    The notion that the left and elites are trying to manufacture outrage over trans people being hated and targeted for example is stupid given that it is the right that constantly spams this content and the right in almost every legislature at nearly every level in America is spamming anti-trans content is absurd.

    The reality is corporations like Disney are glad your idols and your team of anti-wokeists are transferring hatred of class issues and economic system issues like monopoly practices to hatred of absolutely bat **** petty insane turd sandwich that is the culture wars.

    You have your people spamming hatred of a ****ing trans person on a ****ing aluminum can rather than the monopoly practices of Anheuser-Busch. It's a joke. This whole thing is a joke.

    Woke means you make a Scooby doo show without Scooby and you race swap all the white people
    @Xerobull

    woke means you are so uncreative that you can write a script for like 5 years about a black vampire killer who already has tons of stories written for decades
    @AroundTheWorld

    woke means you think draymond green should be the next elf in the lord of the rings
    And that King Kong should be played by a real chimpanzee cause it’s racist that an expensive computer is playing him in a movie

    reviewing a DEI strategic plan for my department as we speak, it has probably a dozen pages of comments from students, staff, grad students, and faculty attached as an appendix. Actually pretty remarkable how often the term "woke" is used by students (presumably mostly grad students, although hard to tell for sure) . . . not sure I expected that given the tenor of the discussions here and the idea that "woke" has been captured by the far right. Clearly that hasn't happened where I live

    Yup.

    I don't believe her, and i have heard some women say it is creepy - whatever, she can carry tampons if she wants to, for whatever reason she wants to. There have been some shortages of tampons because of this type of thing, but it will all even out.

    They want Mulvaney to be popular so they can rage that transgendered and woke people are taking over the USA. It is self-fulfilling.

    Mulvaney isn’t really a trans person , he’s just a gay dude playing trans
    Think Martin Lawrence’s Shanaynay
    He’s there for the fame and money

    I don't know if she really is transgendered or not - she has had surgery and has never claimed she isn't transgendered. I take her at her word.

    What I can say is that she is incredibly insulting and patronizing of females - as she doesn't act like a female, but she acts like toxic stereotypes of women perpetrated by the patriarchy.

    There any many women who act like the toxic stereotypes of women perpetrated by the patriarchy. Are those women are not incredibly insulting and patronizing of females? Why don't they get judged?

    Mulvaney probably has a ton of psychological issues. Most transgender people do. And if you spent your life growing up in a conservative family in her predicament it may certainly lead to a lot of weird behavior.

    Regardless, I don't get why people care. Why she has to live up to a different standard as a transgender woman compared to a cis woman doesn't make sense to me, but I guess everyone is free to criticize and certainly people can ask her that question.

    I have never seen or known a female that has been as stereotypical and toxic as Mulvaney.

    If you are asking if cis-females that exhibit a lot of toxic sterotypes of the patriarchy, the answer is yes they do often by other females.


    Agreed.

    Who said she has to live up to a different standard? That is a red herring in this case.

    You don't think women who get boob jobs and act like bimbos are toxic? Girls who act dumb just for the approval of guys? C'mon, we've met a lot of people who are like this - they created these toxic stereotypes to begin with - both men and women.

    I haven't watched a lot of Mulvaney, but I can't imagine she is worse than the Chrissy Snow's of 3's company.

    You asked if women like that (bimbo) get judged - and my answer was and is, yes they do get judged.

    Is Mulvaney a worse walking stereotype than Chrissy Snow (who wasn’t a real person - I would say yes). Mulvaney, whether she is aware she is doing it or not, is playing a toxic stereotype of what being a woman really is.

    I can see why a lot of females dislike her. She isn’t bringing positive attention to women.

    People don't have to like someone who acts like a bimbo or whatever reasons. But I do think people have to respect that a woman has a right to be whatever kind of woman they want to be - bimbo or not.

    My point is that if she wasn't transgender but still acted the way she does, I don't think she's be taking heat any more than 80% of those instamodels.

    First they tell Latinos some fake word to describe Latinos

    Now they are telling Egyptians that Queen Cleopatra was Black like Janet Jackson

    Wokes aren't part of that Rhythm Nation
