this is literally the only reason besides her military career why the republicans like her. her voter democraphics from her 2020 run is almost all men voting for her. if you think about it it doesn't make much sense why republicans would like her but hate bernie. earlier on her platform was basically just a watered down bernie sanders platform. they called one a socialist traitor, and wanted the other to switch parties and be their presidential nominee lol.




"So what do we know about Gabbard’s base? For one thing, it’s overwhelmingly male —according to The Economist’s polling with YouGov, her support among men is in the mid-single digits, while her support among women is practically nonexistent.

This trend is evident in other recent polls as well. Last week’s Quinnipiac poll of Iowa found Gabbard at 5 percent among men and 1 percent among women, and Quinnipiac’s new survey of New Hampshire found her at 9 percent among men and 4 percent among women. A late October national poll from Suffolk University found her at 6 percent among men and 2 percent among women.

Her predominantly male support shows up in other ways, too. An analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics found that only 24 percent of Gabbard’s itemized contributions had come from female donors,[SUP]1[/SUP] the smallest percentage of any candidate in the race."

so when men don't vote for woman they are sexist and when they do vote for a woman they are also sexist, shit. they got us coming and going :D

i liked her when she was talking anti war stuff, now she is all about drones and certain "good" wars, fuck her.

when women try to be civil (and most are, compared to most men) & let everyone at the table express their view, they are perceived as "too soft for the job." when they stand up like a man for what they think is right, they suddenly become a "bitch" or "too pushy" or "aggressive"... 🙄

most of the outrage against what the far right is calling "CRT" is simply just teaching children the objective history and reality of the country they live in. slavery, genocide, morally questionable capitalism, colonialism, and whatnot is a part of US history. if a parent gets mad about teaching their child objective reality then oh well, facts over feelings lol.

damn i was right again;


A school board in Tennessee voted unanimously this month to ban “Maus,” a Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel about the Holocaust, from being taught in its classrooms because the book contains material that board members said was inappropriate for students.
According to minutes of its meeting, the 10-person board, in McMinn County, Tenn., voted on Jan. 10 to remove the book from the eighth-grade curriculum. Members of the board said the book, which portrays Jews as mice and Nazis as cats in recounting the author’s parents’ experience during the Holocaust, contained inappropriate curse words and a depiction of a naked character.
“There is some rough, objectionable language in this book,” said Lee Parkison, the director of schools for McMinn County, in eastern Tennessee, according to minutes of the meeting.
Art Spiegelman, the author of “Maus,” said he was baffled by the decision. “This is disturbing imagery,” he said in an interview on Thursday, which is Holocaust Remembrance Day. “But you know what? It’s disturbing history.”




On Thursday, Granbury ISD confirmed it has pulled 130 titles from school libraries in the district to be reviewed by a committee for inappropriate conduct.

The district began removing books from shelves earlier this month. According to a statement sent to WFAA from Granbury ISD, the board of trustees voted to amend district policy to allow for the removal of “materials because they are pervasively vulgar or based solely upon the educational suitability of the resource in question."

"State Rep. Matt Krause is the legislator who sent a list of 850 books to the Texas Education Agency to be removed from school libraries. A vast number of books on the list are about racism, the LGBTQ+ community and gender identity. Gov. Greg Abbott has also backed this effort, writing multiple letters to state education groups and leaders urging them to "protect" students from content he referred to as "pornographic"."




fascists concern trolling about vulgarity in books is just an excuse to try and ban stuff they don't like

TN has always been at the forefront of idiocy RE what is taught in schools. (see also - the Scopes Trial) parents are FAR more concerned that their children not be exposed to the mistakes made by earlier generations, thereby insuring those mistakes will be repeated. god forbid that parents/grandparents etc are exposed as the racist asshats that they were/are...they would burn bibles if it made them look bad. which it does, if you actually read it.

The one good thing about these book bans is the books that are getting banned are flying off the shelves in record numbers as sales are driven up by folks wanting to know what the kerfuffle is all about.
