Yeah, it sure was a man's world back the-

Wait, is that supposed to be Jackie Robinson? Jackie Robinson had no ceilings on his dreams?

And who's that next to - SIR I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOUR DREAMS ARE BUT I NEED YOU TO RETURN THE BABY

boys had no ceilings on their dreams

Jackie Robinson

This is just the saddest copium. Like, something similar for Obama would at least make sense. Regardless of politics or how one feels about his politics, major color barrier broken with him becoming president, lots of implications for the politics of race as a result. Oversimplified, but that’s kids books for you. Can’t expect a book on civics for eight year olds to be gramsci-level deep.

This doesn’t work for Hillary because she lost. There were no glass ceiling broken, she faceplanted on it twice. We don’t construct mythologies around the almost-theres, the person before the person who hit the mark. So this is trying to create the feeling of a Hillary victory that never happened.

Ah yes, it wasn't the collective efforts of suffragettes all around the world protesting and putting their lives on the line. It was all Hillary.

screaming thinking about all the women who fought killed and died for a better world. HOW IS THIS NOT DEEPLY MISOGYNISTIC? all women were wittle babies who were too scared to fight the patriarchy until Hillary saved us.

The only PoC shown are entertainers or a child being abducted by a colonizer (?)

this made look up the wiki page on Women in STEM and the entire page goes real hard at avoiding showing how this is a western phenomenon transmitted via colonialism through a pretty severe lack of geographic analysis.

the talk page has its "boys like X and girls like Y, it's just hormonal" assholes and then someone pointing out how the disparity is almost non existent in former eastern bloc countries and women participation in engineering and physical sciences was very high during the decades of the USSR ("did soviet women just have more testosterone then? seems unlikely.", leading to a complete meltdown about how the USSR was the most brutal repressive state in the history of this guy's mind palace.

but the worst problem is how i just knew it was going to be like this. i fucking hate this. i'm going to literally find a set of statistics and map this shit, because i am so fucking over the constant portrayal of this as some inscrutable mystery for patriarchal shitheads to pontificate their little misogynistic pet theories about.

sorry this has very little to do with the image.

Mao be like tap tap SIR please stop selling opium in my country and give that baby back to whoever you stole them from.

No one had it better in the 50's than black athletes and musicians

Dear American comrades, please don't think this shit is a US exclusive. We have those insane books here in Krautland too:

It was a fucking bestseller and they made a movie out of it. However since 2022 Merkel's image has dropped significantly since she wasn't tough enough on Russia and only cared about the economy lol.

Westerners are the most propagandized people in the world.

Hilary acting more oppressed than what appears to be Mao Zedong, an abducted African baby, a black entertainer and athlete, Albert Einstein who fled the Holocaust and had family die in it... it just shows how vacuous non-intersectional white feminism is. Yeah, the real problem in our world was that women could not be ghouls and psycho CEOs and imperialist generals - but that's been fixed now for the most part so America is great!

I feel like "along came Hilary" is perfect for a meme template.

To be fair, no one destabilized Libya like Hillary did.

Along came Hillary,

whos goddamn black baby is that?

Along came a woman who's entire political career was based on being married to a more successful man.

She broke no barriers herself, and supported no one in breaking any. She campaigned for the anti-Civil Rights guy in 64.

Along came Hillary, and she made a lot of powerful friends in that man's world that while character assassinating anyone that opposed that man's world in a way she didn't like. Some of those powerful friends sometimes took especially young people to a magical island.

Hillary jumpscare

the first woman

Yeah, check your privilege, Jackie Robinson.

Egg Mao

Mao egg

Is that Mao?
