White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday that President Donald Trump is exploring legal pathways to “deport” U.S. citizens to El Salvador, where the administration has already arranged to house deported immigrants in a prison known for its human rights abuses.
Can we not criticize fascism by jumping to unreconstructed misogyny please
Tbh is pretty accurate. My only wish is we had some good equivalent term for males, because the Republican party is chock-full of male goldigging whores
I just don’t think this lady’s hypothetical sexual promiscuity is the main problem here you know? This shouldn’t be controversial.
The problem is the fascism- detaining and deporting people for being the wrong color and stirring up hate against them.
From the dictionary: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/whore
3. a mercenary or unscrupulous person : a person who is willing to compromise their integrity or principles for personal gain or in pursuit of something
I think you might be the only person who read the comment, and immediately think about the sexual meaning of this.
What I agree with you though, it that the term is mostly applied to women, hence why I was looking for a term that can be applied easily to men such as Ted Cruz (the master whore), or McConnell. Plenty of whoring in the Republican party males.
Its quite upsetting that when this behavior is done by males, we always try to find other slurs (sleazy etc), and when a woman do it, this one always comes out first. It should be applied equally. But that said, again, its the perfect description for what she is doing atm.
These idiots don’t get that they’re part of the problem
Eh? Whore is pretty ungendered.
I’m truly shocked that they said that, and that it was upvoted.
I don’t feel a need to be polite to MAGA Traitors. She IS a goldigging whore, and I stand by it. The fact there are upvotes shows that many agree.
If you want your country back, grow up and get with the program. These jackals are evil, and deserve no respect or mercy for any reason. Direct your feminist outrage toward the people who are actively, enthusiastically trying to create an American Taliban, and returning womens’ rights to the Middle Ages, not people like me who are resisting it.
You can be impolite while pointing to their actual bad behavior, like the black bagging and deportation and dismantling the administrative state and whatnot. Not their supposed sexual promiscuity. Bit hard to believe how I have to keep explaining this
Or, I can do all you suggested, and ALSO dehumanize them with humiliating names. Republicans do it routinely, because it works, and under the present circumstances, the Resistance shouldn’t waste a single weapon at our disposal. Propaganda is a powerful weapon, and its one that we can, and should, wield ruthlessly. They certainly do, and they deserve to get it right back.
You remember the Michelle Obama doctrine - When they go low, we go high? That’s what got us into this mess. I’m long tired of being nice, or polite, especially to traitors and Nazis.
I’m trying to save your freedom, so get with the program or get out of the way.
You are weak. This is why this country is failing
Bro, what alpha male bullshit are you spouting off about, we need more sensitive people like this in positions of power, do you think what’s going on right now is working and is a good thing with society, Seriously I’m asking you a question
