Unfortunately, there's a lot of truth to this.
It's a societal and cultural problem where males bend over backwards to enable female's delusions in order to get laid.

Republican women: dehumanizing themselves to pwn the libs since Reagan.
Ok, i would like Americans to guess what approximate percentage of the venezuelan population WANTED to vote against Maduro on last ellections.
first they came for so called dems and liberals, then they came for poc, and then lgbtq+ and i never spoke up on all those 3 times, then they came for us, republican woman, there was no one left.
in hindsight, republican woman are losing thier seats/elections to republican men and the shrinking amount of GOP woman in congress is only going to get worst.
Project 2025 will create the Christian Taliban. I highly doubt the dumb fuck female MAGA voters will realize what they voted for.
Some of them are stupid enough to want it.
Some of them want to be subservient. I've heard some even lament voting before. The Christian brainwashing is pervasive to all parts of life.
Under his eye
My prediction for a future military incel recruitment poster:
Join the America Russia North Korea (ARNK) alliance in our war against the WOKE DEI Euro Chinese Soros COMMUNIST SCOURGE and you will be guaranteed a VIRGIN wife! ENLIST TODAY!
Shorten it to just ARK and it will be even more on the nose with a biblical reference!
Heinlein couldn’t have written it better.
I can't help but think of how this cartoon from the beginning of November got it completely backward
Eh not really getting the idea across:
looking for this?
Ah yes, that sends the right mix of feelings.
True, all humans are like children. Maybe AI should take over.
Surviving humans, take note:
Per Syndicate rules, subsection 543 of the Precious Elemental Reserves Code, having failed to file a proper appeal for mineral and elemental rights within 50 solars of first contact, your planet has been successfully seized and is currently being mined of all requested elemental deposits by the assigned planetary regent.
Every interior of your world has been crushed and all raw materials-organic and inanimate-are in the process of being mined for the requested elements.
Per the Mined Material Reclamation Act along with subsection 35 of the Indigenous Planetary Species Protection Act, any surviving humans will be given the opportunity to reclaim their lost matter. The Borant Corporation, having been assigned regency over this solar system, is allowed to choose the manner of this reclamation, and they have chosen option 3, also known as the 18-Level World Dungeon. The Borant Corporation retains all rights to broadcast, exploit, and otherwise control all aspects of the World Dungeon and will remain in control as long as they adhere to Syndicate regulations regarding world resource reclamation.
Upon successful completion of level 18 of the World Dungeon, regency of this planet will revert to the successor.
A Syndicate neutral observer AI-myself-has been created and dispatched to this planet to supervise the creation of the World Dungeon and to ensure all the rules and regulations are properly followed.
Please pay careful attention to the following information as it will not be repeated.
Per the Indigenous Planetary Species Protection Act, all remaining materials-estimated to be 99.999999% of the sifted matter-is currently being repurposed for the subterranean World Dungeon. The first level of this dungeon will open approximately 18 seconds after the end of this announcement. The first-level entrances will be open for exactly one human hour and one hour only. Once the entrances are closed, you may no longer enter. If you enter, you may not leave until you have either completed all 18 levels of the World Dungeon or if you meet certain other requirements.
What if wanting to believe that there is some nice place that good people go when they die, leads people to support the mass murder and immiseration of countless women, children, queer people and BIPOC?
Religion is, and probably always has been a means of control. That's not to say that it is that at every level, or that it's only that. Religion is designed to bring you comfort and assistance in your times of need, while charging you a fee for the service. The business has to run, the staff and bills have to be paid, the top officers need to be fabulously wealthy. Not all religions are against Women, Children, BIPOC, and LGBTQ, but if you're trying to exert control, they make easy scapegoats. White men make all the money, Let us hold down all these minorities so you can smother them to make yourself feel better, now pay us.
One of my friends attends and assists with a great little church. It's a small, modest community church. The pastor is gay, and drag queens come to read stories occasionally. The place is just kept up with. They're not squeezing 30% out of the community. I'm not one for church, but I approve of what they're doing wholly.
Religion takes the best parts of human nature, and convinces people that these things come from some big other, who is always watching and judging us. It turns us inside out, and the world upside down. I don't get mad at god or judge people for being religious but anything that convinces good people that they are fundamentally evil is itself the opposite of goodness.
It is absolutely a method of control, its no coincidence that the emergence of basically all the major religions coincides with the rise of class domination.
"With or without religion, good people would do good and bad people would do evil. But to make good people do evil takes religion."
I also try not to judge people simply for being religious, but it's pretty damn hard when it's the direct cause of their affirmative stance on things like anti-vax, anti-abortion, anti-contraception, anti-science etc.
Of course there are people with those stances who aren't religious at all too, but they do seem to be in the minority.
I know a couple people who swear that religion turned their life around. I swear they're the nicest most pleasant people I know. They claim that when they were teenagers they were consistently stealing things and breaking into places and it wasn't until they found God that they stopped.
The one guy was a little more analytical than the other guy. He looked me dead in the eye and said I don't know that God is up there watching, But I do know that in the time when I needed somebody to be watching, I felt he was and I made better decisions.
Now, I think that this is an outlier case but I'm apprehensive to just completely discount religion even though I know in all cases it's control. A lot of churches do have reasonable positive outreach for the money. Of course for each one of those you've got another church out there really everybody for 30% in no matter what their situation is.
I really understand that it is a nuanced issue, people are extremely intricate and surprising creatures. People have a way of taking the worst circumstances and making them wonderful. If a little God makes your life better, fucking go for it. My granddad, one of the sweetest most caring men I ever met, his final words were, "God in heaven..." And then He passed. At which point it doesn't matter if heaven is a "real" place, it is real because it is real to people who believe in it. On the other hand, many atheists are insufferable and just as ignorant and entrenched in their negative belief as the worst religious people can be. I've studied religions and was deeply Catholic until I was about 30, so like 15 years ago. I love to discuss theology. Personally I read the Tao te Ching and it helps me connect with my spirit, and I want others to have that, whether it comes from religion or music or just other people.
But the parts that are a mechanism of control are just too ingrained into it. I believe in freedom and human self-creation. If religion helps you accomplish that, go for it: praise Jesus, God is Great. But if it doesn't, then to the extent that it actively prohibits this then it is to that extent that I oppose it. Sometimes its a little, sometimes its a lot.
Religion also conditions you to out source your moral judgements. This allows someone to use their authority to convince people of immoral things.
Totally agree, but why is your username the noise made by my old 28.8k modem?
Damn, it gets worse every week
Imagine how little self-respect you'd have to have to be a woman and vote Republican.
Well, if we stopped babying women and treated them like adults, then maybe this would seem more farfetched.
Unfortunately, most women think being treated as an adult is being "unfair" to them because they're so used to being treated like children.
Well surely it was never going to affect them. They are one of the good ones, it's the others that need to be controlled. Why would they ever come for me if I am living a proper God fearing life?
Making sure that women have very little self-respect is one of the primary functions of American Evangelicalism.
They unironically think Harris was some kind of monster and that it was all worth it to keep trans out of sports.
This isn't a leaopards eating faces thing for republican women. These women derive social, economic, and political benefits through their association with the men who hold power in our patriarchal system. By aligning with backwards gender roles or evil ideologies, they feel protected and valued within the system even as it restricts their autonomy. They know what they're doing.
I read years ago that white republican women will put up with being treated as lesser in their circles in order to treat others as lesser. So they're fine with being spoken down to and shuffled aside so they can feel free to yell at minorities.
