ETA: Also this, omg:

Play the ‘woman card’ and reap these ‘rewards’!

Hillary's response: “If fighting for women’s health care, and paid family leave, and equal pay is ‘playing the woman’s card,’ then deal me in.” (x)

Right?!?!

Besides, as someone else pointed out... If a person wants to go into the ladies' and assault someone, that's perfectly possible. It's not like the doors are locked.

WHY ARE PEOPLE SO STUPID???

[yourlibrarian]

Well said. It's particularly nauseating how men use women as an excuse to pass off their own homophobia as something legitimate.

[elisi]

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

That! Totally.

[elisi]

Your icon sums it up perfectly.

I know there are no upper limits to Trump's idiocy, but the fact that this idiot actually said that about the woman card is just...It's especially stupid that he talked about how unpopular Hilary is with women, which might be true to a certain extent, but he is far more unpopular. That he actually thinks he'll win the votes of women, especially with comments like that, is astounding!

Considering the things he's said so far, this one was pretty tame...

Well, hopefully he'll learn.

Well, hopefully he'll learn.

Hopefully. I'm still at the stage of being horrified/confused about how we got to having to even worry about this.

Actually, I doubt he'll ever learn anything. 'Be defeated' is probably a better way for that sentence to end.

[geekslave.livejournal.com]

This is true. A guy with an ego like that will never learn. Definitely got to hope he'll be defeated.

If not, at least the doomsday prophets will be happy...

Ha!

So much this. Women and girls have way more to fear from cisgender straight dudes than from any trans person.

Also, the #womancard hash tag on Twitter is pretty hilarious.

But cis men are the strong defenders that any poor, weak woman needs...

Also, the #womancard hash tag on Twitter is pretty hilarious.
I'm not on Twitter, but I shall have to check that out. Thank you. :)

[double_dutchess]

Both are great, but I particularly loved the "woman card" article.

[elisi]

You can even buy an official card now! :)

[double_dutchess]

What a brilliant move! Go, Hillary!!

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

oh my god...I just...Why is middle America full of so much hate???????

[elisi]

Try the Andrew Sullivan article in my most recent post... :(

[ragnarok-08.livejournal.com]

I know, right?!

[elisi]

Indeed.

When will Trump fall into a meat grinder?

[elisi]

Meat grinders are very rare. Guns, however, aren't...

[darklight90.livejournal.com]

I've always found American politics ludicrous, but my God, these elections are hinging on something akin to South Park. No, scratch that, I think it's transcended onto a whole other plane of absurdness.

[elisi]

It's incredible. Not that our own politics are anything to write home about, but it's not in this league...

[sea_thoughts]

(warning - swearing from the start)

[elisi]

!!!!!!!

I love it! Thank you. :D

[sea_thoughts]

It's so good. You're welcome. XD
