"And so women are treated as hate objects, of course, in that discourse, and that discourse has become mainstream and is certainly a key part of the Republican Party today."

(continued from /10) "that the women’s only place is in making babies to replace the race essentially; that they shouldn’t have a voice within the white supremacist community; and that feminism itself is part of the problem and part of the reason why this 'great replacement theory' is working."

"One of the really interesting things in the research that I’ve done on the neo-Nazi community, white supremacist community, is the way that they linked anti-feminism to their neo-Nazi and white supremacist ideals. If you go back to Daily Stormer in 2014, 2015, they’re saying arguments about anti-feminism as being essential to understanding white supremacy;" (continued in /11)

"There’s a really smart researcher on authoritarianism, Karen Stenner, and she had retweeted that—what she said was, Pay attention to how he says the word women. And if you listen to it, it’s really interesting because of so much visceral anger and hatred just dripping off of his tongue as he says the word women. That’s very indicative of Trump’s approach to women in general."

"Despite best practices, despite all of the consultants opinions, Donald Trump is fearlessly being misogynistic. I don’t know if that message is going to convince any women to vote for him, but it certainly will resonate with men."

Brutal New Ad Nukes Trump—With His Own Ugly, Hateful Attacks on Women
As Kamala Harris hits Trump hard over his misogyny, a scholar of political communications explains how Harris is tapping into a level of cultural energy among women we are underestimating.The New Republic
“'It’s really hard to know that there are men out there who want to vote against reproductive rights, even though they shouldn’t have a say in it at all,' Casey, who voted for Harris, said. She doesn’t think she could date someone who doesn’t share her views again. 'As a political science major, I made a decision that I don’t want to put myself in that position.'”

"The media have obsessed over Black people and Latinos turned off by Harris and various other #Demsindisarray narratives. The enthusiasm of women for Harris is a storyline that has been entirely unexplored."
~ Michael Tomasky
Hmm. Wonder why that would be? What is it about the media (and who owns and controls the media?) that would cause the media to ignore this? (/s)

"THE 'GENDER GAP' MATH IS UNDER-APPRECIATED in coverage of the race. More women will likely show up to vote than they did in 2020, and they will be supporting Harris more than they did Biden four years ago. Trump may be making gains with men. But he’s going to have to turn out a lot more of them if he wants to keep up."

"Because what Trump has to offer men is permission to hate women. Those women.
And the terms of that hate are not 'Women are taking away our precious cultural ideas about manhood!'. It’s pretty much 'Women are taking our jobs and our social power, women are doing better at most of what we have done, women are—without any malice or plan—unveiling the many cases where men have risen to the top on nothing more than mediocrity & a pair of testicles.'"
"So many of the feeder streams into Trumpism well up from springs of reaction to changes in the status of women. Dobbs has made it plain that anti-abortion sentiment is primarily about control of women. Its supporters are indifferent to women dying, women risking death, women enduring pregnancy after rape."

MAGA Men Are Freaking Out Over Their Wives Secretly Voting for Harris
Fox News’s Jesse Watters is the latest to have a full-blown meltdown over the possibility of his wife voting for Kamala Harris.The New Republic
"FOX News has been losing their collective minds over the ad [by at Vote Common Good telling women they have a right to vote for whom they choose without their husbands instructing them] — accusing Harris of encouraging women to lie to their spouses and equating the wives who vote for Harris with those who commit adultery."

"In the last two days, you may have noticed a strange uptick in right-wing commentators talking about Harris’s 'attack' on the 'sanctity of marriage.' There’s been a bit of a buzz about conservative white women voting for Harris secretly — breaking with their faith communities and perhaps even their husbands to cast a vote against Donald Trump."

"Donald Trump, mind you, has been found civilly responsible for rape. He has been accused by multiple women of rape (including his ex-wife Ivana), of sexual assault, of groping. He has bragged about grabbing women by the pussy without asking. He has bragged about being the reason Dobbs was overturned. Because he is the reason Dobbs was overturned."

"As the fantasy of strongman rule fades into everyday dictatorship, people realize that they need things like water or schools or Social Security checks. Insofar as such goods are available under a dictatorship, they come with a moral as well as a financial price. When you go to a government office, you will be expected to declare your personal loyalty to the strongman."

"Quite a few Americans like the idea of strongman rule. Why not a dictator who will get things done? ...
Strongman rule is a fantasy. Essential to it is the idea that a strongman will be your strongman. He won't. …
Unaccountable to the law and to voters, the dictator has no reason to consider anything beyond his own personal interests."

"Many potential Trump voters are probably unaware of what’s in store and imagine that Trump would just snap his fingers and 'fix' what he insists is a terrible economy. The reality, however, is that America’s economic performance under the Biden-Harris administration has been very good, especially compared with that of other countries."

"And if Trump wins? He and the people around him have already told us what they will do.

"With just a few days to go, let me step back and make the case, once again, for why Trump’s language, and Trump’s propaganda, matter so much. Do note that, despite the criticism, it has not stopped.

[MAGA men furious that their wives may vote independently of their control] want marriage to be an inherently unequal relationship with a subordinate wife and an entitled husband, a cozy little authoritarian regime at home."
