On Misogyny
While I didn't support Gillard's political assassination of Kevin Rudd, there's no denying that misogyny played a big part in her ultimate downfall.
Similarly, even those who don't particularly love Hillary need to keep in mind that misogyny is raising its ugly head, and Gillard's speech could easily be translated to the U.S., with Trump playing the role of Abbott.
