  • but it’s not a great triumph of the left wing. It’s a bare minimum.

    You’re shifting goalposts. You said “Yeah. I respect the Republicans for actually getting shit done, as evil as their goals are.” and then claimed democrats don’t get anything done.

    Also here are some things the Democrats did; and I say this as a Canadian:

    • Signing the 19th Amendment into law (for non Americans, this gave women the ability to vote)

    • Social Security

    • Medicaid

    • National Industrial Recovery Act (8 hour work day, min wage, right to collective bargaining, paid overtime)

    • Unemployment Benefits

    • Civil Rights Act

    • Voting Rights Act

    • Fair Labor Standards Act (this was the end of Child Labour)

    • F.E.M.A.

    • Literally creating the Departments of Education, and Energy

    • Family and Medical Leave Act

    • National Voter Registration Act

    And those are just the larger ones I thought of offhand, I’m sure there are more. Yet I’m also pretty sure most americans would agree that things like women voting, social security, medicaid, workers rights, civil rights, voting rights, ending child labour, etc, are pretty important things that were passed into law.

    I guess it’s true what they say, being good is something anyone can do, but being evil requires actually being smart and driven.

    Which sociopath told you this? I’ve never heard that saying in my entire life.

    And they’ll just downvote anything you say, because you’re the bad guy now, regardless of what you’re talking about.

    I’m just curious what it must be like to be so fragile. It’s like any time they aren’t being directly supported they fall apart and lash out at everyone around them. The hardest part is watching women calmly wait out the guys’ tantrum, then try to carefully explain to him (and in a way that makes him Feel Like A Man still, ever holding his hand emotionally) what is happening and they will still freak out.

    It really is just embarrassing.

    There was a wave of, likely from reddit, ‘mens rights’ users who came over and this happens all of the time now. Any time a woman mentions issues with a man, it’s “YEAH BUT WHAT ABOUT” as if the things can’t both exist.

    I mean look what they’re upvoting: ‘I saw a feminist say she doesn’t care about guys, I super swear guys!’

    It’s just fucking embarrassing how childish they are. Not even childish, because children can learn empathy. It’s as if they quite literally have zero empathy, and can only engage in sympathy with someone who is somehow similar to them. Like should I just post this comic here, the one we all read, as a reply to these people?

    Irony is completely lost upon them.

    Man just going for irony right away, eh?

    Whenever I do see the opposite and when the guy interjects all that’s said is “there’s a time and a place to talk about men’s issues” but like when is it then?

    Probably not in the thread with the comic about womens issues being talked over by men, like you’re doing now, would be a good choice.

    EDIT: I’ll eat the downvotes. Just wanted to say how embarrassing it is to be a man and hear ‘but what about men’s issues?’ used in a non-ironic way. Sorry ladies, you don’t deserve this crap. Also thanks for being the bulwark against fascism.
