  So, the Womens March ... What Is It For?

  by Simon in

  it seems like mobilizing after the election, which seems pointless.

  i keep hearing demands for equal rights but don't understand what rights they are missing exactly.. normally a march is to show the support (and potential votes) for a cause, but ... votes for what?

  ... and the election happened already.. is anyone else confused?

  DOC the excuses are astounding. I didn't support Bill either. I didn't talk like that in gym, on the golf course nor have I heard it in person. I'm in my 40's and have heard some shitty stuff but nothing like what he said he did. Let's remember he was talking about what he did. There are also other things he has been caught up in that show by his actions that he is a womanizing misogynistic pig.

  Do you have daughters? If so I feel sorry for them to have a father that defends this the way you are is deplorable.

  my support is with the marchers in washington and around the country today.

  i was raised through my formative years by my mother and sister while my father was out of the picture.

  they gave me the compassion i have today.

  DOC do you have actual statistics or just your gut feeling. Things have improved. However if you only get your information from T.V. than you will only see the bad. As the news media puts it "if it bleeds it leads".

  DOC how sad. You truly believe that is what today is about. The bumper sticker mentality on full display by you. One of the many things wrong with my American culture that got this clown into office.

  Simon I agree with your assessment of putting your hands over your ears. However I don't see bohm doing that here. Stating that many of trumps voters are uninformed does not negate the current problem on the left.

  It is appearing to me that you are the one that is being dogmatic here. If one doesn't focus on the regressives only they are wrong, wrong, wrong, and everything else contributes to Trump being re-elected in four years. I fear this very dogmatism will continue to strengthen the regressives and keep secularist values as a minority in this country.

  I thought I would start a new post about Trumps Inaugural Address. Has anyone here seen "The New Pope"? Jude Law gave a stirring performance playing the pope. His first address was dark, condemnatory, at night, and with lightning striking at the end. I immediately thought of it when hearing trumps address. Has anyone else seen this, or have their own comparison?

  Bohm does have the right to label them for it. His label can be wrong but he has the right.

  Simon have you ever been assaulted or raped by a superior? I doubt it. I haven't either so all we have to go by is what the historical evidence indicates. One name comes to mind Bill Cosby. Where there's smoke there's fire.

  SBF - agreed.

  Simon I already agreed with you about the regressives. I also acknowledged that there are those going to this march with the wrong intentions. Yet there are those going with just intent. Movements are born this way. I for one agree with this march in principal and function. I also believe those who mock and ridicule it do more harm to the overall cause than the regressives as it empowers them on the left.

  Simon you are right it is to bad for all of us. Trump is winning the media battle by being a demagogic bully. He alienates his own intelligence agency in the process as well.

  Who knows what's to come. My sense is if this interaction is any indication that we all will continue to lose. We can't even have a day to back Women. Trump has assaulted half of our population and here we are fighting over semantics amongst ourselves.

  Simon when it comes to trumps stance on women I'm referring to who he is and what he's capable of. His stance on women is obvious to women that are not directed by their religious husbands what to think. I'm not speaking fiction here. I'm speaking to what I know many women are afraid of losing. They have been abused in the workplace for most of the time they have been there. Trump has abused his status, as acknowledged by him.
