Problematic Women: Women Are Increasingly Embracing Socialism … but Why?
The Daily Signal ^ | June 13, 2019 | Lauren Evans and Kelsey Bolar

Posted on 06/13/2019 6:44:25 PM PDT by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

In a recent poll for “Axios on HBO,” 55% of American women say they would prefer to live in a socialist country over a capitalist country. This week on “Problematic Women,” we discuss why women are embracing socialism and what can be done to stop this trend.

Also, we break down why freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says members of Congress, despite already making $174,000 a year, deserve a pay raise.

We crown Yale University graduate and future Justice Brett Kavanaugh law clerk Sophia Chua-Rubenfeld Problematic Woman of the Week.

And we discuss these topics:

— Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had surprisingly positive things to say about Kavanaugh’s first class of law clerks.

— Pro-life group Live Action was permanently banned from Pinterest this week for spreading “misinformation.”

— Mary Katharine Ham, CNN contributor and single mom of two, talks feminism, being a mother in the public eye, and much more.

Universal suffrage is here to stay so we'll need other solutions.

Once The Great Reset occurs, civilized society will sh!tcan idiotic, destructive fairytales such as “universal suffrage”, “diversity is our strength”, “we are all equal”, “this is money because we say it is” and “everyone has their own truth”.

Sadly at times in certain instances, I cannot disagree.

If they are naturally more protective...why would they desire more outward security from someone else?

The notion that women might be protective of their family they built doesn’t extend to the building and protecting of civilization. The family operates a socialist level. Resources are distributed equally in a family because children. Civilization was built by men. The US was built by men. Women are destroying it by applying family-level concepts to society at large.

That’s one reason why Communists are pushing women into power.

My mom thought the gov’t was the answer to everything then she got a job when she was in her late 40’s. She complained about her co-workers doing less and getting paid more then her. I thought to myself what’s new as I had been working since I was about 16 onward and seen this many times.

My parents retired and they moved out of state and started 3 business’s. My mom complained and complained about gov’t paperwork and taxes etc. She went from a liberal to a conservative.

My dad always was conservative as his father started a business and dealt with gov’t and the teamsters union and passed along his feelings about them...

Coffee clatches...the view...baby showers...doing lunch....backyard chatting....afternoon clubs....I wonder if that is also due to being protected in numbers...a man is less likely to attack a group of gals than a solitary one...socialism just might be the governmental extrapolation of small social protective groups...works in small groups...not in the big bad dangerous outside world...

X chromosome poisoning. The first symptom of this condition is the inability to think in a logical manner, usually coupled with both ignorance of, and utter disdain for, history.

Not all people with 2 X chromosomes suffer from this condition, but when they do, whoboy, you had better be wearing body armor..

Not necessarily fake, but majorly misleading. First off, what is the % on “men”? Second, what is the demo break-down on the women? 55% is not statistically significant, ESPECIALLY if the norms of different demographics is thrown in. 12% of the pop voting 90% (that’s generous) commie is bound to skew otherwise balanced results. Even if not, 5% just is not seriously significant.

I saw a GREAT ARTICLE about this very poll. It was written by a professor of statistics with a concentration on polling.

He got ahold of the questions, and one poppped out at him.

"Do you consider yourself a Republican, a Democrat, an Independent, or what?"

That little pair of words, "or what" -- which, on its surface, seems a little like a vocal tic -- turns out to skew the poll heavily. Remember, in polling, phrasing is never a mistake.

The addition of the "or what" phrase added a fourth mental choice, one that Democrats tend to cue on more than Republicans. It is a subtle urging for a Democrat to self-identify as an Independent. So the normal 50/50 of Indies becomes very skewed towards Democrats.

Democrats already had a 5 point advantage in this poll. Add another 3-4 percent for this very crafty, very calculated "or what" technique.

I think you’re right. And the Great Reset is right around the corner: a supercycle of 80-year cycles. Last one culminated in WWII. This one will make that one look mild by comparison, I think.

“Free [fill in the blank] is a right” is equally appealing and misleading. They never mention the slaves that have to create or pay for the “free” stuff.

You are right. An actual war brings a shortage of the presence of fathers which results in the feminization of the boys. After the Civil War the need for boys to be godly men brought about the creation of the Boy Scouts which challenged boys to be men. (I believe that the Scouts began as a youth group in the Methodist and Mormon Church.) After the First World war one book that was written (among many) was the Masculinity of Christ and Billy Sunday became a hero. We need another movement in the church today challenging boys to become Men of God.

Precisely.

Not just self-protection, “mothering.”

The feminists want to be taken care of but not by a man.
