responding to that other post about scientists and impending global warming being ignored?

Anyone want to create an "intersectional" link between women's movement and planetary science denial.

Let's save the planet AND our rights.

Don't get all defensive.

But without a doubt, our best chance to thrash the GOP lies with women voters. You know this.

FYI: I'm a guy.

You believe that promoting one voter block is an implicit denial of another voter block? That's, well... without logic or merit, and seems rooted in a defensive bias.

Everybody's a little on edge, what with the fascist like voter suppression efforts and Republicans putting sex offenders on the Supreme Court and the world being 12 years away from an environmental meltdown...

I'm sure after we get a government that wants to fix problems instead of creating new distractions, everyone will chill out a bit

You were able to get a credit card, support yourself without having to depend on a man, buy a car? There were laws that protected you against being raped and/or beaten by your husband? You were considered enough of an adult to be control when and how you would become a mother?

I could go on. You weren't really treated very well at all.

If you didn't know that, now you do.

Also, I find it funny that you have grabbed, erroneously, onto that one part of my post and seem to discount the many other examples I gave of women being horrendously treated in the 50s.

Hi there! I created this meme, never expecting it would take off (you can find the original on my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10156804496563069&set=a.63677658068&type=3&theater). It came to my attention that some other person was profiting from it through t-shirt sales. I figured if folks were willing to buy it, I'd rather have the funds go for something I support... so the t-shirt is now available with 100% of proceeds going to Emily's List

Stay strong and GOTV!
