WTF IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE!

[sheshe2]

Mostly men some women, Republicans, support violence against women.

Way past time to break the chain.

Time for the fools and tools in our house and senate to understand a woman is far more worthy of their support than guns. Guns kill people, women bear our children, our future.

Dance to stop the screams.

We are beautiful, beautiful creatures.

1. I can't with these people anymore, she

Who would vote against a violence against women act? It's like they are against anything that is decent.

[sheshe2]

6. They don't know decency, mcar.

They all hate women. They have made that PERFECTLY CLEAR.

They don't even care about the 1/2 million plus that have died in the pandemic. Believe them when they tell you who they are.

[leftieNanner]

53. I just called my toxic congress critter

He voted no. He also voted against certifying the election. Brand new Representative.

I gave him a very BIG PIECE OF MY MIND!!

My husband heard me. His response? Deaf ears, but you have to do it.

[sheshe2]

57. Good for you.

I am furious.

[lagomorph777]

42. They voted in favor of violence against women.

Way to win over half of the electorate, boys.

[calimary]

58. And that's exactly how we MUST message this.

Put them on severe double-secret-probation absolute-torch-'n'-twang defense.

MAKE 'EM have to explain it and justify it and try to talk themselves out of trouble.

And then do it AGAIN.

And AGAIN.

And remind-Remind-REMIND: that Republicans don't want to help you. Especially if you're a woman.

They certainly proved it here! Made it abundantly clear!

And if you can, help one of their opponents with his or her campaign! Best thing we can do is get RID of these assholes. Take their power away. And replace them with lightyears-better Democratic candidates.

2. Shameful. I'd bet real money that they're probably all white men.

"Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them." When is this shit ever going to change?

[bdamomma]

15. just found this info

the passing of VAWA, the final votes

https://clerk.house.gov/Votes/202186

Cheney voted Nay, also losers Boebert and Greene, they like the idea of violence against women.

[sheshe2]

22. F them!

Thanks for the info, sad as it makes me.

[bdamomma]

24. Yes indeed

I looked at the yeas and nays, this was a party line vote. The GOP are just vile cretins.

[FoxNewsSucks]

51. Cheney voted no.

People need to remember that when rushing to give her praise and "maybe she's not so bad" for things like impeachment vote. She is a vile rancid evil snake who is probably worse than her evil father.

[rickyhall]

5. Put women in charge of guns.

[soothsayer]

7. Perfect

Except that crazy woman in congress

[MyOwnPeace]

12. OH!!!!!!!

I had to clean my monitor after THAT one!

And YES, you are correct!

[sheshe2]

8. +++

[Cetacea]

50. Yes! We need women to control the patriarchy!

[George McGovern]

59. I Agree!

You are so right Cetacea. Old white men have been screwing things up for far too long.

[Cetacea]

60. Indeed!

But I haven't much hopium left for humanity as a species.

[dianaredwing]

54. Right on, Sister

[cilla4progress]

4. Brought me to

tears.

Is that the great Debbie Allen in front in the cool red pants?

[sheshe2]

9. Yes.

It has brought me to tears and gives me hope. I watch it often.

Not sure, I think it is Debbie.

[cilla4progress]

11. Wanted so badly to share on my Insta,

but couldn't figure out how. Then I saw it was sponsored by Zuckerberg, and from 2013.

Still love it, though. 😍

[KY_EnviroGuy]

10. Tears here, too. From the YouTube description.....

Produced by Eve Ensler and V-Day, directed by Tony Stroebel, written and produced by Tena Clark with music by Tena Clark and Tim Heintz, and featuring dancer and choreographer Debbie Allen.

"Break the Chain" aims to raise awareness around the world about V-Day's fastest escalating global campaign to date, ONE BILLION RISING. The ONE BILLION RISING campaign began as a call to action based on the staggering statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. With the world population at 7 billion, this adds up to more than ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS. On 14 February 2013, V-Day's 15th anniversary, activists, writers, thinkers, celebrities and women and men across the world will come together to express their outrage, strike, dance, and RISE in defiance of the injustices women suffer, demanding an end at last to violence against women.

16. Lost In Translation...

...are my trans sisters. The hate against us is even more furious. "Men" who want to be "Women" is unthinkable, so when they catch us in "The Big Lie" or "The Big Reveal" - even though we're just trying to find a place in the world (ya know, intangible things like acceptance, trust, life, liberty justice, happiness, even love). We are part of 1 Billion Rising too, and know what's at stake. Please throw some weight behind supporting the Equality Act. What wonderful armor it will be.

[sheshe2]

26. Tears.

Then there is this...hope.

13. Nice. Thanks.

I have a secret about this - that I bet many others of all genders and identities here do, too, forged in shame and maintained to protect someone else.

❤

[mezame]

18. With You

on this. I've lived with shameful lies (mostly to myself) for survival's sake. Self-acceptance and declarations are one thing, but consequences are very real. There were a lot less of us then brave enough to shine a light. But with all the bright lights beginning to shine now, the dangers faced are no less a threat.

[cilla4progress]

21. ...

[sheshe2]

27. Yep.

[sarcasmo]

14. Racists who don't give A/F.

[lunatica]

17. They believe violence is the answer to

anything that bothers them. Women are the cause of their problems so killing a few is just simply necessary. Who cares anyway?

[joetheman]

19. Oh, the voting come 2022 is going to be epic!

[BigmanPigman]

20. They HATE. That is all they can contribute to society.

They love to hate. Their social media hates, their neighbors hate, their politicians hate, their family and coworkers hate, their news channels, even their religious leaders often hate. Hate hate hate. And they hate indiscriminately...women, politics, animals, minorities, laws, other religions, other countries, our country, etc. It doesn't matter. Their favorite verb is to hate.

[Duppers]

45. Exactly! Nailed 'em.

👍

[Evolve Dammit]

46. Nailed it. Anything decent must be desecrated or destroyed. Wealth and control. All that matters

[RKP5637]

23. There are demented sadistic individuals in congress that absolutely do not belong there, voted in

by demented people. It's epidemic in the US.

[bdamomma]

25. I wish we could

gather them all up and send them to their own sewer country. They deserve it.

[BobTheSubgenius]

28. This is at least the third thread on this topic I've seen today.

I've commented on all of them, and my comment hasn't changed, because my take on it hasn't changed. I'm just gobsmacked that this is apparently OK with Republican women, at least judging by the lack of reaction.

What the hell is wrong with them? I KNOW what's wrong with the 172, but being ostensibly part of the same organization and not storming the ramparts of the Republican lawmakers that would perpetrate this?

I won't go so far as to say they deserve the violence, because no women deserve that. But godammit, there should be some kind of wake-up call.

[MFM008]

29. they are such predictably

horrible people.......

[Ferrets are Cool]

30. Sociopaths.

[iluvtennis]

31. Thanks for this post and the wonderful uplifting video. nt

[sheshe2]

32. I needed it.

Yes, uplifting.

I am looking for two others I posted in the past. Will post when I do.

Thanks, iluvtennis.

[El Shaman]

33. Yet, ------yet,

most of this brave old boies live with they mom's!!!

Go figure Ms. Sheshe !!?

[niyad]

34. Thank you so very much for posting this video. I watch the different performances from all

over the world. Several of my favourites are the flash mob in SF, the one from Bhutan where the whole village is involved, and there is a message from the Queen of Bhutan, and the European Parliament with their umbrellas. They give me hope.

Sadly, I was not in the least surprised by the vote, which was why I specifically mentioned it in my post on male violence against women. The woman-haters in Congress do not even try to pretend. The fact that women can do something that they cannot, the womb-envy, truly twists them up. They think that the ability to destroy life makes them superior.

May they all rot, including the self-loathing women.

[Politicub]

35. They are deplorable.

Everything matters. HR. 1 must be signed into law. 172 — one-hundred seventy-two — GOP reps voted against violence against women. The 172 people do not represent the gerrymandered citizens in their districts.

HR. 1 takes on gerrymandering and supports apportioning representatives to citizens equitably. Democracy is at stake.

On edit: loved the video! Made me hopeful.

[smirkymonkey]

36. They are afraid of our power.

Beautiful video!

[sheshe2]

37. One of my favorites.

I have watched it many times.

[Scrivener7]

39. I never saw it before! Made me a little teary!

That's a keeper.

PS: I have a new name!

[sheshe2]

40. Oh my god!

I didn’t know. I have to keep you all straight.

Glad you liked the video, Scrivener7.

[Scrivener7]

41. I just changed it. I am going to keep a notice on my posts for a while after the 30 days.

[sheshe2]

44. Good idea.

❤️

[spanone]

43. republicons are aliens.

[ampm]

47. Nevada checking in

I was a part of that and it's still a powerful part of me. We danced and it was liberating too because we are all of this and so much more. Abuse for me was mental and breaking that is still ongoing but this helped me see how? Dancing and singing bring out my joyful spirit.

[sheshe2]

49. Wonderful that you were a part of it, ampm.

Uplifting to break the chain.

[FoxNewsSucks]

52. Republicons are feeling like they

are at the point where they no longer have to hide who and what they are. They no longer have to pretend to give a damn about women or voting rights.

The implications of their brazenness scares the shit out of me. If HR1 is sidelined again, I think they know that there will be no stopping them in 2022 or after.

[lillypaddle]

55. What a beautiful and heart wrenching vido

I sent it to my DIL to watch and discuss with my soon to be 9 yo granddaughter.

Thank you for posting.

[Joinfortmill]

56. Wow glad none of them is my husband, son, or father.
