Yeah, I mean I make fun of conservative Republicans on the daily but lately I have been thinking a lot about why Sarah Palin is the laughing stock of the country when she’s been out of the news in ages and countless dudes say the same problematic and ignorant shit on the news all god damn day but don’t get the same level criticism. Is it a difference in what they are saying/how they are saying is… or is it that we already assume women are stupid and dont take them as seriously so its easier for us to make her a punch line?
(Also, I’m not saying she isnt wrong about most things because she is.)
