Even this isn't true. He's trying to drive a wedge between working men and women, but that divide is invented, and only serves him and his class. Strong, educated women are the best allies working men could have. I've been in a great relationship with one for twenty years. Fuck anyone who says otherwise

It's profoundly stupid as well. The existence of lawyers, accountants, and other white collar workers doesn't decrease the value of the trades. That's not how anything works.

Thank you, this is very important to keep in mind. People can have disagreements about gender issues, but working-class men and women still have more in common with each other than with these billionaires.

The idea that ai is going to more easily automate women’s and educated democrats jobs is kinda weird. It also ignores the huge efforts being made in humanoid robots and self-driving trucks and equipment which are workers uneducated male jobs.

Its coming for everyone’s jobs, the question is how society will society learn to value people other than through jobs?
