Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yeah, the truth certainly doesn't make women safer.
You really should talk to other white women about that.
which truth is that, that no one hates women like other women?
look at the current climate, i see a lot of woman-hating from all sides, including supposed allies on the left looking for a scapegoat. the oversimplified victim-blaming of dumping our president-elect at the feet of women (again) demonstrates very little understanding of gendered power dynamics and very little effort to build coalition.
to this i would add the threads blaming racial and ethnic minorities, the poor, and the poorly educated.
do you want less suffering in the world, or are you no better than the right in looking for someone to blame, and someone whose suffering you can enjoy because, "they asked for it, they voted for it, they deserve it?"
The truth is 53 percent of white women including 10 percent increase of young white women voted for the behavior. Behavior mind you were say on full force since 2016 and white women voted for again.
As for me, when I being a minority, when I voted for Harris, knowing full well who Trump and company, was looking to my back, didn't expect 53 percent of white women of stabbing me and other women in the back. And seeing as white women voted for more suffering so I'm going to enjoy the schadenfreude because I'm sure as hell tired of trying to bail the country out from the stupidity of Americans in general. If that makes me as bad as the right, I'm okay with that, at least I voted to not enable this behavior, unlike 53 percent of white women who literally voted for this behavior.
White women need to get there shit in order so fix your own shit before you get all huffy with everyone else who are tired of trying to save you from yourselves.
Again, you should talk to other white women about that.
