re: #440 DisturbedEma

I see it in how they treated Palin- sexualized tactics, gendered attacks- the whole implied “shouldn’t she be home with her kids” mentality…

Good point. I’ve noticed a funny thing about liberals. If you’re conservative, you don’t get the protections that ordinarily come with being a minority or female. They will do and say things to any conservative, regardless of race or gender, that they would never even think of doing or saying to a minority or woman who was liberal.

But even as I typed that, I remember a lot of Hillary supporters complaining of sexism on DU, coming from Obama supporters in the primaries…so I guess it’s situational.
