The Democrats Hate and Demonize Men Until The Party Needs Their Vote
Self-hating cucks for Kamala!
Liberals are winding down election season doing what they do best: lecturing and finger-wagging at voters with the message that they must support the Democrats despite the party doing absolutely nothing to earn their vote, and forcing yet another establishment-friendly candidate with zero organic support down their throats.
This is nauseating enough, except now the Democrats are targeting a demographic that they have spent the overwhelming majority of the last decade vilifying and discriminating against at every turn: men.
In the past few months, the party’s media goons have churned out scads of op-eds and painfully corny YouTube clips exhorting those vile penis-havers to “suck it up” and support the astroturfed campaign of Kamala Harris, usually with the deeply insulting implication that the only reason one would not vote for convictionless careerist Kamala is out of some deep-seated fear of women. In another supremely cynical move, vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, a patronizing token selection both for his identity and his supposed working class bona fides, has been part of a liberal media campaign to promote the idea of “positive masculinity,” an alternative to the omnipresent “toxic masculinity” framing, which has typically been the only way liberals refer to masculinity at all. Of course, if one digs the tiniest bit beneath the surface, “positive masculinity” essentially dictates that men shut up, expect nothing for themselves, and dutifully follow the orders of women and the Democrats. It’s the same system of subjugation with slightly friendlier messaging.
At this point, I do not need to make the case that Democrats, liberals, and their posturing fake-leftist allies despise and discriminate against men. I have done so many times already. I have screamed about the injustice and scapegoating done to me and scores of other men by the liberal media, only for said media to sheepishly sweep the scandal under the rug, as bootlicking progressives watched on and engaged in loathsome denialism if anyone objected or sought to bring attention to it.
A few weeks ago, I cast my vote for Jill Stein. I mentioned this on Twitter/X just before the VP debate, and was swarmed by a bunch of brainwashed libs asserting without evidence that she is a Russian asset. Can’t say I was surprised - as always, anything Democrats don’t like is Russia, or was secretly done by Russia, even if they can’t explain how.
Frankly, even if it comes out that Stein received a suitcase full of cash from Vladimir Putin himself, I wouldn’t give a shit. I don’t have any allegiance to Stein, and the best thing I can say about her is at least she is speaking out about what Israel is doing. That liberals have a misplaced grudge against her for 2016 is a sweet little bonus as well. My vote was purely a fuck-you to both “sides” of the corporate duopoly, but especially the Democrats.
There is no reasonable person in the world who would blame me for voting against the Dems.
I will admit that in my rage, there were days I was convinced that I would vote for Trump. I came much closer than I ever thought I would. I reside in Virginia, which is probably a safe win for Kamala, so even if I betrayed whatever principle to back Trump to satiate my anger or get some small measure of revenge, I could’ve rationalized it as ultimately harmless. And yet I didn’t, for these and a few other reasons:
Trump’s blind support for Israel
The fact that we already know Trump’s M.O. as president. Despite all the spiky rhetoric, he mainly governs as a generic Republican, passing tax cuts for the wealthy.
I’m sure Trump is lying about not being on board with Project 2025, even though I seriously doubt the GOP has the discipline and ability to enact it. For what it’s worth, I despise the shitlib administrative state enough that the prospect of demolishing it is not a persuasive scare tactic for me, even if the Republicans would almost certainly replace it with something just as bad, if not worse.
The fact that many Trump supporters were as mean-spirited and malicious about The Shitty Media Men List as any media lib. And why wouldn’t they be? It was “the left” eating its own. Don’t think I forgot that Mike Cernovich was one of the figures responsible for it getting leaked to the public and weaponizing it, even if it’s clear that’s what the bigoted female chauvinists behind it were seeking all along.
MAGA types pretended to be against the excesses of MeToo until it was clear Trump was going to be the nominee again, making it so they didn’t want to draw attention to his many allegations and misdeeds. Back in March of this year, Tara Reade commented that House Republicans, who were initially supportive of her and willing to let her testify under oath about her allegation against Joe Biden, had suddenly backed off and gone quiet for reasons unclear. I think we all know what happened.
As much as I don’t agree with my parents’ politics, I know it would deeply wound my mother in particular if I voted for Trump. She might have a clear case of Trump Derangement Syndrome - to the point that family members have had to beg her not to force him into every conversation - but she’s still my mom. My family has shown remarkably little sympathy (in some cases outright cruelty) for what has happened to me - and that too almost drove me to Trump. Part of that is because they’re various flavors of callous centrists and my mom has become a Cable News Boomer in her retirement years. Anytime I go over to their home, there’s CNN or MSNBC playing around the clock. It takes a lot of restraint not to scream, “How can you ingest this insulting propaganda all day? Especially knowing what these lizards have done to your son?” I don’t need to delve any further into family dynamics, but ultimately I decided it wasn’t worth inflicting that much distress on her, all for some pointless revenge vote. As it is, she won’t be thrilled that I voted for Stein. In 2000, the first election I could cast a vote, I supported Ralph Nader, and for the last 20+ years anytime she is reminded of that, she intones, “the spoilerrrrrr.” Well, mom, they wouldn’t be spoilers if the evil sellout losers you support did, well… anything.


my plan is same as always with my very similar parents: have a firm policy of never disclosing my vote, and changing the subject *immediately*
also MSNBC is just as gross brainrot as Fox, my father-in-law who is an otherwise fun and thoughtful guy even at 70 just melts into a puddle of drool every morning and night with that network in the background.
