This place has got some serious right wing nut job vibes.

    Oh they think they’re being so very clever not saying specifically that they want to repeal women’s right to vote.

      Yes it’s a about erasing women from the thought process regarding the 19th amendment.

      Human rights are indelible. They exist as something you really are entitled to by virtue of the fact that you exist as a human being.

      That said, legal rights which is what we discuss here, have only ONLY ever happened after a fight. No shit. All of them only come to us after a fight. Look up the history of the 19th. It almost didn’t happen. It wasn’t easy. It wasn’t a forgone conclusion. You need to realize that, internalize that, to fully understand what we are talking about here. None of this is something that cannot be legally ripped from us.

        Fully agree. It’s terrifying to see our rights slowly eroding before our very eyes, rights that our mothers and grandmothers fought for not long ago. We can’t be complacent.

        It’s definitely satire. Wanting to take away single men’s right to vote and ending with Trump’s sign off are obvious giveaways.

        It reads like satire, but there is a real faction that are trying to repeal the 19th amendment.

          Oh absolutely, but I haven’t seen people sincerely saying the way to remedy it is by removing single men’s suffrage. The vibe I got was that this was using the real opinions and arguments of the people who oppose women’s suffrage then humorously turning it on its head by arguing against men’s suffrage, which is an equally reasonable (completely unreasonable to be exact) remedy to the arguments as what those people will claim.

        Being in the platform it’s not.

        It’s a shame this cesspool is the only place to get tech industry tea.

          LinkedIn should be destroyed for the blight that it is on working people, but strawmanning the obvious, self-conflicting satire is not the move

        Won’t someone think of the poor, single men who can’t vote for their whole family?! /s
