The Right Is Furious With Liberal White Women


To defend such treatment of activists — many of them women — right-wingers need to cast them as enemies of the state.

They have always hated women of all colors. But it wasn’t as pronounced with white women because they are necessary breeders. Now even that rail is down.

That is becoming more difficult, as the trend is for women to outnumber men in universities. That trend is creating an increasing number of men who have trouble finding partners, which is not a good thing for society.

,snip-"It’s true that, once again, a majority of white women (51%) voted for Donald Trump.

It’s also true that white women voted for Trump by a smaller margin than they did in 2020. While still leaning Republican, white women supported Trump by 4 points in 2024 (51% to 47%), compared to an 8-point margin in 2020 (53% to 45%).

snip-"One-in-ten Black women and 21% of Black men voted for Trump in the most recent election."


A whole LOT of white woman are responsible for the apricothellbeast in office.

It is very likely that some white liberal, especially high net worth women, who are ostensibly financially & socially 'safer' married to & raising republican oriented individuals voted for their pocketbook, not for principles.

Reading, writing, thunking, & demanding fair treatment for all, including the planet that sustains life, & all our planetary neighbors = "elitists."

And then send them to any meeting held by these fascists. Let these idiots who think they are tough find out what tough is.

There is a lot of anger out there about what this regime is getting away with, so far anyway.
Sorry ..not fully up yet either.

I'm furious with them. I think trump's thugs should get the F out of Minneapolis. They are causing more trouble, more injuries and more death than the protesters ever did.

They need to be scared and we need to keep them on the back foot whenever, wherever and for as long as possible.

They are incapable of seeing women as fully capable and autonomous adults, deserving of full rights. It’s a pathology.
