Summary
Donald Trump’s re-election has fueled a surge in misogynistic, homophobic, and racist rhetoric among young men, reportedly emboldened by the president-elect’s history of inflammatory remarks about women.
In schools, boys have been caught using phrases like “your body, my choice” against female peers, prompting districts like Minnesota’s Hopkins Public Schools to issue warnings to parents about harassment.
The impact extends beyond schools, with activists on Texas State University’s campus displaying signs asserting that “women are property.”
This hostile climate has left many women feeling unsafe as a new far-right administration takes power.
Weren’t the Gilead states [1] already doing measures like that under Biden? I thought people (sheriffs, deputies, “concerned” citizens) were watching certain roads that led to free states like Colorado.
[1] I still chuckle at a certain poster on Denver Post forums that would whine every single time I used that phrase, claiming there was no such thing. I’d ask him if he didn’t think his own con movement and Republican Party weren’t striving for exactly that kind of treatment. He never had an answer of course. But he’d go whining to the mods about it and how unfair it was to point out their own agenda.
