Anybody know what a Femifascist is?

I think they are the newest threat to our society - according to the religious right.

I'm afraid I might be one - but I thought I'd check and see what you think they are.

2. Sounds like most indubitable a term invented by people who neither understand the definition of

The words "Feminist" and "Fascist."

3. Kinda like a "feminazi", I guess...

All just attempts by the religious right to demonize women who simply want to be treated as equals in our society. Heaven forbid! :sarcasm:

7. So it's a woman with a personality?

Wouldn't that be most of us?

I never did get that bit about letting men be the decision makers. I worked in business too long.

A whole lot of women do it better!

16. You are probably more right than you know....

I'd give her props for being a strong, freethinking woman, but she is most assuredly the darling of the neo-Cons (and classically-defined Fascists) like the PNAC-HateRadio-BushCo.-FauxSnooze crowd.

Her "objectivist" philosophy is one of the things at the core of Neo-conservatism (oddly, along with religious extremism, which she would have denounced).

8. Oh, well that lets me out. I'm liberal and prochoice but I support

Edwards.

Whew! I was pretty worried there for a minute.

10. Yea, I wonder what he thinks of women? Probably not much.

It is still that good ole boy mentality that most conservative men have.

Sometimes they pretend to listen to women but they really don't. To them its just kind of yaadaa, yaadaa, yaadaa.

9. You would need to check with the gasbag (aka Rush) on that.

He has declared himself the expert on all matters of that sort. He will offer something which will not necessarily be the truth but which will certainly be accepted by millions of delusional fools as fact.

12. Don't know where it came from. But I've been hearing it a lot

lately.

I should go over to Freeperville and see what they have to say. I'm sure they would have an opinion.

13. bwahaha - Libby Dole? Elaine Chao? it would mean women using their

power to merge the powers of govt and corporations for great financial gain - thrown in with some totalitarian means of merging those powers and keeping everyone else under stict control.

These folks don't even have a clue as to the meanings of words that they throw together as epitaths.

15. Apparently the original term was feminazi

and Limpballs changed it to femifacsist. Greatest threat to you society is the religious right.
