Dunham said she left the party early and was informed of Clinton’s loss when a friend called and told her.
The actress wrote that as a result of her support for Clinton throughout her campaign, she received “threats and abuse” at a level she could never have imagined. However, she remained hopeful that her detractors represented “the dying moans of the dragon known as the patriarchy being stabbed again and again in the stomach.”
Dunham continued:
We believed that on November 9, they’d be licking their wounds while we celebrated. It is painful on a cellular level knowing those men got what they wanted, just as it’s painful to know you are hated for daring to ask for what is yours. It’s painful to know that white women, so unable to look past their violent privilege, and so inoculated with hate for themselves, showed up to the polls for him, too. My voice was literally lost when I woke up, squeaky and raw, and I ached in the places that make me a woman, the places where I’ve been grabbed so carelessly, the places we are struggling to call our own.
In her essay, Dunham predicted it would be too difficult for Clinton supporters to attempt to understand the motivation behind Trump’s support, suggesting the task would be best left to “strategists” and “men in offices who need to run the numbers.”
“It should not be the job of women, of people of color, of queer and trans Americans, to understand who does not consider them human and why, just as it’s not the job of the abused to understand their abuser,” Dunham wrote. “It’s quite enough work to know about and bear the hatred of so many. It’s quite enough work to go on living.”

This chick is so seriously annoying. One of the most pathetic, look at ME things I have read in a loooooong time.
This Thread is Worthless With Pictures.
Obama called Trump “inhumane”, yet this Moron says that Trump Supporters don’t consider others Human.
If white people voted as a block for republicans the way blacks, Hispanics and other minorities do for democrats, republicans would dominate politics for the foreseeable future.
There is no font big enough to write Do Not Want to those photos. Perhaps skywriting would express it the best.
Funny. I worked the polls that day and without question, the people that messed up their ballots time and time again were the “smart” libs.

pablum compared to the bleats of some of my classmates (1967) on Facebook...
“I don’t even understand one word she is saying.”
I believe that these writings consist of some sophisticated and/or hijacked words and phrases that millenials have learned to mimic from their peers and coastal professors so that when strung together randomly, they can fool certain people of other generations into believing that there might be some thought behind them.
What is she smokin?idiot lib.

Here’s a person complaining about “white women’s violent privilege” while upholding the right to greet new life with a knife.
She does not speak for women.
Women can speak for themselves, Dunham.
We don’t need you to speak for us.
You people are just awful. She looks pretty good for an average woman in her late fifties.
