted into thinking that if they don't put up with it, they will "get nothing".

When news of this first broke around Father's Day, several articles referred to it as a particularly brutal assault. I'm not sure if that was for clicks or if they've heard there's evidence that backs it up.

Michael Chabon had several gay relationships.....still can't believe he's married and has multiple kids.

He was beautiful when he was younger.

I honestly thought that kid was also gay, surprised to see the accusation.

by Anonymousreply 43July 9, 2025 2:57 PM

There’s barely any mention of it on Twitter, either.

I can’t imagine how much Chabon has paid to keep the internet gossips silent.

I can only hope that a brilliant and surely complex new Michael Chabon novel comes out of all this mess.

He is one of my favorite authors, Kavalier & Clay is a masterpiece and I also love Telegraph Avenue and Moonglow (which is highly autobiographical).

R4 and R5 she also wrote an infamous esssy where she proclaimed she’d never lover her children as much as she loves her husband.

Thinking that didn’t go over well with the kids.

I dunno, R55, I always assumed my mother loved my father more than me and my siblings.

Because part of their love involved sex. And I didn't want to fuck my parents.

But maybe that's just me!
