THREAD: "Michigan Witches Against Patriarchy" rally in Lansing to call for an END to "abusive language" & "attacks on fem elected officials" (Gov Whitmer, AG Nessel & SOS Benson and others) by #MIGOP misogynists Shirkey & Weiser.
Statement @Eclectablog👉 eclectablog.com/2021/04/michig…
The #MiWAP #Lansing #Protest is about Republican MEN (recently @RonaldWeiser @MIGOP Chair & @SenMikeShirkey) & ON-GOING use of "Patriarchal Violence" & verbal assaults on women in leadership & #MILeg.
READ @BarbByrum's "Misogyny in Michigan" @Eclectablog👇
What's "Patriarchal Violence" (PV) and why is it dangerous to ALL Michiganders, not just women in politics? It's hate, oppression, and growing.

"Patriarchal Violence (PV) is an interconnected system of institutions, practices, policies, beliefs, and behaviors that harm, undervalues, and terrorize girls, women, femme, intersex, gender non-conforming, LGBTQ, and other gender-oppressed people in our communities."-@SPLCenter
In Lansing, and the Michigan Republican Party (PV is bipartisan tho), as one former politician put it: "The abhorrent treatment of women is literally built right into the building."
Sen Shirkey is one of the #MIGOP #MILeg "leaders" who needs to STOP it.
Mike Shirkey, who likes to quip about "spanking" or having "fistfights" w women he can't defeat politically, is a self-proclaimed Christian™ "Free Methodist".
What does @SenMikeShirkey's CHURCH say about his misogyny? Gender equality? #MIGOP #WaronWomen

You see St. Shirkey's problem isn't w @GovWhitmer (superhero), @DanaNessel & @JocelynBenson (her able Lt's) it's w HIMSELF & WHO he claims to be.
