It's gone unchallenged.
I was looking for their reaction to the Cannon rebuttal and saw a post stating that (their words, not mine!) educated liberal women are the biggest threat to democracy. Ok so I kept reading and some fool who has some advanced degrees from somewhere solid, who's been paid to write in substantial newspapers, wrote a hit piece against women. He cherry picked some really stupid meaningless data to "prove" that women don't understand the world as well as men. (Ok, great, guess you're not getting any, huh?)
But it went on to say in many ways that Biden's relying on the women's vote. Pre-19th amendment, no liberals would have been president...
I know that's what these neanderthals believe. I just haven't seen them spell it out so directly before. It went unchallenged, of course.
This is going to get really, really ugly. The norm for not insulting women just because of their gender is burning down.
I always knew right wing extremists wanted half the population subservient. I just thought we were decades beyond seeing in clearly in print.

(50,554 posts)The only part of the Constitution they actually like is the Second Amendment, but they want that to be absolute so you can legally own howitzers.
And on that I have a slightly hard time disagreeing with
we could solve the problem of the Republican Party pretty easily with a couple hundred of them.

(66,316 posts)They are facing a sledgehammering in November for taking away a woman's rights. And they want to compound that staggeringly idiotic mistake by doing it again?
This is why I don't like stupid people, man. I don't like them.

(100,063 posts)But my MAGA neighbors who drone on about it only because they heard about it on Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity don't.
When the kids across the street told us that the local school board banned To Kill A Mockingbird in 9th grade English because of CRT concerns, I instantly knew where that bullshit was coming from, and my face turned visibly red. Fuck Fox News.

(53,764 posts)what can be posted online. Print journalism has governing standards it lives by as it's part of the profession in pursue the 5 Ws... verify sources, seek the truth, etc to avoid libel litigation.
That doesn't exist online for the most part. Oh, for sure the sites of the major news organizations which grew out of print journalism are sound and don't spew misinformation and disinformation but there are millions of sites that do.

This isn't new for them.

(1,993 posts)They're too emotional--raging hormones all times of the month makes them irrational. And only women should legally own guns--again, male hormones, out of control. There's data somewhere to back all this up, by this person who got a degree from this place...
