In reply to the discussion: New TLP ad for Kamala Harris - voiceover by Sam Elliot [View all]soldierant
(9,372 posts)64. Of course it is.
That was what really caused Hillary Clinton's loss. Misogyny is the world's oldest and strongest manifestation of othering.
Al least gender is a thing which exists (all of them). Racism is about somethingt that is totally made up. With a small nod to bits of Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA, we are all the same race - homo sapiens.
And one can't really fight it by talking about it. People don't believe they are misogynists, and the more evidence that they are, the more they dig in their heels. I think "If it'd the woman thing, it's time to get over it" may just be the best possible way to approach it.

Magats have weird assumptions about masculinity/femininity and that leads to some stupid conclusions. nt

I think this may only be an online ad, but I know TLP has run ads on TV before. nt
