    what about white females?

    I read that in the ferengi voice on ds9. “Feeeemaaleeesssss”

    You’d think we were in the Stone Age.

    If I said some clown ass shit like this while representing my employer I’d get dropped so hard. Would love to see this turd face some consequences - other than having to live inside his own head anyway

    What about white females? The right would still call them derogatory names if they didn’t completely and wholeheartedly submit to them.

    They had their white representation for about ever and now have a chance to have their WOMEN representation.

    / not from the US.

    They could always Dementia Don the racist rapist with 34 felonies that complete a coherent sentence drop out because he’s too old, and replace him with a white female. Personally, I’d like to see that Jewish space lasers nutjob get her ass handed to her by our current VP.

    So Republicans fully support a white republican female as president?

    Where is this candidate?

    Oh right they’re still on the “old white guy” train and it’s not about skin color or gender beyond their racism and sexism.

    I already need a second hand to count the number of times I’ve heard people saying “she used to be a prostitute” in public or at work, while also not remembering WHO said that, where they heard it from, or any sort of evidence to back it up beyond “I just pulled this out of my ass because she’s a woman and that’s what I associate women with”

      Not exactly. It’s more that they are questioning Biden’s decision to only consider black women for certain roles (VP, Supreme Court Justice). They know affirmative action polls poorly, so they’re attacking him where he’s weak.

      Americans, by and large, want people to be selected based solely on ability. They want everyone to have a fair chance - but despise the idea of guaranteed slots being held open for people who look a certain way. Even California outlawed affirmative action.

      This isn’t the terrible double-standard you think it is - just a decently calibrated political attack.

    What about what about white females?

    jesus tapdancing christ, he actually said that. In public. To a reporter.

    We need to vote these people fucking racists into oblivion. They genuinely think her skin color is the most important thing about her. Get lost, my country doesn’t need asswipes like you.

    Shit like this makes me not even care what Kamala does as president. She could sit in the Oval Office and spin around in her chair for four years and still be leagues better than Trump. I’ll vote for her just to upset the racists.

      The problem is their voters think race is the most important factor. They just need a way to imply it and act like they aren’t racist.

        They’re not even acting like they aren’t racist why more. “What about white females” is literally a racist foghorn with a hint of incel

        The problem is Americans (left, right, center) aren’t demanding this racist piece of shit to resign. This country has tolerated entirely too much racism, sexism, and phoney Christianity over the past 250 years. It’s time we demand these people stop representing America and crawl back into their caves.

            We’ve been waiting for 250 years. The calls won’t come. And if they do, please come back and tell me I’m wrong. I would love to be wrong.

                By all means, please define the appropriate amount of time before I am allowed to be outraged.

                Edit: To add on, we already knew this would be the response to an announced Harris campaign and, guess what, it was. As a country, we need to strike back much more expeditiously and severely if we truly want this behavior to stop.

                  I would suggest that the appropriate time would be not during the night when everyone is asleep about a story that also came out at night.

                  I’m not sure why you think pointing fingers at people before they even know about something is productive.

      He’s from Tennessee. This will probably get him re-elected.

      (To be fair, he could say that 1001 elephants were standing on his toe and get re-elected.)

    Hey, anyone remember those old peanut butter cup ads? The ones where some peanut butter and chocolate get mixed together accidentally and people realize they taste good together?

    This is just like those ads! Except with misogyny and racism, of course.

    What happened to white women? Well, she ran for office and you claimed she was unfit for office because women are emotionally unstable and something about emails that magically disappeared as soon as Ivanka got caught ACTUALLY deleting emails.
