So sexist epithets are "argumentation" Sympthsical Aug 2023 #12

You demand I refer to someone who considers me and my politics as inferiors with respect. Kid Berwyn Aug 2023 #36
No. The demand was to not refer to her as an appendage of her husband Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #51
I know she is hard on Hillary treestar Aug 2023 #131
The point isn't her feelings. Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #132

Yeah, we don't even have to attach her to that piece of shit spouse of hers. BigDemVoter Aug 2023 #82

That is not what I said. Kid Berwyn Aug 2023 #43
To be fair, I have seen several "Uncle Tom" posts over the years AZSkiffyGeek Aug 2023 #103

Indeed obamanut2012 Aug 2023 #33
One poster said their posted agism was justified earlier in another thread. ZonkerHarris Aug 2023 #32
I saw that obamanut2012 Aug 2023 #34
wait, you actually think people call her that because they think women should change their last name prodigitalson Aug 2023 #39
Had the same reaction. BannonsLiver Aug 2023 #44
Ummm.... I didn't even imply that in any way obamanut2012 Aug 2023 #66

Agreed Red Mountain Aug 2023 #98
Thank you! Of course you are completely right. Judi Lynn Aug 2023 #144

To the extent it is relevant, it is sexist to make the connection Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #114
so if I were to say to Eva Braun...well well who do we have here, if it isn't prodigitalson Aug 2023 #115
Yes. Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #116
should I apologize to her? prodigitalson Aug 2023 #117
It is far less about the specific person you are insulting using sexist comments Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #118
you do know Hitler was, right? prodigitalson Aug 2023 #120
This isn't about Hitler. Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #123
But would it even be appropriate for Eva to complain about it (being called Mrs. Adolph Hitler) prodigitalson Aug 2023 #124
This isn't about Hitler, or Greenspan. Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #125

And is she responsible for Greenspan's policies? brooklynite Aug 2023 #90
I didn't say that. SalviaBlue Aug 2023 #92
You can do that without pretending she doesn't exist independent of her husband. Ms. Toad Aug 2023 #94
