Meanwhile, Trump-supporting men will date even Clinton supporters. Probably because they understand that 1.) there just aren't very many female Trump supporters, and 2.) when you're so horny the crack of dawn isn't safe, any willing body will do.

What I'm sure comes off as noble non-partisan gallantry on the part of Chad Chudderly here really boils down to the fact that for many male Trump supporters, a woman is no more capable of an actual political opinion than a guinea pig. So why would they care?

Also, most men (at least online) seem to operate from the assumption that their [perectly average, no doubt functioning] penis is exactly what any given women needs to magically solve all her problems, as well as his need to get a nutt.

Further proof of my theory that every conservative grievance boils down to being a real-life version of Matt Bors’ You Made Me Become A Nazi cartoon.

There are some men – over-represented on the conservative side – who would rather devote about a hundred times more time and energy to dreaming up outlandish theories about why women won’t date them than spend a fraction of that time working on being a decent human being.

Incidentally, this guy has NO IDEA how bad it is. I wouldn’t let a Trump supporter clean my cat’s litter box let alone buy me dinner, LOL.

Assholes. The word you're looking for is assholes. Moral deviants lends you clowns entirely too much dignity.

And "Wah! Nobody likes us!" is not a good look even when justified, which it absolutely is not here.

I remember the asshole issue from the days when I used to have time to argue with libertarians. They felt asking them not to be obnoxious was censorship, and worse--asking them to be untruthful!

When your main concern is that the cries of the needy might be heard by government, potentially causing a 1% increase in your taxes, "asshole" is exactly what you're shopping for come election-time. Assholes are the only ones you can trust to say "Are there no workhouses?" when the widows and orphans come calling.

Then the disease progresses from "asshole is a necessary evil" to "asshole is an admirable quality", because "He says what he thinks!" and "He won't be silenced!"

Terminal stage is when "asshole" goes from "Something I look for in a candidate for office" to "Something I want to be myself." Sadly, "asshole" doesn't actually lead to success in life for anyone who doesn't make a living running in Republican primaries.

Ummm, ok -- "left-modernist" was probably "Gramscean cosmopolitan" in the first drafts

and....

Yes, those things do make one "moral deviants." Ethical, more accurately. Because being pro-marginalization & pro-oppression is not the same kind of opinion as what we're having for lunch.

For a while I had the fantasy of writing a jukebox musical starring Elvis Presby, with the lyrics of classics re-written to acknowledge/mock/deplore old age. I got as far as the Who's "Macular Degeneration" ("People try to show me stuff/MAC-U-LAR DE-GENNNN-ERATION/But my eyes ain't good enough/" etc.).

Women won't date you because you wrote a 20,000 word screed about why the BBC was wrong for making The Doctor a woman? Girls don't like you because you loudly berate the wait staff in restaurants for "putting too much ice" in your Mountain Dew? Ladies find you unappealing because you wear a hideous red hat with Times New Roman font so it looks like a lazy product from Cafe Press? Well, then, it sounds like this might have something to do with the 1619 Project.

JFC, I suppose it’s on me to lower the level of discourse…: if a decent percentage of women did deign to date Trumpets, maybe there’d be fewer insurrectionists, alt-righters, etc.

Too: 6% also sounds like the percentage of Trumpets worth dating.

But to sober up a bit: Odds are the Trump Man is unlikely to use birth control and, in case of pregnancy, will insist on, well, let’s say stymying the woman’s right to choose. So, you know, odds on of being a poor choice in a date. Add, as it were, likely being exposed to a spew of conservative media delusions, well, a hard pass is smart and easy.

Of course, the nation might be better off without this far left Lysistrataism but it’s not for me to judge.

"Morlocks are made, not born!"

Damn, Roy, I don't know how you do it.

This guy thinks that Trump supporters are victimized by mere political animosity? Jesus, asshole, Trump supporters aren't repulsive because of some disagreement over progressive taxation or universal heathcare. It's because they're fucking TRUMP supporters, and by definition that doesn't make them "affectively polarized," it makes them fucking losers. Much to Kaufmann's dismay, progressive men and women actually have standards, and "asshole" doesn't meet any of them. (He also conflates "conservatives" with "Trump supporters" throughout, but that's his problem.)

What makes it all the more insanely ridiculous, to be kind, is that Kaufmann wants the full weight of the government to mandate and enforce laws against making Trump-lovers feel bad: "government must step in," "governments should be able to regulate," "This may require governments to," "publicly funded organizations would be required," "require governments to... prevent their administrators... prevent private firms," leading to hysterical paragraphs demanding a new crusade of affirmative action for Trumpists in all institutions.

Yeah. That'll get 'em laid.
