  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Right-wing media escalate attacks on young women voters following Democratic election wins across the country

A nice selection of pull-quotes following Tuesday's election.

Clay Travis: “They've all gone insane, young women are actually insane in this country”

Fox anchor Martha MacCallum on young women voting for Democrats: “I find that very frightening.”

Newsmax host Rob Schmitt: “Young women in this country have become a very scary demographic.”

Watters ranted: “You’re in a tiny apartment, and the apartment’s getting really expensive because all of these migrants are here now. And it's also expensive because of the Green New Deal, so your utilities are high, and you've got the wrong degree. You should have gotten a degree in, like, chemistry, biology, finance, computer science, something useful in this high-tech AI economy. No, but you got a degree in, like, Southeast Asian feminist literature.”

Fox host Will Cain: So, I've been asking this question for quite some time: What's wrong with white women?”

Newsmax’s Carl Higbie: “This is why I say liberal white women are the biggest threat to America — they will literally vote for their own destruction and take everyone down with them.”

Fortunately, they have a solution for this perfidy.

On Fox & Friends, co-host Brian Kilmeade agreed with Fox Noticias host Rachel Campos-Duffy that the conservative movement should “encourage marriage early” to “get more conservative young women.”

Yeah, I can't imagine why women aren't supporting these guys. :rolleyes:

On a more serious note, that early-marriage idea may not be the solution they're hoping for. Most of my conservative young female classmates who married in their late teens / early 20s after graduating from my conservative Christian high school became divorced women by the time they were 30. They emerged from the conservative Christian bubble and encountered the wide range of possibilities that are open to modern women, and, well.

Perhaps the minimum age for voting should be raced for women.
This is why the defeat of Herschel Walker was such a loss! Imagine what could have been accomplished by now with someone in office advocating for the voting age to be raised to 35!

Misogyny aside, there's some really weird stuff in that rant. How did the Green New Deal raise utility prices? It never even was a law. How did migrants raise rents?

You act like these need to make some sort of sense.

Not a way to win the women’s vote for next time.

Perhaps the minimum age for voting should be raised for women.
Psychologists have proven females hit physical, mental and emotional maturity before males.
So perhaps---no definitely not.
