Protest sign seen in Olympia, Washington. The guys on the bottom do no qualify. One wonders if their masks are to keep their mothers and family members and friends from knowing what they do for a living. They are a class of “domestic terrorist.”
After a hiatus of a few years and a slight domain name adjustment, tRump Administration 2.0: The Descent into Hell is providing too much fodder for this site to ignore. Yes, we know … not all men are jerks and some women are. This site is a little tongue in cheek, but there’s a large dose of outrage about what’s going on.
Welcome back.
I told my husband about my sexual assault case.

& he blamed me for it.
he called me a hypocrite & told me I put myself in that position, ”I knew better” & I shouldn’t have been there, that I shouldn’t have been drinking.
We’ll be divorced in July.

Be sure to read the comment thread on Twitter.
This explains a lot … not that it wasn’t a known phenomenon. Take the President of the United States, for example. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic at TEDxUniversityofNevada
Received by a friend on FB:
“You’re projecting your lack of confidence in men, in general, which translates into your own insecurities, onto a man who is innocent of whatever other disappointments other men put you through, & he has, & is doing, & will continue to do a monumental job, for America. You can’t see that, which is evidenced by his accomplishments in hundreds of ways, in less than three years, because you’re enslaved by personal bitterness, & cognitive dissonance.
“Bitterness towards men is not a solution to the issue, it is the sedative you employ to assuage the pain of your fears & insecurities, & inhibit your ability to see, accept, & ultimately love any human as they are… as being only human.”
A suggested response to this canned nonsense (from Billy Madison):
“What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone [on Facebook] is now dumber for having [read] it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”
Tip o’ the hat to Christy and Brian!

Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price (the genius) thinks cutting teen pregnancy prevention programs is a good idea. If Hell is already half full, would the entire Trump Administration push it over capacity?
