which truth is that, that no one hates women like other women?
look at the current climate, i see a lot of woman-hating from all sides, including supposed allies on the left looking for a scapegoat. the oversimplified victim-blaming of dumping our president-elect at the feet of women (again) demonstrates very little understanding of gendered power dynamics and very little effort to build coalition.
to this i would add the threads blaming racial and ethnic minorities, the poor, and the poorly educated.
do you want less suffering in the world, or are you no better than the right in looking for someone to blame, and someone whose suffering you can enjoy because, “they asked for it, they voted for it, they deserve it?”
as i just said in another comment, it scares me to see this shit AGAIN.
this narrative is not making women any safer!
i really love seeing this narrative again. i watched it last time he was elected, now i’m watching it again. it’s the left’s own brand of mysogyny, and it’s not making women any safer.
there was a story here recently about a lot of scamming happening on truth social. so yeah.
i remember that post, was actually hoping to find it again as there had been some great recommendations! glad you mentioned it here.
i would absolutely try this.
i eat a LOT of kraut, probably five days a week. also enjoy sardines and mayo on toast with capers. followed by kraut, which pairs well with the salty capered dregs left in the sardine tin.
i sent it to my teenagers. i see what they’re up to.
ut = hook 'em, a&m = gig 'em
this makes me irrationally angry. who thought this was a clever idea?!
he’s a parent.
probably after 9/11, but i already had questions as a kid connected to the cold war.
i don’t mind the humor, because good lord it’s so damn depressing otherwise.
edit - just saw the news, my comment is moot, i suppose.
let me try this another way. i don’t agree with the statement that a is currently causing b, because i don’t see a happening. b has some other cause.
i don’t think pushing for Biden is leading to a Trump win, because i don’t see many people pushing for Biden. i see a lot of people (social media, talking heads, news outlets) complaining about Biden.
if Dems and progressives want to defeat Trump, well, you coulda fooled me because that’s not what their behavior accomplishes. it looks like a great many are weakening and undermining our current path to success. right now, with no compelling alternative, that means a Trump win.
as far as i can tell, we can support Biden or continue to shoot at our own feet in a panic which only makes the opposition stronger.
and i will see it repeated endlessly online over the next several years, paired with a lot of “serves them right” style comments.
it doesn’t help women or anyone else.
this is not the way forward.
