It is pathetic. I lost my damn legs as a single father in my mid 30s. I was worried I would no longer be able to successfully date at all. I dated just fine and eventually met my wife. Turns out that treating women as fully independent human people worthy of the same respect I wanted goes a long way. If you're an alt right chud who can't get laid, it's not your looks. Take it from a half man; It's who you are and how you see women.

Of all the women I know who date men I can’t think of a single one I would enjoy spending time with that would prefer dating a misogynist over an amputee single father. And that includes hikers and women who don’t want kids. Hell I’m pretty sure some friends of mine would be impressed by a guy managing to raise a kid without legs or a partner.

Unfortunately 46% of women voted Trump. So I guess they like this?

My mom was one of those women who voted for Trump. And you know what? She's a moron. She literally doesn't pay any attention to politics and just votes for whoever my dad votes for. My dad votes for whoever is running republican. Ugh.

The thing is, my mom had a septic miscarriage between me and older sibling. She had a dnc to remove to the rotting fetus because she was going to die. One of the last conversations we had I tried to explain to her that she'd be dead today if the laws in red states were in place back then. She ignored me. Literally just stopped talking and ended the conversation.

My mom is so stupid she's a fucking hazard.

I'm estranged from my family, have been for years. But I'd like to guess a good chunk of the women who voted for trump are like my mom. Braindead. The other chunk actively like trump and are openly nazis. The brain dead ones are too stupid to notice they're wearing nazi uniforms.

But I guess that's an accurate description of people who voted for trump in general. Stupidity doesn't care what gender you are, it still makes you dumb as fuck.

I know a few hardcore Christian women who voted for Trump. Anti-choice is a hell of a drug.

Unfortunately 46% of women voted Trump.

58% of white women specifically, although Trump improved almost across the board from his 2020 performance.

I wouldn't be fooled by percentages, though. A huge part of this shift was Dem turnout degradation. She saw a historic sag in turnout from Biden peak.

It's not that women or Latino men or GenX or whatever preferenced Trump so much as the younger voters gave up on a Dem party that had given up on them.

That shows how abuse makes you support the abuser. Like a violent relationship.

Everyone is retarded and the capital class owns all the large media outlets and the capital class are the major political donors and the capital class likes Republicans because they can make more money when they are in charge. This election was an uphill battle to begin with. Dunking on women is not going to be productive.

Preaching to the choir. The people who need to see this never will.

It's easy to laugh at the right-wingers, but the truth is that this is the way power is measured by the patriarchy - control over other people's bodies.

It doesn't matter if this power is obtained through the use of laws, money or physical violence (it's usually a combination of all three) - it's the power that matters, and the patriarchy doesn't care how it makes you look to the people you have that power over.

Friendly reminder women in certain muslim countries cant live on their own, they need a "guardian" (MALE OWNER) 😂..

But responding with ridicule is weak, too. That shit needs direct force. If someone tries to apply that to you, you apply it right back, with a gun.
