New Covid19 stimulus bill has 15 women-only provisions, ZERO men-only provisions. For example, grants to help small businesses "shall prioritize awarding grants to eligible entities that are small business concerns owned controlled by women."

ctwise12 · 2021-02-21T19:18:19+00:00

Why did they make any part women-only is my question. Any woman who thinks this is ok is part of the problem.

“It’s a bummer these people don’t get help but we do but oh well what are you gonna do”

No surprise, we're going to see a lot of discrimination against men to come.

Question is, what is the benefit of excluding men? Why is excluding men considered a "feminist" or "progressive" thing to do?

seraph85 · 2021-02-21T19:48:09+00:00

Makes no sense considering that men's jobs have been more severely affected.

TheSpaceDuck · 2021-02-21T22:45:15+00:00

It makes sense since women were the ones losing most jobs during the pandemic... oh wait it's the other way around.

And yes, the grammatical error is faithfully reproduced from the actual text:

(A) IN GENERAL.—During the initial 21-day period in which the Administrator awards grants under this subsection, the Administrator shall prioritize awarding grants to eligible entities that are small business concerns owned controlled by women (as defined in section 3(n) of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 632(n))) ...

Lusiric · 2021-02-21T22:28:29+00:00

Isn't that particularly illegal?

Nathanthebest04 · 2021-02-21T20:44:05+00:00

Just looked through, 90% of the things including women are specifically for pregnant women so in this case I wouldn’t say there is FULLY an agenda, but the women business is where they fucked it big time and is largely unnecessary

BeastMcQueen · 2021-02-21T21:35:05+00:00

I love living in a patriarchy where women get no bonuses or rights and men are treated like kings. /s

Seriously how are they still going on about the patriarchy when it seems more like the matriarchy?

2021-02-21T21:41:59+00:00

This isn’t even constitutional

higgs456 · 2021-02-21T20:49:57+00:00

Women did disproportionately lose jobs, but guess what, it brought unemployment to the same level MEN ALREADY HAD. Men had significantly more unemployment for a while and no one cared.

edit: This was my source: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/11/women-account-for-100percent-of-jobs-lost-in-december-new-analysis.html

It seems the BLS's stats people have been posting are more direct and less biased than what was in the article, even when I was just looking at the percentages in it to try to get past the bias.

seraph85 · 2021-02-21T23:14:58+00:00

Isn't discrimination based on sex against the law?

LilPolishSausage · 2021-02-21T20:51:59+00:00

Somehow women are minorities, women receive the VAST majority of assistance from both governments and employers. This shouldn't be a surprise with a left-wing president (and his teams), the whole social justice bs and pushing minorities to the front especially during Black History Month.

melchen2905 · 2021-02-21T21:15:57+00:00

I identify myself as a woman

Dls95405 · 2021-02-21T23:18:14+00:00

Just fucking disgusting. How do women not see the incredible injustice?

jeff_the_nurse · 2021-02-21T21:25:23+00:00

And we’re the ones mainly dying 🤷‍♂️

thatgirlanya · 2021-02-22T00:45:02+00:00

Idk why they can’t just give money to all small businesses that make less than x amount of money? This is getting disturbing at this point. What are they implying that female small businesses don’t have that men’s have??

goback2halfchan · 2021-02-21T22:36:09+00:00

I wonder how many businesses will overnight become women owned/controlled?

YesAmAThrowaway · 2021-02-21T22:25:14+00:00

Might as well identify as female and demand money at this point. :(

Ulfgeir_Tambarskjelv · 2021-02-22T03:22:35+00:00

Stupid Liberal administration will be stupid Liberal administration.

GltyUntlPrvnInncnt · 2021-02-22T17:59:52+00:00

Gynocentrism and male disposability. Business as usual.

KingKookus · 2021-02-21T21:49:24+00:00

Identify as a woman. Boom

Ungrateful_bipedal · 2021-02-22T00:10:17+00:00

My taco truck identifies as a woman.

Mario6416 · 2021-02-21T23:29:32+00:00

Oh but men have privilege, they can just bounce back.

/s

omegaphallic · 2021-02-21T23:37:39+00:00

Sue, its the only way to fix this.

so_ping_cock · 2021-02-22T02:46:22+00:00

When is enough. This shit needs to end.

SpaceHorsePanda · 2021-02-22T22:11:40+00:00

White women are the most privileged class in the country.

quesoburgesa · 2021-02-21T22:01:52+00:00

Modern world is making my pretty misogynistic

ShutupPussy · 2021-02-22T01:20:08+00:00

I searched and saw 15 mentions for "women", is that what you're referring to? 12 of those related to pregnancy and postpartum women. The other mentions were for small business which I don't agree with but that was the only one.

benderXX · 2021-02-22T00:17:54+00:00

It’s what feminism calls equality

Cash3603 · 2021-02-21T19:10:29+00:00

That's what you get with a illegitimate libtard government

DarkLink_Xx · 2021-02-22T00:22:34+00:00

Where does it state that, I don’t have time to read the entire thing.

avalinaadlr · 2021-02-22T03:10:33+00:00

Am i the only one who thinks there shouldn’t be grants at all? Give us our money and we’ll support what businesses we want...

Ken1KenObie · 2021-02-22T04:39:38+00:00

That's it I quit

jesuswasaloner · 2021-02-22T04:59:38+00:00

Are you guys making sure to vote out the ones that conjured this up? That's the solution. Spread the word. Eliminate all who've done this. Lessens the chances of it happening more.

Mrbipartite · 2021-02-22T10:42:45+00:00

And the biggest problem is ... you can not do anything. We are just talking about the problem again and again with no or very very little improvement.

fruitmeme · 2021-02-22T13:44:11+00:00

Interesting how men made up the majority of COVID casualties yet of course somehow women are treated as more of the victims.

Fun_Team_1727 · 2021-02-24T14:44:14+00:00

What a popularity contest the democratic senate must be.
