Just LOL if you look at the events of human history and think for one second that everything terrible that's ever happened wasn't caused by emotional breakdowns by men in power.

The conservative view of Trump is an alpha male astounds me when he is really the textbook definition of a messy bitch who lives for drama.

A few have been conditioned to actually see themselves as inferior while others think they'll be 'one of the good ones' and be an exception to the rule. I'm guessing Kent State girl is the latter.

Phyllis Schlafly was another like that going around giving big lectures on how women should be at home cooking for their husband.

I keep seeing ads for a new tv miniseries about her, no idea if it’s any good.

Also her son was the guy behind conservapedia.

Every woman who advocates against female suffrage should start with themselves and see if it catches on. That means Gun Poop Girl and Ann Coulter, too.

Yeah, being a grifter makes sense to me at least, its human to be selfish even in the extreme and as long as youre not being thrown under the bus (yet).

Is it just like a sort of macro Stockholm syndrome or battered wife syndrome that has you agreeing with your abuser?

It just makes me kind of sad that your brain can just break in such a way to believe this stuff.

They don’t care, they are empowered by their positions within the patriarchy and attain their goals by disempowering people that fight against it. They don’t need to vote to have their worldview enacted.

There were whole women's societies against women's suffrage before that passed, it was wild.

It's just like that Megyn Kelly thing where the lead is Apolitical while Acting so they end up trying to make the shithead they're playing look shades-of-grey and understandable.

In particular, Mrs America is painfully white and tries to act like she only courted racists because of strategy, not that she was racist. It also ignores any facet of "She's working 'against her own interests' because she's trying to keep the privilege she has as a WHITE woman."

"I want to break your heart💔 and give you mine🫀"




I saw #confederate trending on twitter, and found that some fringe republican group blocked the streets of the capital in Lansing with their cars/trucks. They're of course protesting the "tyranny" of the stay home stay safe order, with a lot of them waving confederate flags with their MAGA banners.
Oh and their bullshit parade blocked an ambulance from getting to the only level1 trauma hospital in the area :thumbsup:

I remember someone here explaining the historical context of "molon labe" and how it i think was making fun of a group of warhawks? Does anyone know that info offhand? Googling Molon labe original meaning gets you some sites that i hope the FBI keeps tabs on.

Not sure how it developed from there, but the idea was that the Persian envoy asked Leonidas (the Sparta guy) to lay down their weapons and basically surrender. Leonidas replied "Come and get them" (μολών λαβέ, in Greek)

The best part about molon labe is that every time it shows up in a battle the people saying it lose hard. Thermopylae didn’t do much to stop the Persians despite the popular myth that it was some heroic game changing moment.

So if the person in that ambulance died as a result of being delayed by the fuckstick parade, they can all be charged with negligent manslaughter or something, yeah?

The answer they'd give is absolutely that a woman would be worse. We're already getting that with Socialism as people post pictures of bare supermarket shelves saying that that's the work of Socialism.

I’m surprisingly okay with that.

Glenn Beck has also volunteered as tribute, though he’s not actually 60 yet so it was kind of a hollow offer.
