Sucks that you had to be a Trump supporting racist, Mr. Scott Adams.

    You think gold digging warrants misogyny? Yikes 🤢

    She just played the capitalist patriarchy, good on her. Don’t hate the player, hate the game.

      I said think gold digging brings misoginy by consequence, I never said I think it justifies it.
      Don’t put words in my mouth just to cry for a cause there is no need to fight here.

      And as a side, I always found the phrase “don’t hate the player, hate the game” as dumb as the culture who coined it: who the hell is playing the game? The spectators? Of course you hate the players, they’re the only reason the game is being played!

          don’t know how else to interpret that.

          It involves assuming the point of view of a misoginist who feels entitled to be misoginistic. I know it’s not a position you thought you’d end up when you woke up this morning, but trying to understand what’s going on in other people’s head is a first step towards fighting intolerance.

            “women should behave a certain way to not justify misogyny” comes off about as well as “black people should behave a certain way to not justify racism”, imo

            i appreciate your intentions, but this is not the way

      I read their comment in a way ‘that stands in the way of eradicating misogyny’ not in a way ‘it makes misogyny allowed’
