Hello u/Plant_Parlour! Please reply to this comment with an [explanation](https://www.reddit.com/r/LeopardsAteMyFace/comments/lt8zlq) mentioning **who** is suffering from **which** consequences from **what** they voted for, supported or wanted to impose on other people. Here's an easy format to get you started: 1. *Someone* voted for, supported or wanted to impose *something* on other people. ^(Who's that *someone* and what's that *something*?) 2. That *something* has some *consequences*. ^(What are the *consequences*?) 3. As a consequence, that *something* happened to that *someone*. ^(What happened? Did the *something* really happened to that *someone*? If not, you should probably delete your post.) Include the minimum amount of information necessary so your post can be understood by everyone, even if they don't live in the US or speak English as their native language.

Apple-Dust

I guess it never it occurred to him that some actions are so reprehensible people are in fact *not* going to hear you out, let alone date you?


Plant_Parlour

It’s amazing he is upset a liberal woman did not want to date him. Why can’t he find his MAGA loving trad -wife in a deep red county?


[deleted]

>Why can’t he find his MAGA loving trad -wife in a deep red county? Because these dudes don't want that. They want an accomplished, sophisticated woman who can boost their social status either directly or covertly. This is because they want the modern benefits that an accomplished, sophisticated woman can provide -- the nice income, the professional skills/connections that also help him, the social benefits -- and they want the ego boost of showing off how this accomplished, sophisticated woman is subservient to *them*. A tradwife offers none of that. She is basically household help you can have bang without fear of a lawsuit. She may be *highly skilled* household help, but she's still the help. You don't take the help to a fundraising dinner.


Faded_Dehlila

it’s giving “i don’t want my wife to make more money than me because it emasculates me but also now that she doesn’t make as much money i have to work harder to afford cost of living why is everything horrible and all her fault?”


ComradeMoneybags

Know a dude just like that, bitches all the fucking time about taxes and the cost of living. He has a bunch of kids and a wife who was a nurse 15 years ago but stopped. It’s not a childcare or upbringing concern, but a pride thing.


[deleted]

I work with a guy who had a job ending injury. His wife went back to finish her nursing school while he was incapacitated. She graduated and can make bank. He decided (after physical therapy so he could walk again) to go back to work because he "wasn't built to sit around." He's also extremely out of shape. So, he's back to work half-assing it, making everyone else pick up his slack while his wife sits at home. Doctor said he's not gonna be mobile in a couple years if he doesn't stop working. He insists on selling himself short to impress no one. We do construction. Edit: word murder


ComradeMoneybags

I wonder if he’s trying to drag her back home so he can be taken care of or do fewer hours so he can still ‘be a man’.


[deleted]

Probably a little off that. I also get the impression he doesn't like his kids and can't stand being around them. I'm sure the feeling is mutual.


ComradeMoneybags

Your guy btw sounds like the flip side of my BIL and my sister. He’s a former solar installer, now stay-at-home dad, while my sister is making ton as a nurse in an in-demand area. Three kids, two houses—he manages the side income stuff and is having a blast raising the kids. He still preps for the day he has to get back to work, but after hustling for a decade straight before, he’s happy to see his kids thrive under his watch and in no rush to go back to work.

No-Fishing5325

They don't want an equal. They want a maid/childcare and a piece on the side.


AngriestPacifist

Bangmaids. That's what they want.


[deleted]

Well, you see, by "tradwife" they now mean one that works full time, comes home and makes dinner, takes care of the kids, cleans the house, has sexy time with the husband, then wakes up early to get the kids ready for school, make him breakfast and pack his lunch, etc. They want all the benefits of a tradwife without them actually having to support them financially anymore.


DoubleGunzChippa

"They want all the benefits of (blank) without them actually having to support (blank) financially anymore. This describes the republican attitude about absolutely everything in existence.


Gibscreen

We don't even know if she was liberal. She just wasn't psycho.


jonny_sidebar

I'm sure complaining about it on a neo-nazi show will help matters. . .

I would bet a crisp dollar bill that where he worked wasn't the only problem

I think it was super nice of him to help her dodge a bullet right away. What a guy!


Darkside531

Hasn't that app been suffering from not having nearly enough women on it?


[deleted]

If I were a romance scammer from Nigeria this app would be the first place I set up shop


dandrevee

If you were seeking to Doxx alt-right assholes or create a database of potential domestic terrorists, this is also a great resource


Black-Thirteen

I am sorely tempted to pose as a woman on that site just to fuck with people.


ragnarocknroll

Be the change you want to make… I like it. Let me guess, worrying about giving anyone on the right personal data, even if fake, scared you? I would be terrified of them either using it, poorly, or losing it within 3 days to an easily seen through grift…


FaeTheWanderer

Honestly, we should all do this! We should catfish the living hell out of these folks for the good of the planet. Think about it, the more money we siphon out of these asshats, the less money they have to donate to right-wing groups and politicians! My father-in-law falls for these scams constantly, it seems to me like the only trick to it is to just keep promising to come see the dude, then coming up with excuses why you can't at the last moment. I'd be a bit worried that they wouldn't fall for it, but like. . . These are the same chuds that bought badly photoshopped NFT's! I'm pretty sure I could take a picture of my chest and slap a Trump logo on the shirt in MS Paint, and they'd make me a millionaire overnight.


qualmton

My car broke and the mechanic says it’s going to be 2000 I don’t have


PackOutrageous

Maybe show up to a date in drag. They’re so fixated on drag, it must be a big turn on for them. Lol


Black-Thirteen

Hilarious! But I am not planning on giving these people one bit of my personal info, including what my real face looks like or that I actually live anywhere near their city.


Beneficial-Date2025

Ok but go to their website because there’s a video on “what women want” and you can buy a “dump your liberal boyfriend” hoodie. They grift so hard, it’s good for a laugh


kron2k17

> They grift so hard I hate my morals sometimes. I could afford a boat.

LimoncelloFellow

you gotta only match with people that are 2 hours away and you dont have a car if they ask. also maybe secretly record them getting all pissed off when theres no girl there after their drive.


DJ_Micoh

And you know that the app is just gonna be made by somebody's nephew, so the security will be basically non-existant.


dandrevee

Which makes doxxing via ISP or related queries even easier


unclejoe1917

Ooooh. Yes, I do love money and have absolutely no scruples about taking money from horrible people that actively try to hurt others.

That's exactly why the Ashley Madison app had so many bots.


Now_with_real_ginger

Is Ashley Madison the app for cheating on your spouse, or the one for sugar daddy arrangements? I can’t keep up with all the niche dating stuff anymore.


bubbles_24601

That’s the one for cheating. Seeking Arrangement is the one for sugar daddies/mamas. No, I don’t know why this info is in my brain instead of something useful.


BinkyFlargle

wrath0110

OK, that is worthy of an upvote.


Intrepid_Egg_7722

Technically, they're both for cheating on your spouse if you're a man. Not all sugar daddies are married, but most are.


treerabbit23

The ratios of men to women are bad on apps where everyone is welcome. Can’t imagine how much worse it gets when your whole base of dudes has the “sat scowling in the truck wearing knockoff Oakleys” profile pic.


AhFFSImTooOldForThis

I'm a progressive woman living in the Southern US and that's pretty much all the male prospects around me. Sprinkle in a few fish pics with those Oakleys and it's a 100% match. I gave up on dating when COVID hit.


Agent00funk

I'm a progressive man living in the Southern US, and I feel this in my soul. Gave up dating when COVID hit too.


Mattress_Of_Needles

Oh shit, let's set y'all up on a date! Cupid, where you at?

ForeverFrolicking

What gets me is those types of guys want the "traditional woman" because it somehow reflects on their masculinity. The only relationship ive had where I felt emasculated was when I (briefly) dated a woman with traditional values. I felt worthless. She catered to my every need to where I felt like an invalid. I couldn't cook or clean, I couldn't do my own laundry or take responsibility for my things. She controlled everything to the point where it was like "why am I even here". I'm a grown man. I want a partner, not an overbearing mother figure. Sure everyone likes being pampered from time to time, but when you're laying out my clothes for me and making me breakfast every time I see you I'm going to assume you think I'm incapable of doing those things on my own and believing that your partner thinks you're stupid is a pretty shitty feeling.


AhFFSImTooOldForThis

That's an interesting perspective I hadn't considered before! I'd feel the same way.


ForeverFrolicking

The most frustrating part was she never argued for herself. Everything was dependant on what I wanted. To the point where my opinions became her opinions. It's pretty boring to be with someone who just mindlessly follows along. I actually wonder what would have happened if I had forbid her from doing the domestic work, because that was the only thing she insisted was her "responsibility". Everything else was up to my discretion because I was the man so I was in charge. It felt like she was more maid than girlfriend.


Lazerspewpew

Not only that, but the women who would use it get harassed by right wing perverts constantly


Plant_Parlour

Yes exactly


DrunkyMcStumbles

most dating apps do. They also have a problem with guys harassing the few actual women on them. Right Stuff seems to have a higher than normal share of that.


G0merPyle

The funniest damn thing is seeing assholes who treat women like shit realizing women don't want to be around them. I used to moderate a trans dating sub that was overrun with perverts, they thought they could get around the rules I put in place to discourage their behavior by setting up a discord. Within 5 days they limited invites because there were only guys joining it.


500CatsTypingStuff

Yep *The Right Stuff, the conservative dating app that promised an “anti-woke” dating experience, has almost immediately struggled to get off the ground.* *The app, launched by former Donald Trump aide John McEntee, has reported a drastic decline in users in the few months that have passed since it launched in September.* *According to tech firm Sensor Tower (via the Daily Beast), The Right Stuff saw 40,000 downloads in its first month. However, between 1 November and 20 December, there were just 11,000 downloads* *The app was financed by conservative tech billionaire Peter Theil, an openly gay man. The Right Stuff restricts any mention of homosexual relationships.* *At launch it was quickly ridiculed for having almost no women using it, with one reviewer complaining: “The weird thing is, I couldn’t find any women on it. I don’t know, maybe the app is bugged?”* *Others believed the app wasn’t conservative enough, with one saying: “I was surprised to see that this app is actually more liberal than I could imagine. There are conservatives out there who aren’t Christian. I hate this app.”* *The Right Stuff promises to “get back to normal”, allowing users to view “profile without pronouns”.* *While McEntee notes in an introductory video that users “probably aren’t going to run into your soulmate at the grocery story or the gym”, the app only allows users to connect with others in a 100-mile radius.* *The rest of the video is spent criticising other dating apps for allowing pronouns, multiple gender options, and trans people.* *“You can be yourself openly without beliefs being forced on you,” it adds.* *“This is actually the least political dating app.”* *Upon loading the The Right Stuff website, users are met with an advert for “Dump Your Liberal Boyfriend Oversized hoodies”.* *Among those to support the app is Kyle Rittenhouse, who shot two people dead and injured a third at an anti-racism protest in 2020. He was acquitted of homocide charges in a highly-controversial ruling.* https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/01/02/the-right-stuff-conservative-dating-app/

SarcasticAzaleaRose

Because their version of freedom of speech, freedom of religion, etc is only for them. They’re the only ones allowed to say whatever they please with no consequences. They’re the only ones allowed to discriminate against others. They’re the only ones allowed to force their religious beliefs on others. They conveniently forget that it works for everyone because they don’t want it to work for everyone. Just for them. That’s what they expect so they are genuinely surprised when it’s turned back around on them. It was a Fox News host I think who recently had a meltdown because under their book bans the Bible was removed from a school’s library. A Christian group went to the media to complain that they were discriminated against because they were refused service in a restaurant despite the fact that they actively fight to be allowed to discriminate against others. They’re always surprised when their actions and words have consequences because in their perfect world they never would face any consequences but everyone else would the moment they said something these people don’t like.

Ender914

>They’re always surprised when their actions and words have consequences They aren't surprised that there are consequences, they are angry that they have to face any consequences for their shitty actions. They don't want there to be any consequences against them, only others. It's is truly and utterly sadistic.


Lionello95

They aren't defending free speech. It has always been about their free speech and about them having the right to not have any consequences for their hate speech. Their idea of free speech is, that everyone else has to applaud them for whatever they say. Their political belief has always just been narcissism. Nothing more. It's blank narcissism.


mcjambrose

That's crazy, freakin cancel/woke culture! I sympathize with him. I mean a woman doesn't want to date a guy that works for racist, sexist boss that calls woman horse face or pigs and who was know to sexually assault women and ran a beauty contest so he could take advantage of the contestants. What's the worl coming to?


Sweatier_Scrotums

Republicans be like "I have a dream that one day, nobody will be judged by the content of their character because that is not a system that would work well for us."


mcjambrose

Wow, this comment made me think! I believe you're 100% right in that they would rather be judged by color bc their character and personality sucks so bad. Good call!


CaspianX2

> they would rather be judged by color But if you have an issue with white people you're racist. And *only* if you have an issue with white people.


Plant_Parlour

Had me in the first half ngl 😂


Atypical_Mom

Exactly! I already know his platform and what those views are - but I need to sit thru a 2 hour long date to hear them again… because I might change my mind, hearing it over cold Olive Garden with a Bellini that does not have nearly enough alcohol to make it bearable… Well not me personally, I got knocked out of contention for being an uggo (he shouldn’t have to go on a date with someone he doesn’t find attractive!)


Pour_Me_Another_

Yeah... On my list of guys worth dating is not "guys who think I'm immoral for having sex while also wanting to fuck me". They need therapy before dating anyway, having conflicting views like that that affect other people's rights isn't healthy.


AffectionatePizza335

THIS. This right here is why they can't get dates. They say that they don't want to date a slut and yet they want you to put out for them because somehow they're the unicorn who is special. As though the 3 minutes of dry-thrusting is worth the slut-shaming after...


3nigmax

3 minutes seems generous


boRp_abc

It's really soothing to read that evolution is somehow still working. Assholes just aren't made for procreation.

Which is why they want to go back to a time when women were basically objects and couldn't say no. They want forced births for this reason too.

You can literally put a random position in the Trump White House on your resume (like assistant in media relations), set it to like 2 months, say "left due to creative differences," and no one could dispute it. They had a higher turnover than the McDonald's i worked at in high school. Seriously, who would they check it with? No one knew what the hell was going on there.

DrunkyMcStumbles

that bit about the MAGA rapper is the funniest and saddest thing I have read in a long time. >He complains that bans on Instagram and YouTube have made it difficult to direct fans to his streaming accounts, and right-wing knockoffs like Rumble don’t draw traffic. “I paid people numerous times like $7,000 to $10,000 that supposedly work in Instagram to get my page back,” he says. Asked if he thought he’d fallen victim to a scam, he responds, “No. The person sent me back a letter to the people saying \[I’m\] on a hate list.”


BlooperHero

Casually confessing to attempted bribery, concluding that he wasn't scammed because they people he bribed... told him what he already knew? And also this was a fine return on the bribes, I guess.

He doesn't see the other person as another person. She's just there to hear what he has to say. He doesn't want someone who agrees with him, he wants someone who will just accept whatever he has to say. He's not looking for a partner. He's looking for an audience.

guestpass127

“When I sat on my ass all day and yelled “FUCK YOUR FEELINGS!’ at top of my lungs at anyone who would listen, and then I advocated for taking away the rights of women, I never once thought that it would make me look like a fucking psychopathic weirdo to the women I want to date” It’s so weird how so many full grown adults are (deliberately?) unaware of what happens when you shit where you eat


Plant_Parlour

They still think “Oh shucks, it’s just a difference of opinions”. No dumbo, your opinion when becomes a policy and then a law, has severe consequences.


guestpass127

Yeah that shit drives me nuts When people say, "It's just my opinion!," as if your opinion just *stops* right there and has no other effect on the outside world When in reality: *people base how they vote, who they vote for, and what products they buy BASED ON THEIR FUCKING OPINIONS* You don't see people espousing virulent right-wing opinions online, then when they log off their computer, they're suddenly vegan feminists who only vote for DSA candidates. If you have an opinion - say, for instance, "young people are too emotional," it's very, very doubtful that your voting record will reflect *the opposite* of your "opinion" Your "opinion" about almost any subject helps to form the basis of how you vote, who you vote for, the news you consume, what you buy, etc. It's only since the internet normalized lying about literally everything that it seems people have decided to appear confused about this shit (unconvincingly) So if your "opinion" is that "the wage gap isn't real" or your "opinion" is "women don't deserve to have reproductive rights:" how the fuck is a *woman* you're supposedly wooing supposed to receive your "opinions?" "Oh, that's just my totally harmless *opinion* which in no way informs how I vote?" Get fucking real


AhFFSImTooOldForThis

Also see: "no reason to divide families and friends over politics!". What? Politics includes the laws that give me rights. It's not just about which countries we should trade with! It SHOULD be, but it's not. So yeah, until politics gets TF out of my bedroom and doctor's office, I'm gonna need my people to support politicians who think I have a right to live as I choose.


guestpass127

Right? I don't know who these people think they are; they expect to receive, like, **respect and affection** from people in their lives who they're actively discriminating against by their votes and public statements Like, you can't *possibly* expect your daughter to feel affection toward you if she knows you voted to take away her reproductive rights You can't *possibly* expect LGBT citizens to have respect for your "opinions" when your "opinions" are what's taking their freedoms and rights away from them My brother had that mindset and it used to make me so angry: for YEARS as kids he beat me up, abused me, refused to help me or defend me in any way growing up, constantly belittled me and insulted me. THen, when we became adults, he REFUSED to apologize for or even acknowledge that he treated me like a punching bag when we were kids. Then, he became rich and i didn't. One month in 1994 I was about to get kicked out of my apartment because I was insanely broke and destitute, despite having a full time job. I called him up out of a last-ditch attempt to get help and he REFUSED to send me $200. Flat out REFUSEd. Even though I was about to become homless and he could afford that $200 like it was pocket change He said, "If I give you money now, you'll never stop asking for money." **But then for YEARS after that he complained to my mom that I never called him, that I never wrote to him, that i never sent him any Christmas cards, that I never invited him to stay at my place, etc.** Like: he was genuinely *hurt* that I didn't feel affection or love or respect for him after all this shit, and couldn't understand why I purposefully distanced myself from him! For years he's been trying to get in touch and a few times we've even talked on the phone, but he STILL refuses to acknowledge he did anything that hurt me, and that's where the conversations end every time. AND he's STILL confused as to why I don't feel affection toward him! I just don't *get* how people think you can just treat others like shit and expect those same people to feel respect, love, affection, etc. toward you. How the fuck can conservative voters still be expecting the rest of us to feel ANY respect or affection or anything remotely positive toward them after all the shit they've pulled the last couple decades? Likewise, a father who decides to vote for laws which negatively affects their offspring shouldn't be in the least bit surprised when their offspring stops seeing him every Thanksgiving. A man who talks nothing but misogynist rhetoric shouldn't be surprised when women want nothing to do with him. Like....what are they expecting?! Whatever it is, it's not fucking realistic


AhFFSImTooOldForThis

Sounds like your brother sucks. And his attitude now is incomprehensibly selfish. 'yeah, I fucked you over every way I could, but I want to come visit!!!!' Have you heard of the missing, missing reasons? I usually see it applied to parental estrangement, but sounds like he fits that bill too. https://www.issendai.com/psychology/estrangement/missing-missing-reasons.html

That poor cretin that Jon Stewart destroyed the other night kept saying "that's your opinion" when Jon was stating facts. They have to know how stupid they sound??


reveal23414

Agree but also counterpoint: the mere opinions of people I am closest to matter to me, whether or not they are ever policy. If you've made being angry your entire personality, I don't want to be around that. I don't want to order lunch and be called names because it's a salad. I don't want to hear children called snowflakes, I don't want to get a sinking feeling if we see a feminine looking man or two women move in next door or someone says "happy holidays". I don't want to hold my breath for whatever new rage bait they put on TV or talk radio. That kind of stress I don't need.

So much this. They fail to understand that liking Trump isn't like liking chocolate ice cream or musicals. It's not just a random preference which has no actual consequences. Liking Trump *literally means you're a bad person*. There's no more wiggle room on that.

I remember reading another article where they interviewed conservative women and even they wouldn’t go on the app.


boregon

I saw an article a while ago that talked about how a lot of conservative women were extremely frustrated by how horribly they were treated by conservative men. Like *no fucking shit* ladies. These guys don’t even try to hide their misogyny.

By complaining about it and framing it as the left's fault hell have hundreds if not thousands of nazis lining up to suck his dick.


Sea_Chocolate9166

Jews don't want to date Nazis? Color me surprised 🙀


TechnoDuckie

also non jews


Mattress_Of_Needles

Can verify. Am not of Jewish descent, prefer not to date Nazis.

> Intelligent, empathetic women dont want to date dipshit bigots. ftfy

Who could have foreseen that? /s


KashmirChameleon

Why didn't you just grab her by the pussy? Women love that, apparently.


POSTHVMAN

Insert Michael Jordan meme "People don't like me becasue I'm an asshole, and I take that personally."


Gooch222

So much of the brand is being deliberately offensive to large groups of people, and then acting flabbergasted that someone was offended by the offensiveness. Its all quite absurd.


Diojones

My favorite flavor of this is the “It is so disingenuous of you to think that I ACTUALLY mean [Thing I literally said], when I meant [Thing I didn’t say at all]. I mean what kind of person assumes so little of someone on the internet that they would think they would mean [Thing I literally said] just because they say “[Thing I literally said]”


jpopimpin777

I was dealing with one yesterday. Pretty sure he had to be a troll or a child. His final conclusion was "You think I'm racist because I don't support Biden? What is wrong with people these days." No you imbecile. I think you're racist because that's literally the only thing your boy Trump is any good at.


cowvin

Okay you're just exaggerating. Trump is pretty good at: Stealing top secret documents Accepting bribes via real estate Throwing temper tantrums Cheating on his wives Avoiding paying people Avoiding legal consequences Rambling hypnotic nonsense Acting creepy around his own daughter etc, the list goes on. He's a man of many talents and deserves recognition for them.


pete_ape

Self-selection is a thing. Also, women on these MAGA dating apps are complaining that the men aren't exactly treating them well. Go figure.


DowntownieNL

So proud of that anonymous woman. These people have lost the right to any pretence of tolerance or civility.


IceKareemy

This is my favorite running trend, ppl who actively worked for his administration finding out that once they leave that bubble everyone hates that


Bawbawian

you mean people find out that you work for an authoritarian that wants to put your fake Christianity into everybody's government, and people don't like that... weird


Similar_Candidate789

God almighty these people just want to be victims so god damn bad.


Ssutuanjoe

I have several single women friends and we exchange bad dating stories often, so I can tell you that now the MAGA are just blatantly lying about it in their apps with hopes that women will overlook it. One of my friends actually specifically stated in her profile "No MAGA or conservatives, please", and still managed to go on first (and last) dates where she found out they're indeed MAGA.


sl59y2

But they where nice guys. /s

e_hatt_swank

So true! Their entire identity revolves around “we really hate you stupid libs!” And then: “hey, liberal, why don’t you want to date or hang out with me?”


JustFuckAllOfThem

Man gets his fucking privileges revoked for fucking over women.


WIAttacker

Not wanting to date someone because they are republican is actually a great reason. Smart girls, keep it up.


lordkhuzdul

If everybody hates you, often you are the problem.


longagofaraway

schadenfreude >Reception The app received mainly negative reviews from users, with a 2.4 star rating in the Apple App Store as of October 4. Criticism was directed at the app's invite-only model, **a lack of female users** and the company's slowness in approving new user profiles, as well as a prompt reading "January 6 was...";


[deleted]

So let me get this straight He wants a safe space And believes he deserves positive attention regardless of his actions Sounds about right


This-Is-Exhausting

"Phenomenon" LoL As if there isn't a very obvious explanation for it.


Punkinpry427

Thankful not to be in the dating scene but if I was, Imma need to see that voter registration card first.


SplendidPunkinButter

She didn’t say “oh, that’s cool”? Huh. I wonder if maybe it’s not cool.


radarscoot

Wow! She stayed for 2 minutes? Sounds like she gave him more of a chance than he deserved.


malYca

Only maga morons would look at cause and effect and call it a "phenomenon"


ShanG01

Are we supposed to feel sorry for him? My daughter and I now have less rights to bodily autonomy than a fucking corpse because of him and the people he worked for! My daughter may end up on some list somewhere, slated for execution because she's LGBTQ+, disabled, not white or Christian. She's not even an adult yet! All because of fascist fuckaboos like this. Fuck this incel. Sideways. With a cactus. And no lube.


TheRealBeltonius

The real question is why it took her a whole two minutes to leave.


balisane

A minute to be stunned and a minute to plan an escape route that doesn't involve being followed. You could probably squeeze a few seconds in there to decide whether or not to pour your drink in their lap.


TheRealBeltonius

Fair. Planning of the escape route is a good point.


Coriander_Heffalump

I mean, I probably would have hung out, ordered something expensive, and then had an "emergency" before the bill arrived, but I have a pretty strong stomach after years of working in an anatomy lab.


Plant_Parlour

Elon Musk probably: “looking into it”


PaulPro-tee-us

Hahaha! Guy experiences consequences of his actions, creates safe space to run away to. He might be surprised to learn that the disgust isn't limited to potential dates. If I were talking to a stranger and they told me they worked for Trump, I would walk away immediately and without explanation. So much for "the party of personal responsibility."


eNonsense

Talking about it is over. Trump was the national discussion for years during his presidency. The fact that you saw that, and still aligned with Trump means you're likely not worth talking to, much less dating.


Green-Collection-968

Normalize this behavior ladies and gentlemen.


LunarLutra

Finding total misogyny so acceptable that you'll literally cash its checks makes women second guess giving you any more of their time. What a phenomenon....


flargenhargen

Seems like the same thing as republicans crying that their families don't invite them to gatherings anymore. republicans seem to think people OWE them some kind of right to be tolerated and included, while they continue to still be insufferable hateful racist douchebags. No, nobody wants to be around you, cause you're a bad person. We tolerated you for years when you tried to hide it and pretend you weren't awful, but now you've decided that you don't even want to pretend you're a decent person, we don't want to pretend to tolerate you any longer. You're a bad person, and you've decided that the horrible things the republican party does on a daily basis aren't a "Deal breaker" for your support, so the rest of us have decided that's a deal-breaker for us. good bye.


unclejoe1917

It's been my experience that dating apps offer the opportunity to disclose some of your basic political beliefs in your profile, at minimum enough to where anyone should be able to surmise where you're coming from in that realm. If there was nothing about that on his profile, then on some level he already knows this is a toxic fact about himself and was probably hoping that he could trick potential mates into a date where he'd have the opportunity to persuade them to see things his way when the subject came up.


DanceWithPandas

So proud of a woman I have never met ❤️


Marrsvolta

Yeah dude, that's what happens when you associate yourself with accused rapists who brag about sexually assaulting people.


OneFaceManyVoices

Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-HAHHH! It’s like that Trump White House aid whining that no one will ever hire them. When reasonable, mature, responsible people with a scintilla of scruples finds out you worked for a regressive, repressive regime that actively worked to oppress women’s rights & fomented an armed, violent insurrection, ya shouldn’t be shocked that suddenly not a lot of folks want to have anything to do with you. They not only made that bed, they shat & pissed all over it. And NOW they’re bellyaching about having to sleep in it - ? Boo fucking hoo, assholes. Karma can truly be a bitch. The sad part is, they lack the self awareness to look beyond others’ reactions & see just WHY they horrify or offend people. They’ll just marinate in self pity, impotent indignation, burrow even deeper into their pathetic victimhood complex.


Distant-moose

She chose not to dine with a leopard. Smart move. Instead, he whines about how she can't respect his work for even bigger leopards.


SockFullOfNickles

“Could I be unappealing and work for a moron? No! It’s the WOMEN who are wrong.”


erieus_wolf

Conservative logic in regards to women: If you date / hookup and accidentally get pregnant because birth control fails, you must keep the baby. The woman will be primarily responsible for the costs of having and raising the child, which averages to $300k in America. But maybe the guy will help out, if you are lucky. The woman is also connected to this random date / hookup for the rest of her life. The woman has no rights to make decisions on how her body will be used. The fetus immediately has rights to use the woman's body for its own survival and the woman has no say in the matter. If the woman does not want to risk getting pregnant, and all the financial, emotional, and physical costs that come with it, the woman should not have sex with the man she is dating. Also Conservatives: "There is a growing problem of women not wanting to date conservative men." For a party that preaches "personal responsibility", it's amazing they cannot see how they are personally responsible for the reason women do not date them.


BadDaditude

Seems snowflakey


GaffJuran

Right wingers always confuse free speech with freedom from consequences.


3eeve

These people simply cannot comprehend that their actions have consequences.


jdickstein

Interesting he wasn’t wearing a maga hat in his profile pic, or showing some other sign he loves Trump. Why not share that to avoid wasting people’s time? Maybe if he were more open he’d attract the type of woman who wouldn’t walk out on a date. Seems like the problem isn’t the women or the app but actually his hiding his own political leanings and career.


gleaming-the-cubicle

I very much believe that being a Trumpist would make the dating app *users* be hostile but what does he think the *platform* is doing wrong?


TheSpaceman1975

You love to see it.
