An interesting piece of trivia about the fight for the 19th Amendment. From 1776 [View all]

to 1848--Seneca Falls-- was 72 years. From 1848 to final ratification of 19A in 1920 was 72 years. 144 years to gain some semblance of equality in this supposed "greatest, bestest country in the world" and the fucking misogynist bastards are trying to strip women of every small advance we have made toward equality and recognition as full human beings in this patriarchal society. We are regressing and devolving as other nations are progressing and evolving. FUCK the misogynists. FUCK the woman-haters. FUCK the "christian" nationalist talibangelicals. SIDEWAYS. WITH RUSTY CHAINSAWS.
