Dp-this thread is getting off topic, but yes, India has had (not sure if it’s still) a huge problem with women getting attacked by groups of men, often for doing things like, walking to the grocery, or riding pubic transport. It was prominently in our news cycle for a while. |
Or, occams razor, she is just as vacuous and idiotic as Sarah Palin. |
I only saw the illegal immigrant part because of that tic toc but it was weird. She’s weird. |
Dp/ I don’t think she is similar to Palin in that regard. She’s a political animal and plenty smart. The problem is she and the rest of the GOP have been stewing in a hermetically sealed right wing media bubble. They have lost perspective, and have lost touch. I don’t think they are aware of how off the mark they are. They don’t even understand the logical consequences of the legislation they’ve been pushing for the last 40 years. Like personhood at conception. Don’t get me wrong, democrats have some bone headed ideas too, but at least they are typically “new” ideas, and they tend to be open to course correction, like with “defund the police”. The sad thing here is that the republicans will learn the wrong lesson here. “See! Nobody wants to hear from a woman!” Or “ see! Woman just aren’t cut out for leadership” |
What is “our” news cycle? Just because western media publishes bullshit does not make India on the whole unsafe for women. India, like US has some unsafe places and some pretty safe places. Please educate yourself if you want to talk about another country beyond clickbait news articles. |
+1. People are equating her to Serena Joy from The Handmaid’s Tale. It was more like a warning of what might happen vs reassurance for suburban women. |
There’s literally a state department travel advisory regarding this, WIDELY KNOWN PROBLEM. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/india-travel-advisory.html |
It was her audition for VP. The GOP are bleeding women. They k ow they need a VP who seems normal but will 💯 toe the MAGA party line. Britt showed totally up for being the GOP’s Serena Joy, but she was weak, and Trump hate’s weakness. |
You are giving Britt too much credit. This was practiced and planned all the way down to 30 minutes before Biden began speaking, Katie Britt's friends sent conservative pundits talking points they could use to praiser her speech, such as... “She came off like America’s mom — she gets it." "Her border section was a real ‘Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,’ moment" “Reminiscent of Reagan’s message of that Shining City on a Hill.” “Biden's speech was tone deaf, Katie's was the perfect pitch.”. 🤦🏽♀️ |
Wow. The delusion runs deep. I can't wait for the cold opening for tonight's SNL. |

A shallow and superficial observation that has no bearing. |
The million dollar question: did Katie Britt use IVF to have her children? Has anyone asked the soccer mom Senator from Alabama about this? |
