Thank you! That is why supposed religious-types are sticking with him so hard. It’s not the God-stuff, it’s the racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and authoritarianism they like.

If you believe the basic tenants of feminism like, equal pay, access to healthcare, bodily autonomy and reductions in sexual violence are “very progressive policy” then you probably aren’ta feminist to start with.

As a former communications aide to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) and former senator Jim DeMint (R-S.C.)...

You forgot about raping the environment for profit. That’s one of there big ones.

I’m glad she’s waking up to this. It’s a shame that it took a direct threat to her own well being to do it, and not, you know, the other racist, classist and religious rhetoric of the party but good for you for finally noticing!

I thought the effectiveness of a threat relied on people wanting to avoid that particular outcome.

True, everyone is entitled to their opinion, just as everyone is entitled to their opinion about other people’s opinions.

How about nobody needs yet another movie about a white woman who is a socialite with a tragic ending?

Someone who doesn’t like her doesn’t want to see her in a/this film. Seems pretty reasonable.

So a tragically glamorous 1920s Manic Pixie Dream Girl?

Yep.

I have to go my notifications page to see them. I’ve done it so often I just have to start typing “kin” in the navigation bar and the link comes up.
