The Feminization of American Politics

This sex-based divide may endure for upcoming elections, but the arithmetic for a feminist-brand party will not ensure victory regardless of the Democrat’s aggressive pro-women agenda.

The term “permanent campaign” emerged in 1976 and has come to mean candidates beginning their next campaign immediately after election day. Think Gavin Newsom, who is already campaigning for the 2028 presidency. Trump’s 2024 victory, however, suggests a new political concept: never-ending public grief over having lost, a behavior akin to mass hysteria.

Universities abound with traumatized Harris supporters seeking mental health counseling to overcome their misery. One “bereaved” student even desperately announced on social media, “I may actually kill myself in front of the capitol building as a form of protest.” Such hysterical reactions also entail fantasies such as claiming that Trump will soon ban all birth control or arrest Harris voters. At Princeton University traumatized students enjoyed safe space “listening circles” where students could “de-stress” with arts and crafts and coloring books. Harvard, Penn, and Columbia cancelled classes to accommodate scared and bewildered students. The Collective, ” a “queer owned” vegan, sustainable grocery store in Iowa closed immediately following Trump’s victory “to protect our crew and to feel what needs to be felt.”

This despair drove people to consider fleeing the country. Google searches for “move to Canada” surged 1270% post-election, and similar searches for immigrating to New Zealand climbed nearly 2000%. A poll among Harris supporters found that 90% said that they were considering moving abroad while 80% are thinking about relocating to a different state,

Newspaper advice columns offer advice to Democrats on dealing with Trump voters over holiday meals. Even before he assumed office, thousands recently marched in Manhattan accusing Trump of being anti-trans, homophobic, a racist, and guilty of systematic oppression.

The left seems largely irrational so I can’t see how the right can reason with them. They get emotionally manipulated by the leftist elitists.

Yeah, that's all well and good, but when will they actually leave and be done with it? Clock is ticking, lefties! Tick tick...

I didn’t realize that sterilizing your children was “feminist”.

Kat Timpf made a droll comment on Gutfeld about feminism and the election. She said that the election proved that men hate feminists almost as much as women.

[hal ogen]

Feminism has made a lot of cats very happy. There’s that.

[Tell It Right]

Feminazis hate the loss of power they had, just from saying that they’re offended or such.

[Secret Agent Man]

Of America (not just politics). Huge problem.

[who knows what evil?]

AMEN!!!

[masadaman]

Shouldn’t that read “…almost as much as women do”? Otherwise, it can be read as men hate women, less than they hate feminists.

[Qwapisking]

“feminism a lot of cats very happy”. a lot of former men too. remember friends...”feminists demanded that women are equal to men in every way and now that they are the feminists are complaining about it” is proof positive that the typical liberal progressive XX female cannot ever BE happy, even when they get what they ask for. and Boy howdie they got what they asked for!

[FlingWingFlyer]

Shemale politicians are bigger crooks than male politicians. If they are lawyers, they should not be allowed to bring lawsuits in order to go Christmas shopping.

Mass voluntary resettlement program (with renounced citizenship)?

[lurk]

This is a pendulum. Young men are already swinging back toward masculinity, and in a short time the young women will find themselves acting their part too.

it ain’t just politics ...

[Billthedrill]

What may be happening here is the end state of the co-option of the various 70's "liberation" movements by the Left as a tool for the advancement of a broader ideology. That end state comes when it becomes apparent that the leaders of those movements operate at the expense of the groups they were ostensibly intended to advance. Evidence for this hypothesis consists of BLM activists in thousand-dollar suits living in million-dollar mansions, and of mentally unstable men being injected into women's athletics at the expense of real women. They were always scams, at least to a degree, and now they've become obvious ones.

This does not bring the original intentions of those movements into question so much as their betrayal by the cynical and power-addicted. And, as the saying about all con games goes, sooner or later the marks find out.

[Dat]

Everyone plays the victim today in order to manipulate those in power and get what they want. I would say that is the main contribution that women have had to the political culture, and now men do it too.
