2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

I feel like I'm missing context. What question/ statement is he replying to where this response makes any kind of sense?

She signed her endorsement of Kamala Harris as "Childless Cat Person" in reference to JD's comments.

Ahhhh. This makes a bit more sense. Thanks!

But now I'm curious about what JD said. Argh. Pulling at this thread will end up with me joining twitter. Got to stop.

Pulling thread is good. Joining twitter is bad ;) Try searching for articles to explain the situation instead. In example: https://time.com/7003456/jd-vance-childless-cat-ladies-controversy/

He said something to effect of ‘this country is being run by miserable childless cat ladies who want to make everyone else miserable just like them’.

JD's comment was aimed at Harris for not having children, and he called her just that.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Which was extra dumb because she has 2 kids.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Except you see she didn't give birth to them so she's not a mother

I shit you not, I've seen moms in mom groups making arguments like that about C-Sections, so it's not much of a leap to expect Republicans to make similarly disgusting statements
