"I love you ... man?"
The simple notion of gender continues to befuddle the Left
Ever since the alphabet mafia (LGBTQ plus other random letters) hijacked the Democrat party’s agenda, the Left has no idea where it stands on the issue of gender. The “MeToo” movement was supposed to keep Brett Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court bench. When that failed, Democrats turned to other insane strategies: putting tampons in boys bathrooms, allowing weak and unathletic boys to play sports against girls, and telling kindergarteners they can select their gender.
At some point, a smart person must have convinced one of his friends in the Democrat party that these behaviors would kill their chances of attracting male voters. Democrats’ response? Never fear! We’ll just call our pals in the legacy media!
On September 13, USA Today ran a story with the following headline: “Campaigning for wife Kamala Harris, Doug Emhoff embodies (and redefines) masculinity.”
Most readers thought it was odd to define masculinity via a man who cheated on his first wife and impregnated their nanny. Shortly after the story ran, allegations surfaced that Emhoff, in front of witnesses at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, slapped one of his ex-girlfriends so hard that she was physically spun around. Assaulting a woman in public seemed like another odd way to define masculinity, but the logic of the Lunatic Left is a strange and curious thing.
Once the Doug Emhoff Manhood Experiment went down in flames, Democrats shifted their efforts to vice presidential nominee Tim Walz. Framing Walz as manly is a virtually impossible task, given his nickname (Tampon Tim) and decidedly non-masculine mannerisms (spastic leg kicking, floppy-wristed clapping).
Undeterred, the Harris campaign created several photo ops for the serial lying governor of Minnesota. The first appeared to show Walz removing a clean air filter from a truck and replacing it with … another clean air filter. The second showed him attempting to go pheasant hunting despite an inability to load his shotgun. The third was a video game sesh with fellow lunatic Leftist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. (As everyone knows, most men love playing Madden 2024 with women. Especially women who beat them at Madden 2024.)
The most glorious example of the Left’s manhood problem came in the form of a video from a group called Creatives for Harris. In this ad, various paid actors pretending to be men talked about some of their favorite manly activities: eating carburetors for breakfast, braiding their daughters’ hair, and giving “full throated” endorsements to female presidential nominees.
Predictably, the video immediately went viral as the worst political ad in the history of the world. Its creators claimed that their intended tone was “tongue in cheek,” though most viewers didn’t really get that. (Spoiler alert: Being horrible at sarcasm is not a manly trait.)
In 2022, political commentator Matt Walsh starred in a documentary entitled “What is a woman?” Leftists, of course, were totally stumped by this question. Now it appears that they don’t know what a man is, either. Are we sure that these mental midgets are the people we want running the country? Debating nuanced issues of international diplomacy?
Or deciding which bathrooms should have tampons?
