37. Still not clear on what and who you are talking about

when people (#1) promote a sexism argument against a candidate

against a candidate they don't support, but reject a sexism argument(#2) , by the same author, against a different candidate, whom they do support...

... it makes me think they (#3) don't really care about the sexism.

OK:

#1 - Who is the person you are talking about? Melman? Melman isn't even on this thread. Please clarify.

#2 - Can you provide a link to where person #1 "rejected a sexism argument by the same author"

#3 - Is this the same person as #1?

Is that clearer?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
