Summary
Donald Trump’s re-election has fueled a surge in misogynistic, homophobic, and racist rhetoric among young men, reportedly emboldened by the president-elect’s history of inflammatory remarks about women.
In schools, boys have been caught using phrases like “your body, my choice” against female peers, prompting districts like Minnesota’s Hopkins Public Schools to issue warnings to parents about harassment.
The impact extends beyond schools, with activists on Texas State University’s campus displaying signs asserting that “women are property.”
This hostile climate has left many women feeling unsafe as a new far-right administration takes power.
Next election is in two years. Don’t forget midterms. Make sure you’re informed about local elections too. They can make more of a difference to you, and they also get people into positions they can move upward from.
Great reminder. Always tracking state and local.
I just can’t allow myself to fall into paralysis over “who” our country actually is. THIS. This is who our country actually is.
