Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Might be getting downvotes because it's a straw man argument. It presupposes that women are voting for women because of their gender. I myself don't know if that's true. And "women" is such a large voting bloc that looking at median behaviors seems unproductive.
I think some women are looking for representatives who will defend their right to live and not bleed out or be injured for life by voting for candidates that support access to reproductive care, along with other issues that matter to them. Women on the left, like VP Harris, put forward full-throated support for that. But maybe I'm naive?
Nah, it asks if it's also wrong when a woman votes for a woman because she's a woman.
I was just trying to point out the hypocrisy of people online when it comes to this statement:
Which I believe I succeeded in. Usually, when people present such a statement, there's the implicit
[only when it comes to men]- either by the one who posted the statement or those who read the statement (or both). I find it a weird combo of funny+sad when people try to justify to themselves that the same thing is fine if it involves anyone but men, but it's wrong when it involves men.Oh you GOT us alright. /s
I find it funny/sad when people die on a hill that makes them look awful under the guise of being some new level of perfect human that always acts logically and is aware of and immune to any potential bias. It's everyone else who is wrong, always, because you are the only truly objective individual.
Maybe sell your MRA bullshit elsewhere?
Oh, don't cry me here that you feel called out because you're a misandrist. Fellas like you are as disgusting as the ones you claim to hate. Like, you went full 360 to be as awful, you just have different reasons.
And yeah, until you stop feeling high and mighty that you're doing the right thing by being exactly as awful, just against a different group of people, I'll be calling you out and I'll be forcing you to feel called out because that's what hypocrites deserve.
No idea what MRA means, so not sure what I'm "selling" and I don't particularly care about some weird labels you assign people so that you can feel better.
No one is buying your "hypocrite" angle, probably not even you.
If you feel called out so much, maybe reconsider your behaviour?
Lol ironic
