Protest double standards
http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/30/world/ira ... index.html
Where are all the vagina hats and protests in solidarity for Iranian women?
People are dying over there in protests and women are being brave enough to challenge the oppression of women by going out uncovered.
After Trump was elected, hundreds of thousands... maybe even millions, took to the streets to "protest sexism." Equal rights and gender equality! Sexual harassment and equal pay!
Crickets now though... do Americans only support causes that affect them?
Or was that just a stunt because they were angry at the vote?

Re: Protest double standards
The womens march on washington was yet another Soros Clinton Obama smoke screen. Anything to disrupt democracy. Notice they are quiet about iran. Well they did give iran a few hundred billion . The truth is. Obama was a muslim brotherhood supporter. He was trying to turn USA into a muslim republic like Egypt or Iran.
Now they want to take our guns away . That would be just fine. Take em away from the criminals first . Ill gladly give u mine. "Charlie Daniels"

Go to the 2 minute mark. Explains a lot.

Leftists only support causes they are told to support. Basically sheep. Like these sheep at Berkeley:

Check every right wing echo chamber and this story about feminists is the hottest topic. Think it's pretty obvious who the sheep are?

yes. Leftists. Which is the point of this thread. If you want to blather on about your personal confirmation biases you've gleaned from your liberal media echo chamber, great! Start another thread instead of de-railing this one.

Re: Protest double standards
Also of note. Not one rally against all the democrats in hollywood raping women like its going out of style. No. Not hardly a mention of it in the news. Just the needed so and so accuses so and so. No end to end programming like they did to trump. No million paid marchers. Nope.

Wait, hardly a mention of it in the news? The only way you believe that truly is if you have successfully avoided all need and social media outlets every time one gets exposed.
Come quickly Jesus, we're barely holding on.

I do avoid social media. I think if they were so worried about Trump. There should be riots in Hollywood.

It is clear none of these Trump supporters ever watch the news anymore. I listen/read/watch the news every day, multiple times a day. I get my news from multiple sources, including Global, CTV, CBC, BBC, MSN (which also gives me news from multiple sources including the Canadian Press, Washington Post, New York Times, Business Insider, US News & World Report, and more) and even Castanet. Sometimes for poops and giggles I even watch Fox. Sometimes, when reading or watching the news I think about some of the comments made on these threads by certain posters and have to presume they must have stopped watching the news completely (dismissing it as “fake” and instead preferring to rely on tweats from Donald “my button is bigger” Trump). It is the only explanation for how they could be so clueless.

You steer clear of fake news by preferring fake news?
