It may be a lazy argument but is it wrong? Will America ever elect a female President? Both times they had that choice they went for Trump instead.sultan2075 wrote: ↑Today, 00:28There are many, many reasons for someone to vote against Harris other than misogyny; that's a lazy argument.Incoming! wrote: ↑Yesterday, 18:37 Some thoughts :
Misogyny still alive and well (look at early stats)
We are still fighting the US Civil War
Democrats still a mess
9 of 10 states voted down abortion ban
One country lived under the rule of a narcissist fascist for 13 years. We can handle another 4
There won’t be a January 6 uprising
Glad I saw TSOM play in US maybe for last time
Kansas City Chiefs American football ball team won in over time last night. They are now 8-0
Let’s all pray for the US Joint Chiefs to once again have a back up plan if Trump moves his fingers to initiate nuclear use
Politics? Nah

Of course America will elect a female president. But she won’t be elected because she’s female.ribbons69 wrote: ↑Today, 03:47It may be a lazy argument but is it wrong?

Again, this is a lazy argument. There are actual reasons people vote for and against candidates. “It’s sexism” or “it’s racism” are ways people avoid confronting or addressing those reasons. That’s how the American pundit class got blindsided by this. That’s how most of my colleagues in political science got blindsided too.

The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.
