Yep.
Yep.
Yep.
I mean, i think this is a pretty shared feeling in both men and women. No use is fragmentating hatred.
Structural misogyny, so it's mostly the horrible old men doing it.
Im sure the horrible old women would be just as vile if we let them. (But we don't)
Nobodys blaming the not-horrible old men. Nobody's gunning for bernard sanders steve woczniak or mel brooks. Id mix a mocktail with metamucil in it for those guys any time.
Also, maybe pay attention to adjectives!
I think they're asking both men and women if they think old psychotic men ruining the world is annoying.
Because while psychotic billionaire women surely exist, I think we can agree that most autocrats and other crazy blood-hungry politicians are usually male.
I mean, name a female despot from modern times? History has a few. Queen Mary aka "Bloody Mary", Cleopatra, Catherine the Great, etc. But they're clearly a minority, just like with serial killers and other violent criminals.
Witchcraft and resisting the patriarchy are both gender neutral activities.
"Witchcraft," historically, has been used (by old white dudes) as a means of punishment and control of women.
“Women are too emotional to be leaders”
hahahahhahahahhahahahahahahaahahahhahahahahhahahahhaha
/me takes deep breath
hahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhaha
Well yeah! Have you ever seen the turd doing anything that he (or the world) would regret?
(I am trying to write this with a straight face, it's hard)
Women are too emotional to be leaders
Seems to only ever be said by people who don't count anger as an emotion.
In my experience it’s said by people who have no respect for women
Human here. Not a witch and definitely not a velociraptor. I am too fed up of them.
The username checks out, but I don’t know enough about witches to be certain.
I was never not sick of it. I even tried to convince people to vote against it.
This is not a gender issue - more female CEOs and shit aint gonna fix the system. I am fed up of wealthy people ruining the world and you should be too.
If anybody thinks otherwise, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Karoline Leavitt, etc
Too bad the only language they understand is violence but we're all domesticated to think that's unacceptable
The great thing about domestication is that when enough people are unhoused, it fixes itself!
“Psychotic old people” it’s not just old men voting for these idiots.
Honestly, I'm so fucking over men's rule in general. How about we let women rule instead?
We should try no gods no masters for a change.
Like Thatcher?
I'm not trying to defend men here, in fact they are horrible; but it's not like history hasn't seen horrible female leaders. Almost like it's a human instead of a gender-specific trait
Look, Thatcher was a complete asshat and I hope people use her grave as a toilet for the next 1000 years, but scoring one point for women are just as bad, compared to the thousands of male asshats just feel forced.
Do we know a matriarchy would be better? Noop. Do we know it would be worse? Noop. We could at least try something beyond the dysfunctional system we have today.
We tried that. She was as power hungry as the rest of them.
I agree - let's have bourgeois women shafting workers instead of bourgeois men shafting workers.
We're progressive like that!
And this is how david hogg got fired after winning the dnc election. We dont need one type of person, what we need are qualified individuals no matter what gender or race.
Do you think the Spice Girls effectively utilized girl power by funneling money to David Beckham's estate?
Simply replacing the gender of those in power does not change the systemic conditions of power. In other words, a system designed by and as a patriarchy does not cease to be a patriarchy because it is run by women. It would only cease as such by the very same systemic changes needed to bring non-(wealthy-CISHet-WASPs) into the the majority of leadership.
I truly do not want a government loaded full of MTG's nor Barretts.
Anyone else getting sick of young people who voted them in?
And the other psychotic old men who deliberately poisoned those young people's minds? Yeah.
Psychotic? You're saying Trump, Putin, Netanyahu, etc. are suffering from an acute period of paranoid delusions and hallucinations?
Or are you and everyone else who upvoted this meme ready to admit that you have no idea what most psychological terms mean, and just sprinkle them randomly through your sentences like SpongeBob and Patrick after learning a swear word?
Psychotic as in senile...
That's not what psychotic means. These are medical terms with important meanings. These words aren't toys.
I had the audacity to criticise Bill Gates (a hoarding billionaire), floods of people rose to protect him ...
So yes.
Well, he is trying to give away ALL of his wealth before he dies now, so he has that up on other billionaires.
Now, as for how he ended up with those billions…
The inherent problem with this is that charity should be something guided by community consensus and expert opinion, not at the whim of an oligarch (who is primarily funneling money into his own foundation). Imagine if that money went into fair worker pay and then was taxed appropriately, where it could then be used for outreach programs, grants, funding ngos, etc dictated by political means rather than having some pseudo king having to decide your cause is worthy. granted in our current climate the political means are rotten but if we had an equitable system that didn’t allow for bill gates to exist we would hopefully have a better framework for this part too.
Also will take the time to point out that for all of his “charity” his net worth has, for the most part, stayed the same or increased throughout the years. Something tells me his kids will have still have obscene generational wealth
I strongly recommend anyone that thinks Gates has redeeming qualities listen to the Behind the Bastards on the man.
Spoiler: there are no redeeming qualities about any billionaires.
He isn't giving away his wealth my poor summer child.
He said that in the nineties and he did "give away" 45 billions, but to his own "charity" which he controls, to avoid paying taxes.
Let that sink in, you have a hundred billions and you wake up early to figure out how to pay less taxes...
Isn't Gates the guy who convinced Oxford to turn away from licensing their Covid vaccine under an open license so anyone could distribute it for cheap, and instead made them sign with Astrazeneca "to scale up production and distribution"
He's not the worst, but Epstein, hoarding, Windows Vista...
