Basically the entire list is a fucking joke. Recognizing men is pretty weird but recognizing these particular men just tells me the people in charge of the award are clowns.

This is literally the exact plot to an episode of Parks and Rec. The only difference is that Ron Swanson is a good guy who actually respects women.

"Everything I do is the attitude of an award winner, because I've won an award."

Whoever determines awardees must be a MAGAt. Everyone on that list besides Martha Stewart is a hard-right fucko who is against everything RBG advocated for through her life.

Not even as #SpaceKaren is this at all appropriate.

Ew, what? Ew.

Appropriate for an award named after someone partially responsible for the current state of the Supreme court. She should have retired during the Obama administration.

It's wild that some people would throw RGB under the bus rather than admit Left infighting in 2016 was a historic mistake.

[–] Glytch 1 points 7 months ago

You calling Democrats "Left" is all I need to know about your political education.

But, yes, sand bagging Sanders and promoting a 90's Era Republican woman (not saying she was a Republican in the 90's, just that her policies were those of the 90's Era GOP) instead was a huge mistake, as was RBG not retiring when there was a chance to replace her with someone progressive instead of what we got.

Ron Swanson already did it.

On the other hand, it is someone who doesn't know how to quit while they're ahead, thinks they're better than everyone, and is largely detached from the day-to-day realities of the common person soooooo
