I'm not even sure what your point is. Yeah I'd rather sleep with a dakimakura of my waifu Renge-chan than with some random 3D slut but that doesn't mean I'm desperate, it's the opposite, it implies that I have standards.
I wouldn't take those odds unless the DNC decides in it's infinite wisdom to rig another primary in favor of someone like say, I dunno, Chelsea Clinton. Then definitely 4 more years.
This will sound like bullshit, but while I didn't vote for Trump, I actually thought he had a better than even chance of getting in. My only evidence to that fact was that my family is from Michigan and all pretty much either active or retired UAW.
Not a single one of them was willing to publicly admit they were voting for Clinton.
So like, yeah I wasn't terribly surprised. Definitely not as surprised as the media seemed to be.
Fox News and Republicans in general have always found a way to disappoint in the past (see: Bush jr getting reelected, Trump getting elected), so I really don't doubt it, as absurd as it seems.
They're protesting a Republican president, because the women's march is a democratic party march.
Every single one of their justification for protesting ( ending violence, abortion, LGBTQQIP2SAA(to be continued), "rights"(read 'give moooooore money'' for worker, blacks, crippled, aliens. ANd my favorite, 'Environnmental justice', whatever that means ) are major cleaving points between Dems and Reps. But as always, Dems think they can talk in the name of everyone, especially every woman.
They are protesting systemic mistreatment, not the least of which is spurred by Donald Trump and his unfiltered disrespect for women.

You are a young, culturally Jewish father, and are trying to figure out how best to raise your son and daughter, and possibly future children with your wife. You are young enough to be trendy but have consumed a bit too much of the Kool-Aid of Portland politics to have a well-informed view of the larger problems in this country, but are beginning to realize that your kids will have to live in this world and you are less than comfortable with it. You seem like an otherwise well balanced person, caring husband, and involved father.
And you are a fucking idiot that argues politics on reddit.
Congratulations on using Snoopsnoo and obsessively reading through my comment history to try to prove a point to some fucking guy you don't respect on the internet.

Gahd Dayum Looked up and you weren't being hyperbolic.
Is that what feminism honors now?
Painting the actions of the event organizers who chose her as emblematic of an entire ideology - one that is already amorphous - is short-sighted. I call myself a feminist and no, I don't feel comfortable with her as a figurehead of feminism. But there are shit-tons of feminists who would be offended, and scream at me and lecture me on how wrong I am for simply having the audacity to call myself, a straight, white, left-wing-but-basic-in-their-eyes, man, a feminist because I don't fit into their narrow classification of what feminism should be. They're probably 22 though so fuck em. They'll learn to open their minds and stop being so puritanical some day. Believe me, I know, screamin' liberals are fuckin obnoxious. But when the alternative is a mean-spirited ideology that literally doesn't acknowledge that women have it harder than men, the choice is obvious to me.
Dude no. Maybe some of the young, extreme practitioners of feminism do this but every. single. one. of my friends, man or woman, if asked, would say that yes, they consider themselves a feminist. We are teva-wearing, subaru-driving, Northface-jacket wearing, IPA-drinking, clean cut, nice, hard-working, Seattleites.
They honor anti-semetic islamists. They honor rapists, and murderers. They cheer when men are killed.
Uhhhhh nope! I have a buncha hairy-legged butch lesbian friends and ZERO of them hate men and cheer men being killed. Feminism really isn't about hating men. Even people who I went to college with whom I didn't have close friendships with who were REALLY far left did not hate me simply for being a man. What they hate is men who think that feminism is about hating men rather than empowering women.
Genuinely asking, not trying to condescend - do you consider yourself a 'men's rights' person?
Of course we do. Actually I was going to say MRAs and feminists have a lot more in common than you think.
IIRC, MRAs take umbrage to much of the imagery of "masculinity" we were subjected to as young boys. I do too. This muscle-man bullshit has got to stop. It is poisoning young boys's minds and egos. I have a daughter and a son. We inherited a Batman shirt that had grey outlines depicting big biceps, pecs, and six-pack abs on it. I threw that out just as quickly as I did the princess shit that was given to my daughter. Am I correct in interpreting that this is a facet of Men's Rights?
I don't fuckin know man. I didn't organize the shit. I'm just some schmo. Seems like a questionable decision to me.
I'm not saying masculinity is bad. I'm saying shallow, body-based, unreasonable expectations of what constitutes masculinity is wrong. I love having my masculinity. I love the superior physical strength and spatial reasoning skills I've been endowed by evolution.
I'm appealing to all of you stupid idiots to vote Democrat in 2018. That is if you have the basic education enough to read a ballot, anyway. I understand the majority of you racist rednecks can't even read this post, though. But those who can, please pass my message on to the rest of your inbred family.
We Democrats are morally, culturally and intellectually superior to you in every way. I will qualify myself by noting that I have a Liberal Arts degree from a college, which you obviously have never been to, if you even know what one is. I also have a black friend. I have been told by severalprofessors that everything you hold dear is terrible. Therefore you, personally, are also terrible.
I don't know you, but I know that you're racist. I also know that you hate gay people and still get scared during lightning storms.
The religion which you hold closely, greatly believe in, and which brings you comfort--you are wrong because I'm smarter than you and I'm telling you so. It is one of the many reasons why you are stupid and I'm better than you.
You see, us Democrats want a system which helps everyone in the world. Our system is designed around love and kindness to everyone. If you don't agree, I hate you.
It's not too late to change. If you knew your history, which of course you don't, you'll remember a time in America when Indians were dragged away from their homes and forced to assimilate into white society. Well, we want to change that kind of behaviour (sorry for my spelling, as I'm not from your country) by making sure you go to college and have a small apartment in a big, busy coastal city, where you belong. That will help you rid yourselves of your backward, incorrect culture and way of thinking. We'll do everything we can to make sure you agree with us and say all the right things and not be brainwashed against thinking the same way we do.
All of you stupid, backward, redneck, racist, homophobic, uneducated yokels need to realize we're trying to build a classless society where we all get to live in harmony with each other, where we're all equal. If you only understood that you wouldn't be so much worse of a person than I am.
So please vote Democrat. Help me help you, you worthless motherfuckers.
