Womens Conference runs into rough seas of their own making

[Hassin Bin Sober]

353. I guess it's ok to take away agency of women of color when they do something you disagree with.

I don't have a problem with people disagreeing with the Sanders choice.

But when you say the organizers picked Sanders because they needed a white man "to tell them what to do" you take away their agency.

For instance, if someone had a problem with Hillary's choice of Kaine as VP and framed it as they had a problem with his pro-life leanings that would be a legitimate argument. But if the argument became "Hillary picked Kaine because she needs a man to tell her what to do and we all know he will be running the show" there would be a collective grand mal conniption on DU -- and rightfully so.

But no, since a certain Senator is involved all bets are off. They need a man, they need a white man, they need a man to tell them what to do. They are Putin stooges.

Look at some of the arguments and accusations. Some of them are pretty disgusting.

Once again:

When you lash out at WOC leaders, saying we have a man as our headliner/leader, you erase our work. You erase Rep Waters' work. LISTEN TO US. To the folks yelling at @womensmarch & directly at me: Why does your version of advocating for women's rights = bashing Black women leaders?"
