I'm angry that the hard fought Freedom and pursuit of Happiness is being steadily eroded by radicalized individuals who are hungry for control and power over us all, robbing this Country of it's Democracy and having twisted Fantasies of Fascist Rule being preferable. I would like to send every Fascist leaning individual to a Country that has already spend Generations under such Rule, so they get a taste of the Reality of it, rather than having their wet dreams about the Fantasy of it they imagine and isn't tethered to Reality at all.Bohemianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743017084098726581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-58094938151683848012022-05-04T09:57:49.555-05:002022-05-04T09:57:49.555-05:00Hopefully the more moderate women who vote republi...Hopefully the more moderate women who vote republican will wake up now.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-90452938199651899832022-05-04T09:57:04.368-05:002022-05-04T09:57:04.368-05:00There's been an underground movement to take o...There's been an underground movement to take over this country for decades.

Judaism is patriarchal but it does give women some rights. Christianity on the other hand doesn't recognise a woman's value beyond producing children, preferably sons, and she is supposed to be quiet and subservient. Dominionists are especially dangerous and they have been working for decades to turn this country into a theocracy. I would think the patriarchy would be more threatened by the rising power of women and our independence with the right to vote, the right to own land, the right to have a bank account and a credit card, the right to higher education, etc. Being able to control when and if we have children has helped but having children hasn't prevented us from having these other rights. But yeah, the patriarchy is definitely feeling threatened. I sincerely hope this drives the moderate conservative women away from the Republican party, at least until the Republican party becomes sane.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-40866298519403767302022-05-04T08:29:30.199-05:002022-05-04T08:29:30.199-05:00It is a mess now, isn't it?
