When Did A Tampon Become A Nightmare?
by Noah
What is it about Republican men that makes them more especially prone to losing their shit and getting all queasy about anything, and I mean anything, to do with the personal health and hygiene of women? Case in point is their current ridiculous uproar over VP candidate Governor Tim Walz making sure that the schoolgirls of Minnesota have access to tampons in Minnesota school restrooms. Shock! Horror!!!! The stuff of Republican nightmares!!!! As it is now, you can take any two Republican men, let's just call them, say, Thomas and Alito, or Trump and Vance, or, Hannity and Watters, and, when it comes to this subject, they suddenly become 11 year old versions of Beavis and Butthead, calling Walz Tampon Tim as if it's a bad thing. Donnie Beavis and J.D. Butt-head? That kinda has a ring to it.
Stolen documents and national secrets in the bathroom? No problem! But tampons? In the school bathroom??!!?? Can't the girls just run home for a few days, or, ask a teacher for one, even if it's a male teacher? You know what's coming next from the GOP, aka America's Taliban, don't ya? Some wackjob Republican congressman or judge somewhere is out there and is only moments away from asking why girls are even in school in the first place. It's a mindset thing. The conservative mind will always just keep on pushing against the rest of us and they'll push us right back into the darkest of dark ages if enough of us don't wake the hell up and stop them. And where we are now, right now, is bad enough. Repugs are all weird little small-minded nazi freaks who whine about normal decent people being woke woke woke. If not, they've already been banished from the party. That friend or family member you think isn't like that? Just wait. When that red armband comes in the mail, they'll race to put it on with pride. These people aren't hiding what they are inside anymore. How else do you think Trump got nominated for president not once, not twice, but a third time.
Believe them when they show us what they are. Republicans have their priorities: Gooey orange freak that's a traitor? Good. Schoolgirl in need of a tampon? Bad. I mean; "Shouldn't they be pregnant all the time anyway? Isn't that all they're good for?" Even 10 year olds? Bonus points if it's a rapist baby? Even more bonus points if it's incestuous? There's a big chunk of the Republican Party platform right there. I can just see Mosow Mitch and his buddy Vlad having a great laugh over all of this at dinner in the Kremlin while Sean Hannity eagerly waits outside for his talking points. And, Harlan Crow's or Peter Thiel's jet is all gassed up, ready to whisk him back to FOX's New York studios.
Yeah. All true.
So... why is it that these guys could actually win another election?
There are always a minority who are misanthropic haters. But only in this shithole can they be ELECTED to become the dictatorial party. Maybe THAT ought to be explored?
