it’s like cargo cult feminism. they lack any understanding of or desire for genuine liberation, but they feel the need to engage with a hollow, ritualized mimicry of third wave feminism as the only remaining rationale for their preferred candidate. she is a woman, and therefore will be the first woman president, and therefore a vote for harris is necessarily a vote for the advancement of the cause of gender liberation, please ignore the ongoing genocide.

and because there’s no theory underlying any of this, all they can do is grasp at the aesthetics of a cultural touchstone from last year. barbie aesthetics are apparently inherently feminist now because of the barbie movie, i guess. there’s probably a relevant baudrillard quote about signs and simulacra.

it’s patronizing, infantilizing, and completely dismissive of the material concerns of women around the world.

Because its doing the “👏 more 👏 female 👏 drone 👏 pilots! 👏” Thing, but also made it pink because pink=woman Barbie woman is brat

saw it in someone’s yard, then found a photo of the exact sign online to post
