2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Sen. Warren Exposing Liberal Sexism [View all]seabeyond
(110,159 posts)44. Thank you for the lecture on sexism and what you allow is, and is not sexism.
There is all kinds of sexism in this world, which brings us the hard work of challenging the sexism in our world today.
You changed the argument to overt sexism. I addressed that issue. Now you are bring us back to the conversation about less overt sexism, and you insist that is NOT sexism. Bully for you. I disagree. And I know I have way more fact, academia, studies that will support my position and all you have is words thrown at us.

Merkely endorsed Bernie....Elizabeth Warren never did. That is the difference. Not sexism.

You're wrong. Merkely abandoned Sanders, which should be worse, but Warren gets slammed. Sexism.

Making an endorsement would have been taking part in the 'rigged' system. She let the voters decide.
