In reply to the discussion: a woman whose anger needs to be paid attention to [View all]FBaggins
(28,706 posts)Its one thing to feel betrayed by people who actually voted for the other candidate. Its an entirely different and illogical (though still emotionally understandable) thing to blame everyone in a group for what the overwhelming majority of that group did (as with white men)
But to blame everyone in a group (explicitly including those who voted the same way she did) for something almost half of that group opposed? Thats just not rational. (And there remains a huge split between married/single white women and those with/without college degrees - and those in her chat are likely to be almost exclusively educated single women)
She doesnt make me feel in the least bit uncomfortable (and my race/gender group voted against my preferences)
it makes me feel sorry for her.
The good news for her though is that it doesnt matter. Shes preaching to her own YouTube choir. Shes likely to make more money this way than with a more rational response.
