   Fascinating. And dangerously apt to fuel everyone’s pet theory — mine is that misogynoir is strong with women too; others will no doubt blame the campaign. Whatever it means, it’s definitely food for thought.

     @inthehands @Voline My gut when I saw the returns and some of the details on downballot initiatives was that more nice white ladies were racist, and more men of color were misogynist than I realized.

     But that said, it feels like the fundamental problem is that us blue state/bubble liberals are failing to talk to folks to the left of us as well as folks who are more traditional. Rolling up the drawbridge and failing to have real conversation with folks we disagree with ain't working.
