“It’s called precedent,” the Senate Judiciary Committee chair said of violating the same rule that Republicans ignored to move forward with judicial nominees.
They understand. They just know if they say the shitty thing, it will give their bubba voters a misogyny hardon, which translates directly to votes.
I don’t get it: are they saying that their party doesn’t let women speak and now Democrats are acting like them? It seems extremely backwards.
The question is mostly rhetorical, I understand exactly what’s happening, I just can’t help but jackie_chan_face.jpg
They are saying, “women dumb, lololol!” They’re literally just petty children in adult bodies. There is no deeper point.
This. It’s all a giant, “Nuh-uh, you!”
They create a specious argument, present it as a straw man of “what democrats want,” and then ridicule it as if they didn’t make the whole thing up themselves.
It’s dumb as shit, but it’s all on purpose. These people are ivy League lawyers who took speech and debate. They know what a fallacy is, they just choose to use it for its effectiveness in mass psychology rather than actually governing or leading.
It’s not about that. It’s about stuff like Clearance Thomas does. He used to be a black panther fighting for black rights(was still a misogynist creep). Then he eventually switched sides, prob for money and power, but claimed the Dems were just as racists as Republicans, but Republicans said it to your face and Dems hid behind a facade.
The right continously parrots this narrative (which definitely has a kernel of truth especially with NIMBYs) in an effort to either discourage voter participation or to get lucky and get Pick Mes like Thomas and Candence Owen’s.
Same reason idiots claim Trump says it like it is; they think everyone really is as racist and sexist as themselves, but that Dems are just virtue signaling while their side is “honest.” They don’t want to change, learn, or hide, they just want their shitty beliefs to be mainstream again.
