Oh, interesting that she just used Erin as an example… The article that I read made it seem like she did like a whole podcast on her lol. I still don’t see any of this as infantilizing Erin. People are describing her as young and young actress but, she is. I’m so confused on her age I thought, she was 32. Either way, I’m not sure I believe she’s had work done. To me it looks like make up. I think it’s an interesting discussion to have but I’m not sure I would just pick an actress like Erin. Kim Kardashian and her family are used to it and they make billions off lip products and skin products and spanks products and what not, so I’m OK with ribbing them a little about plastic surgery cause of the hypocrisy. But I don’t understand picking on a relatively up-and-coming actress. |
Can we discuss Megyn's latest interview with Bill Maher where she describes them as "similar" and says on the "ideological scale", 1 being completely left wing and 10 being completely right wing, Bill is a 4 and she's a 6? She is more deranged than I thought if she thinks she's anywhere in the middle. She's literally an anti-vax covid denier.
She then confirmed that she's voting for Trump and says she's doing it for her dd, so her dd doesn't have to see penises in the locker room. No word on if her dd deserves a mother who doesn't kowtow to a man who made period jokes about her. I guess she's also now pretending she's not an election denier even though she's literally stated that Trump won the election. |
Republican here. She is in the middle. 6 is about right if compared to Maher at 4 (he’s quite liberal to be a 4). I’d label them a 7 and 3.
She regularly has interviewees from both sides and lets them say their piece. She has a strong JK Rowling position on trans, but she’s pretty low key about a lot of other social issues. She isn’t a prepper and he isn’t Gays for Gaza. Checks out. |
Megyn is much further right than JK on trans. JK is more measured and centrist. Grateful for Megyn raising awareness on this issue to her listeners even if I don’t agree with her on other issues. |
She claimed she supports positions from either side but I have never heard her support a democratic/liberal policy? She hates trans/gays. She's rabidly pro-life and supports extremist abortion laws. But she's also pro-death penalty. (For the record, I am pro-choice and pro-death penalty so at this rate I'm more bipartisan than she is lmfao). She doesn't support immigration. She is anti-vax. Like...exactly what liberal policies do you support?
She has repeatedly tried to paint herself as a centrist but she has never named a single liberal policy that she supports! |
I agree with Megyn and JK on the trans issue but Megyn is not a moderate. She's nowhere near a 6. She's maybe a 25. |
Trans and gays are different she's doesn't like the trans, gay ok |
She points out, correctly, that gays/trans is not a single issue. She is not anti-gay, or anti-trans once people are adults, but she does oppose transitioning young children and trans in sports. She also opposes young kids being influenced by things like drag queen story hour. Most of the moderate Dems I know agree. She isn’t anti-vaxx, she is anti-COVID vax for kids, which is correct now and what Europe does. She doesn’t oppose vaccines in general, like DTAP, MMR, etc. I listen to her show like twice a month, it seems fine to me. Way more moderate than the things my prepper family sends me! |
I am a moderate dem and I agree that all of those things are bad. At the same time, I have better things to do than sit around screaming about it all day and accusing any democrat of supporting transitioning for kids, which is what Megyn does. If most of the moderate dems you and I know agree, why is she acting like it's something that all Democrats support? And, for the record, she is anti-vax. She has done an entire show about how dangerous the cervical cancer vaccine is. (It is not dangerous and is recommended by ACOG, not the WHO, which I know she has issues with and agree with her on those issues) If your baseline here is your prepper family that you keep mentioning, then everyone is going to look liberal by comparison. To an average person who doesn't deal with preppers or extremists from either side, Megyn is not a moderate. She may be more moderate than your family but so is Ivanka Trump. |
I'm liberal and i'd put myself as a 3 or 4, Ronald Reagan probably at 6. Megyn is 8 or 9 on this scale. She's delusional if she thinks she's a centrist. |
What do you mean by fully vaxxed? A booster every 4-6? She doesn’t do that. Basically everyone got the first 2 and now no one is getting the rest, deal with it. |
If she doesn't oppose vaccines in general, why is she on record as saying her daughter would not receive the HPV vaccine, which is a perfectly safe childhood immunization? |
I got the first two vaccines and none of the rest and I consider Megyn an anti-vaxxer and me to not be an anti-vaxxer because I do not spend hours a week talking about how the left brainwashed me into getting vaccinated and how we need to investigate every sudden death of a vaccinated person for foul play. Which she does. Hope this helps! |
I had to take an ideological scale quiz in AP gov eons ago. Basically you filled out the quiz and it told you which politician along the political spectrum you most matched with. I got Bob Dole. I reckon that puts me at about a 6 or 7.
And yeah, Megyn and I are not the same lol. |
I haven’t heard the episode on HPV but the people I know who object to it are super left hippies. I had my sons vaccinated, but honestly don't see why we ask men to get vaccinated for something they can’t get. All vaccines have side effects, and if I had a child that reacted severely to the average vaccine I would skip it. VARS is real. |
