We need to have a discussion about the absolute asshole misogynists (and conservatives/libertarians) that got labeled as progressive simply because they like/supported Bernie Sanders.*
*this is not a critique of Bernie Sanders - it’s a critique of the (mostly) cis white dudes who clearly don’t give a fuck about anyone but themselves and what they “deserve” because they’re used to being #1
these Twitter Bernie Supporters were given SO MUCH LEEWAY in their ableism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, and misogyny simply because they claimed to have “voted for Bernie. It’s bullshit and it’s always been bullshit.

I know y’all think I’m “above” this but I am truly not. I will never EVER get over how bad conservatives are at haircare, hair color, and a decent haircut.
conservative women all pretty much look the same because their idea of beauty is long curled hair and a very specific makeup look made to make them look as “feminine” as possible. There’s no style or individuality - just cookie cutter ideals of what it means to be attractive.
