Feminist magazine columnist brushes off Biden's sex assault allegations and says he would get her vote even if he 'boiled babies and ate them' because she is so desperate to get Trump out of the White House

A feminist writer has brushed off Joe Biden's sexual assault allegations and says she would vote for him to be president even 'if he boiled babies and ate them'.

Magazine columnist Katha Pollitt, 70, wrote she was so desperate to get President Donald Trump out of the White House that democrat presumptive nominee Joe Biden had her vote despite allegations he sexually assaulted Tara Reade in 1993.

Writing in The Nation, where she has a bimonthly column called Subject To Debate, Ms Pollitt said: 'I would vote for Joe Biden if he boiled babies and ate them.'

'I cannot believe that a rational person can grasp the disaster that is Donald Trump and withhold their support from Biden because of Tara Reade,' she added. 'I would say this even if I had no problems with Reade's account.'

Ms Pollitt is well-known for her prominent writings on feminist discourse and has written books titled; Reasonable Creatures: Essays on Women and Feminism, and Subject to Debate: Sense and Dissents on Women, Politics and Culture.

In her latest column, published on Wednesday, she acknowledged that she would usually 'take women's accusations very seriously'.

Tara Reade has accused Biden of cornering her while she worked as a staffer in the Capitol 27 years ago.

Ms Pollitt wrote: 'To believe Reade, you have to believe that Biden put her up against a wall and penetrated her with his fingers on the spur of the moment in a hallway in the Capitol complex, where she says she was looking for him to give him his gym bag.'

Ms Pollitt, author of four essay collections and two books of poetry, is a liberal who focuses on themes of politics; abortion, welfare reform and feminism.

She means those words literally. Any good feminist will happily reveal her hatred and scorn for babies, because they are forced upon innocent women by the evil male patriarchy.

Wake up folks. These people would rather live in a barren wasteland without President Trump and conservatives than live in the greatest country in the world with us. The depths of their dark hatred and depravity needs to be understood.

"Yes, when backed into a corner ardent “Libs” show they really do not have any morals or scruples; it’s all about merely having power to them."

It's about more than power. It's about believing you are one of the 'elite', and that your worldview, intellect, and 'understanding' are superior. Trump has made it clear that these would-be emperors have no clothes, and are, in fact, feckless. That's why they hate him.

This columnist, Pollitt, signed the "Humanist Manifesto". The tenets of this 'humanist' belief system include that:

1. Knowledge of the world is derived by observation, experimentation, and rational analysis. 2. Humans are an integral part of nature, the result of unguided evolutionary change. 3. Ethical values are derived from human need and interest as tested by experience. 4. Life’s fulfillment emerges from individual participation in the service of humane ideals. 5. Humans are social by nature and find meaning in relationships. 6. Working to benefit society maximizes individual happiness.

In short, it's all about 'intellectualism' and secularism, and there is little tolerance for the 'little people' who believe in God, don't have pedigrees, and watch Netflix instead of reading poetry.

Realize that, as a solid liberal writing in a solidly liberal new source, she gets to define reality.

Ever notice the similarities between liberals and muslim extremists? I mean they really bear quite a resemblance to one another if you think about it.

“Are they Femi-Nazis because they are UGLY, or are they UGLY because they are Femi-Nazis??”

True ugliness grows from within & boils to the surface as time goes on. Helen Thomas in her youth was attractive, as was Ruth Bader Ginsburg. They aged hideously, however.

The execrable Ana Kasparian on TYT has youthful looks but hatred will turn her into a wrinkled crone.

This is the far left fringe and not enough to carry a national election. It will put off the independents in the middle.

One of the big similarites is they are followers. They identify an “adult guru” and follow everything they say.

Conservatives tend to think for themselves and value personal freedom and responsibility. They may listen to your advice or suggestion, and then choose to take or reject it. Leftists and Muslims find that “glorious leader” and will follow them off a cliff.

When I was in prison ministry I saw a lot of black men that were becoming muslim. Thing about islam is that it teaches that if you do exactly what they say, then any problems you have are the responsibility and “fault” of someone else, be it the great satan (the US) Israel, or your infidel neighbor. And these (mostly fatherless) men need that kind of tight control on their lifestyle so they embrace it.

Leftists are like the little cars on the track at a carnival that follow a rail around a course and the steering wheel is connected to nothing. You make no decisions. You are not in control. You are on a pre-determined path and tightly so.

Conservatives are more like the cars at Autopia (Disneyland) where there is a rail in the middle, but you have a couple of feet of width to play with. You are actually in control but you are prevented from going off the road.

And truly free men are like the cars on the public roads. You are even free to kill yourself and others. But you don’t. :)

I wonder how many conservatives were in the David Koresh compound.

“...The warped thought process of a liberal woman. Liberal woman have destroyed this country....”
There was a reason the Founding Fathers prevented women from being involved in politics/government etc. It had nothing to do with “sexism”, and everything to do with emotionalism.

Koresh was the shot across the bow. It was the warning that opposition to the Deep State will get you and your loved ones slaughtered. That’s what happened! At this point, if people think that we can somehow negotiate a truce with the left they are delusional. They want to kill you, and destroy the souls of your children. The worst feature of Leftism is that it always comes at you with a “Face of Compassion”. This allows them to acquire power, and when they have it, they incarnate the goddess they worship: Kali. But this is an enraged Kali who will destroy with only one goal in mind: Power.

“There was one lady among the leftists I had not noticed before, though she was markedly ugly. It was not the kind of ugliness that’s an accident of birth but the kind that is the result of years of ill temper, pique, and petty malice.” - P.J. O’Rourke

Living with that much spite and anger will do that to a person, it’s rough on the body.

It’s all about keeping their beloved right to kill their own child up to and including the point of delivery.

'I would vote for Joe Biden if he boiled babies and ate them.'
'I would say this even if I had no problems with Reade's account.'

The author is willing to sacrifice OTHER women and children for her aims - I say this because at 70, she won't be the one groped. It will be someone else or their kids.

Evil. Cruel. Totally lacking in compassion and empathy. Sociopathic.

This is how people end up in cattle cars, in killing fields, in mass graves and ovens - because people like this woman offer them up.

“she would vote for him to be president even ‘if he boiled babies and ate them’.”

Because she's an immoral female and not a real woman.

What saddens me are the millions of young women who believe this filth.
Any woman who teaches or influences others of this poison needs to endlessly mocked ridiculed & scorned.
Funny how quickly the left dropped “pound me too” & “believe all women”.
I can’t respect anybody who so very quickly abandons their principles. Especially after so proudly announcing them to the world.
