    The thing is: you don’t have to be misogynistic. She’s a Nazi, there’s plenty of other things you can demean her on without using language that broadly stereotypes everyone, or at least that group.

    I get where you’re coming from, and I don’t think I’ll change your mind, but that language is not partisan (for lack of a better word). It might hurt the women standing against you, but it also hurts the women standing with you.

    And just to be sure: You’re using bimbo to be hurtful, not because you believe bimbos are less than, right? Because that would be fucked if you wholesale discount bimbos simply because of what they are.

      So I actually don’t use the term “bimbo,” and never have. I’m not misogynist; just somewhat of the opinion that it should be open-season on Nazis. As in, “anything goes.”

      I don’t want to offend people that aren’t Nazis however. It’s unfortunate that someone might interpret a slur directed at someone else as a slur directed at oneself; but I get it.

      In my lexicon, I have a lot of words I’d use for Noem. “Bimbo” would not be on the list in normal circumstances.

        Hell yeah. I guess we’ll just be two different side of the coin, because your anger and frustration are valid. It might be chaotic, but it’s still “good”. lol
