a lot of them are the alt-right mirror images of our tankie edgelord teens, and a lot of people there are broken, toxic people and their parasites who exploit and humiliate them for sociopathic fun
I literally cannot believe they actually allowed this to happen. Look, I don't know this for sure, but I've got a very strong hunch that not a SINGLE person in the room thought he was telling the truth. It's highly unlikely that Christine Ford would just start making up these random lies with no truth behind them, and they know that. They're probably thinking to themselves, "Hmm. He probably did do it. But hey, boys will be boys, and he was probably drunk, so it's ok. Not a reason to ruin his life or anything."
They don’t give a SHIT about us. And all you conservative women out there - fuck you for being a handmaiden and selling out other women.
I like the way she rolls immediately from whinging that The Patriarchy Doesn't Respect Women's Opinions to shitting all over the opinions of any woman who doesn't agree with her, with literally no self-awareness of any kind.
I'm also pretty sure that there are a lot of conservative women who aren't big fan of possible rapists in office. What are they supposed to do, disavow their entire ideology because of one maybe bad apple?
Daily reminder that the "bad apple" proverb goes like this
one bad apple spoils the whole bunch
People leave out the last part because it's convenient which ironically flips the entire meaning on the term "bad apple", making it into something benign.

Yeah, that's the whole point. People flip it because it's not always accurate. There are rapists on both sides and womyn respect0rz on both sides.
Remember that time in Harry Potter when the Haindmaid stood up to the Galactic Empire and Trump tweeted about it whilst we all clapped and Emily Ratajkowski shouted "DAS RITE"?

I’m so angry. So so so angry. Women are clearly just acceptable collateral damage, on both the right with their “grab em by the pussy” and on the left with the appropriation of the word “woman” itself and just expecting women to be the caretakers of all.

Fiscally, you maybe have an argument on some things. Socially they went hard left, going full blown sjw in less than 10 years. I’d say they more just stayed where they were at fiscally, with a few things shifting left (Medicare for all is the big one). That’s not the same as shifting right.
Fiscally it depends on if your time frame is the last 20 years or the last 50. 20, they haven’t changed, 50 they have. On social issues then yeah I agree
Have they pushed more right at all on anything in the last twenty years? Only real changes I think they’ve made have been adding single payer into their platform which is definitely a shift to the left
Kinda sucks that the lesson learned from the party's 80's malaise is "labor's broke, let's cozy up with big business and push identity politics as our main means of differentiating ourselves from Republicans".
I'd love to have a reasonable left wing party but despise both wings of the current intra-party civil war for varying reasons.
It was a legitimate criticism like 20 years ago, or during the Iraq War build-up. But at this point, it's just morons who refuse to recognize a change in circumstances
I am, too. I've been posting a lot about this today, but I honestly do not know wtf to do. Three weeks ago I almost attempted suicide because the current social/political climate is so triggering and re-traumatizing (macro and micro). While I am no longer in that space, and am in the process of getting appropriate mental health care, I am at a complete fucking loss as to how to move forward in my life. On the one hand, I am seething with uncontrollable rage at our so called elected officials who are so desperate to cling to power by any means necessary that they will trample on half the population and I want to burn everything to the ground (metaphorically, not literally, although I am sorely tempted to fedex boxes of dead rats and dog shit to every Yes voter in the Senate).
On the other hand, I am tired exhausted existentially spent. My husband (the first person to EVER say "I believe you and I'm sorry and I'm here" and the only one who can be counted on to do so consistently) has been suggesting we move off the grid and just give Western "Civilization" the middle finger. I have to say I'm sorely tempted, but it also feels selfish to do so. Then again, after the upbringing I've had (wherein after puberty my mother decided she was sick of fucking my father so she made me do it instead, among other things) any type of self-care at all feels selfish.
Fuck the Republicans. Fuck the South. Fuck the flyover states. Fuck a third of Maine. 2/3rds Nebraska. Fuck Alaska. Fuck the coal miners. Fuck the scared old people. Fuck 60% of white people. Fuck the non-voters. Fuck the electoral system that produces minority elected presidents. Fuck the NRA. Fuck the Federalist Society. Fuck the Heritage Foundation. Fuck Reagan's rotting corpse. Fuck Newt Gingrich who solidified this bull shit. Fuck Nixon for everything. Fuck Goldwater. Fuck Roger Ailes and Fox News. Fuck the rich assholes who fund all this. Fuck Evangelical Christians. Fuck pro-life Catholics. Fuck 3rd generation immigrants who vote for anti-immigration policies without a hint of irony. Fuck the Mormons. Fuck turtle man. Fuck his corrupt-ass wife. Fuck everyone who will be on the wrong side of history. Fuck the two illegitimate supreme court members now. Fuck the other 3 asshats on their too. Fuck Pence. Fuck the Kochs.
Vote with the intensity and anger one brings into war. Take every opportunity to make these assholes scared.
