1/19/2019 Kelsey Harkness, Daily Signal -- Two years into the movement, the Women’s March is melting down.

Much of the media will blame its decay on the leaders’ unwillingness to denounce anti-Semitism, but that will only be part of the story. The other reason it will ultimately demise is because it was a fraud from the very start.

Despite its clever branding efforts, the Women’s March never represented women as a unified force. Instead, it represented radically liberal women who were upset with the results of the 2016 presidential election.

Man or woman, the march embodied a certain segment of the population that despised President Donald Trump. But instead of labeling themselves as such, its founders claimed to represent half the population.

Obviously, that wasn’t true.

“The Women’s March does not represent me because it does not represent all women,” Mykala Steadman, a senior at Brigham Young University in Idaho and an intern at The Heritage Foundation, told The Daily Signal.

“The Women’s March does not represent me because I believe in equal rights, not extra rights,” added Deana Bass Williams, a partner at Bass Public Affairs.

“The Women’s March doesn’t represent me because I do not vote with my anatomy, and I do not vote with my wheelchair. I vote with my head, guided by my heart,” said Melissa Ortiz, a visiting fellow with The Independent Women’s Forum who was born with a disability that left her bound to a wheelchair.

Not surprisingly, two years later the movement is falling apart. Hate, as it turns out, is not a sustainable force.

At a different pro-women’s march called the March for Life, men and women took to the streets of Washington, D.C. by the thousands. It was a beautiful celebration of the 46th year for the March for Life, which is an anniversary the Women’s March will never see.

That’s because instead of marching for hate, the March for Life marched for love. Love for the unborn, which is our most fundamental human right.

Had the Women’s March been founded in love and known what it stood for instead of just what it was against, it would have stood a chance of surviving its most recent scandal with anti-Semitism. But being founded in hate and identity politics, this was enough to divide the movement and bring so much of it down.

The problems of anti-Semitism inside the Women’s March are deep and serious, and warrant every bit of backlash they’ve received. But when the march inevitably ceases to exist, its demise will be about so much more.

It will remind us that just because women are born with the same body parts doesn’t mean we think and believe the same thing. It will teach us that pretending to speak for a majority when you’re only a fringe minority is a dishonest, fraudulent strategy.

But most importantly, it will remind us that everyone reaps what they sow. For the Women’s March, that’s divisiveness, anger, and an incredible amount of hate.

I’ll be happy to see it go, because as women, we represent so much more.

I was listening to local radio yesterday because there was one of these circle jerks in Philly.

The woman said she’s marching because her rights are being threatened and she doesn’t want to go back to the 50s.

These people are stupid as fuck. How the hell are her damn rights being threatened???

More basic than that. Odds are that if asked, she couldn't ever explain what her rights ARE. Because, as you point out, these people are stupid as fuck.

I have had a similar conversation with some folks,

when asked what has changed in the past 2/5/15 yrs none can give an answer,


this part is a bit telling to me,

while most will not admit it, I would bet those that are 'falling out' of the movement have either realized it was BS, or moved on to whatever the new shiny thing the media is flashing in front of them

Saw a short segment of one-or-another "Women's March" things on the local "news". Some woman babbling about... border control and illegal aliens' "rights?" What in the Wide, Wide World of Sports do those have to do with women's rights?

Then they brought on Kirsten Gillibrand .

It was all recorded, so I was inclined to skip past it, but, last time I did that over some-or-another dumb leftist nonsense my wife protested. So I voiced my opinion and briefly left the room.

Wife: "I like to know what those people are saying. ``Know your enemy``."
Me: "And what did you learn?"
Wife: "None of what they were saying made any sense."
Me: "Precisely. Which is why I refuse to waste my time trying to make sense of them any more."

(Then they went back to the recent "winter storm," complete with pretty field reporter driving around the slush-covered [at worst] streets. More waste of time.)

Johnnie Walker supports the nonsense.

Is the war on women still going on?

Wow. That may be even more dumb than Gilette's idiocy. Where are these companies finding their marketing genius' and executives?

I think that Kennedy was the only politician that has a confirmed kill with the war on women.

Its amazing to me how the overlaying premise is that everyone should be treated the same with no prejudice...

.... yet the groups promoting that are founded on demonstrating exactly how different and unique the members are.

Unless of course you're a Caucasian male, in which chase you should't be treated equally for all of your past evils.

Such an odd time we live in

It is both! At least in my opinion. Unfortunately, far too many people (men and women) in this country believe that whatever appears on CNN, MSNBC, etc must be gospel truth, mostly because that is all they have heard in schools and at dinner tables from their early years.

It's more of a "Police Action".

Is Ted Kennedy still holding rights to the first confirmed kill in the war on women ?

They had one in Marquette. The ass freezing weather only added to the stupid. Had one in Houghton, too.
The common denominator between these two Yoop cities? A University. Which draws idiots like flies.

The serpent of PC eats itself because none are pure enough to escape its ever changing standards.

I've got a woman at work, we have a lot of things in common, but she is a Trump basher. Every so often I have to say, "how has he directly affected your life?". And that usually shuts her down.

Everytime I hear about the "Women's March" and the Jew-hating organizers, I think about this South Park episode. Only thing they are missing are the pussy hats.
