I am appalled that WHITE WOMEN did this to us. How could they support an obese rapist with more make up than a drag queen? Phyllis Schafly and Anita Bryant come to mind...

Uneducated white men and their wives not just white women married white women doing what their husbands tell them to do because they’re not very smart and don’t have the capacity to think on their own especially about anything is complicated as politics. They’d rather go get their nails done for $150 a nail.

I am a Female Retired Vet, who also worked for the Federal Government for 15 years after I retired. With my post 911 GI bill I got 3 Masters Degrees. I thought I needed more education, to get promoted. I worked extra hard while the white male vets got promoted with a HS education. My military bosses tried to hold me back my entire career, my Federal job was the same. I fought it and moved up but they always made it as hard as possible for me. I was never in the club, nor did I want to be after a while. They harassed me so much I retired early. I never regretted retiring a second time, 5 years ago now.

I registered as a Republican years ago because I thought it would get me in the club, but it didnt. At one election I voted Democrat. Then when the club picked Trump I knew i could not be a Republican on paper anymore, so I am true to myself since 2015 and switched to a Democrat. The right club. I will never ever bow to this asshole for all the reasons you just talked about. It is awful to see people clinging to Trumps words when I know he could care less about them.

I hope they wake up and realize he truly is the enemy. He is a domestic terrorist. Women are targets for him, and if they think otherwise they are fooling themselves.

Thanks for trying to help them and not being in that other club.

Way back in the early 60's, we'll before Title IX, at a major state university in corn country, I encountered a young woman out on the quadrangle weeping. She came from a farm family. I asked her what was wrong? She told me her grades were good, but they would not let her into the vet school, because being a woman, they knew she would not be able to handle the big animals well enough.

yeah the tradwife trend is fading fast though. These women have been brainwashed by the patriarchy and have benefitted from it, and therefore very fearful of giving up their creature comforts. I work with "former" women like this who want to reclaim themselves and who they are. Many have been indoctrinated into this submissiveness by churches since they were little girls. TO me most of them have been emotionally abused and have no idea who they are or what they believe. They are empty shells.

It's a fantastic series but extremely dark, horrifying and just over all heavy. So I completely understand not wanting to watch it. But I can confirm that the lead, Elisabeth Miss, is a total badass. She's incredible in it. The final season airs this April. How timely. I also just bought the book, one of the many that's considered a banned book.

They're usually so belligerent, they only want to be right. They already villainize everybody who doesn't look like them, sound like them, and/or act like them. So, sorry, but fk you, dude. I wouldn't sit and have a conversation with you, either, because you read just like the oppressor.

What I think people forget is that this election wasn’t about ideas and policies. It was about morals and ethics. We are never going to agree with maga. This isn’t whether you like pineapple on pizza. We aren’t going to sit down and be like oh I see where you’re coming from and you’re right.

If you voted for trump you did it selfishly. You’re never getting anything they “promised” EXCEPT harm to those you don’t like. The difference between myself and maga is that I would gladly pay higher taxes to support fellow citizens. I would gladly pay more to have universal healthcare, free education, free school lunches, help for single parents, extended paid maternity and paternity leave, and all those social programs maga looks at as waste. I believe in being a good steward of this planet. A good human being. I understand why we contribute to other nations.

MAGA is so consumed with hatred and anger. And whether you choose to believe it or not it is 100% a racist, white supremacy, nazi group. The fact that people try to say it’s not is disgusting. I’ve seen more disgustingly vile things spewed from the mouths of maga over the last 3 months. So why would I want to sit down with one? Because I am a firm believer of punching nazis in the face. Honestly I hope maga Jesus comes back and takes them all. This world would be such a better place if so.

The days of the loving liberals are gone when it comes to maga. MAGA are traitors to this country and traitors to this world. My suffering will be eased in knowing that maga will suffer the most, at the hands of their lord and savior trump. Never forget the words of Katniss Everdeen, “If WE burn, YOU burn with us”

That's a TV series of a futuristic society in which women are used to breed, take care of the home, kids, etc. Men run everything and most were abusive AF. There was a huge resistance going on, too. It's way more than that, but I won't give it away because it's very long. 6 Seasons with quite a few episodes. It can be expensive for some and I got them from Amazon Video. I saw 1 season and ended up binging the night of the election until I was finished.

I was in too much shock to do much else, because I knew this was going to be a shit show to the magnitude of nothing Americans have ever seen or experienced (who are alive in the 21st century). I've studied 1930's Nazi Germany, and THIS IS NOT A DRILL!

It's interesting, if women are taken out of the workforce and sent back home, the economy will collapse. One of the things that energized the economy was the increase in the workforce when women started to work outside the home in larger numbers. Of course, if they get their wish to replace a lot of government with AI, they won't need the workers.

Ladies! The billionaire class needs your babies for the wars they plan to fight. War is coming. The populations on this planet are all aging fast and many are shrinking. Putin is pushing for pregnancies. China’s one child policy has driven its population into old age and now, Xi Jinping wants pregnacies to rise. Hitler had his lebensborns. The Great Pirates are about to sail again! The evidence is here: MOTIVE (theft, organized armed robbery, and cancellation of debt by war), OPPORTUNITY ( societal grievances, debt ridden economies, inflation, weak neighbors), and MEANS (the Big Lies, elimination of democracy and replacement with a toxic brand of hateful nationalism and dictatorship). That’s the big picture, they want to farm you for your offspring, because the billionaires will need cannon fodder for their wars. Make no mistake, the winds of war are blowing again. Trump and Putin want to divide the world between them. They are a special class of sociopathic, gluttonous parasites.

Of course war is coming! War is always coming. We've just left the 20th Century and are a quarter of the way into the 21st Century. The 20th had more war than any other century. What gas changed about us? Why shouldn't the 21st Century be even more nasty than the last? As Thomas Hobbes said long ago, "War is the natural state of man." We are always arguing about something and the real reasons are seldom the stated reasons. War is essentially organized armed robbery. The leaders who propel us into it cover it with all kinds of reasons to fear the other guy. Religious reasons, cultural reasons. And, the BIG doozy is, we are being attacked. Who's done more attacking, Musk or the migrants in your town bussing tables, slinging hash, changing linens at your hotel or mowing lawns? What are they stealing from you?spies steal information. Howmuch information has Musk stolen with his henchman, Big Balls?There will always be wars and rumors of war, because there is a herd mentality deep inside of us. Read Reichsmarshall Goring's explanation about how easy it is for leaders to bring a people along into war when the best they can get out of is to come home in one piece. He said, you tell them they are being attacked (Nazi playbook 101). He said, it works in any form of government, democracy, communism or dictatorship. It works, because the ordinary Joe and Jane are busy scratching out a living and don't really know what's going on. Who benefits from war? The great pirates of the billionaire class, that's who. They love to create scapegoats (anybody who is different from you). But don't look at them billionaire Pirate class. They are the "chosen ones." God shed his grace on them. No, no, look at the poor migrants are who are stealing your lunch. And, don't look at us Republicans, it's the Democrats who are stabbing you in the back. Don't get educated you might find out something we don't want you to know. Don't expect any social services, expect cuts. You have too much now. There is a moral hazard if we let you keep what you have. We billionaires need the fruit of your labors for our fat selves, so we can live a life of comfort, luxury and ease. Don't asks questions. Don't assemble and protest or we will shoot you down. Oh, look say, the Great Pirate class we have some weak neighbors like Canada, Mexico, Panama, Demark/Greenland and Ukraine. Let's go pull-off some robberies of their stuff. We will tell the sheeple it is they, the victims we take down who have robbed us. We will claim self-defense. Sound familiar. Don't rapists always blame their victims? We will need troops from the masses. Cannon fodder for the meat grinders. No more contraceptives. No more abortions. Ladies make your babies! Get them ready. Get the preachers ready with their opiates of mind to help gull the masses so the sheeple know that this is God's will and that God is on our side not the victims we plan to rob. After all God needs us to do his killing, right? And don't forget, God needs money. God always needs money--your money. The game never changes, Hermann Goring was absolutely right, you can always bring the people along to do your will as a rubber Baron leader. You make them afraid, very afraid. You tell them they are being attacked! When fear kicks in rational thinking Flys out. That's our inner depravity, a lizard's response to fear hidden deep in our primordial amighdals. For you religious folk out there, the Bible commands "fear not" at least 365 times it has been said. It's enough times for each day of the week to guide on. Human nature is a constant with all its bad things and good things mixed into one human being. Here's the test in the morning, the test is how to overcome the bad things with the good things about us. DON'T GIVE IN TO FEARSOME BULLSHIT FROM FELONS RAPISTS, PRIRATES AND ELMER GANTRY PREACHERS DOLING OUT FALSE GOSPELS AS AN OPIATE FOR THE MASSES!!! Just because some orange morons is a billionaire, by hook or by crook doesn't make him any better than you. Do your own thinking---critical thinking!
