Dred Feminist Rant September 2016

Dred Feminist Rant -- September 2016: Irony keeps me sane. Irony is when an African American Democratic president has to save capitalism from Republican corruption as his first mandate in office, when capitalism invented white supremacy and the mythical white race only to make money. Irony is when Hillary Clinton tried to save the Republican Party from Donald Trump when that same party spent the last 30 years vilifying her mercilessly. Irony is when deplorable white supremacists get called out for supporting a racist candidate who launched his political career with birtherism, who now claims to want to support childcare as a means to encourage women to have more children. As Lily Tomlin said, no matter how cynical I become, I can't keep up.
