Maybe your wife's choice of career has fuck all to do with how good of a person you are. Since she's not property and you don't control her, yeah?
Who is downvoting this? Melania is a monster, but doing nude modeling has 0 to do with it. Attacking Trump through that is really gross. He has plenty of gross skeletons to go for, and Melania has actually objectionable actions, this meme is trash.
Yeah, shaming her for nude photos is pretty fucking weak and, imo, just detracts from any point you're trying to make
Its even worse, because they're shaming him for her nude photos.
Yea. The misogynistic rhetoric really ruins this post.
True. Pointing out a double standard has value, but they picked something imaginary instead of all the other criticisms that were directed at Obama and not Trump. Occupy Democrats has been consistently pretty crap tbh. Lots of twisted facts even if the spirit is in the right place.
Nude modeling is morally neutral.
Hell, participating in ethically made hardcore porn is morally neutral.
Judging a woman for either is misogynistic. Judging that woman’s partner for her choices is even more misogynistic.
she met trump on one of epsteins meet and greet parties.
My take is that it's a rejection of the "high road" stance. That we have to be the better ones and don't stoop to their level. Nothing is off limits when Trump is attacking people. The high ground hasn't done anything positive. Besides that, people body shame Trump. His hair, his weight, his penis size. Call her a gold digging slut. There hasn't been rules for years.
Yes that's how we beat the awful people who control the world!
Nothing causes lasting and meaningful political change like going for the low hanging and bigoted fruits! Let's all be misogynistic for equality!
For the record, I don't advocate that shitlib "high road" (AKA do nothing but argue procedure and deliver empty sound bites while fascists gradually stamp down every right and liberty owed to all people) either.
Be vicious towards the fascists. But be specific about it. Tell them exactly why they're loathsome and what sort of treatment they deserve.
You don't accomplish anything by slut shaming the awful wife of a misogynistic monster. It's like mud wrestling with a pig.
Funny that we can reject the high-road when it comes to misogynistic or body shaming in our messaging, but not, say, when it comes to needlessly restraining actual action with norms and procedures that Republicans can and do break at every convenience.
If you successfully move people over with puritanical talking points, the party or whatever will get more puritanical. It also makes it easier for the other side to dismiss or counterattack if the other side is not puritanical. In this situation, it would be better to commend her "sex-positivity" or alternative lifestyle, relying on the other side's dissapproval of such things, instead of framing it as "bad," which kind of concedes that point.
I think it’s more about the evangelical base and their extreme cope than necessarily about Melania, though being hypocritical to attack your out group is nothing new.
Yes, for me it's the hypocrisy of the base. Imagine if Michelle or Hillary had been listed on that website Melania was on and had their pictures circulating. Imagine if those families had decorated the White House with some gaudy shit. Like Obama said, "imagine if I had done any of that". The commenters are missing the point.
I say this as someone who doesn't have Obamna Derangement Syndrome: this post is painful boomer slop.
It's good that Obama isn't on the Epstein list.
But a woman's value isn't based on how many people have seen her body.
For Republicans, it is.
We shouldn't encourage them to think they're right.
a lil early for anyone to be gloating about not being on a list that doesn't not exist any more on Tuesdays.
We have no idea if Obama is on the list because we don't have the list. We pretty much know that Trump is on it, and someone like Bill Clinton is also very likely on there, but Bush Jr, Obama, and Biden could all also be on that list but we just don't know. It's a list of very powerful people, and anybody who has held the office of the presidency is a suspect as far as I'm concerned.
Smashing the Like button on Occupy Democrats facebook posts is what boomers think meaningful political activism is
Unlike Dump I actually would want to see Bama's wife naked.
Not really a strong conviction here, but she seems like she's not all plastic yet. A mind up there, too... Always good in my list
Also, she at least looks like someone who's actually had an orgasm in the past 40 years or so.
And youve done what to stop trump?
Edit: Downvote me all you want. How is it trump can mobilize a whole ass nazi movement and its too much to expect dem leadership to fucking do anything about it?
Trump was a con man and reality TV star. Obama was fucking president eight years.
Trump would lose his fucking mind. Remember, Obama baggin' on him is why he ran in the first place.
If you haven't seen it, history in the making, and funny as hell to boot. Except for the consequences.
(drops bombs)
sure but that’s not the metric by which we measure goodness, considering. As in, memery aside, he should not be speaking as if he’s not a monster as well. 😂
