“They don’t want to hear women…” —Sen Leahy
They’ll reject that as rank hypocrisy. They actually, sincerely believe that you can’t be concerned about the rights of women if you’re not a woman, that you can’t be concerned about the rights of PoC if you’re not a PoC, that you can’t be concerned about the rights of _____ if you’re not a ____. If you claim to be, you’re just pretending for partisan reasons. They honestly believe this on the most basic level—it’s the foundation of their philosophy.
