Summary

Following Trump’s election victory, social media saw a surge in misogynistic rhetoric, with phrases like “Your body, my choice” — promoted by figures like white supremacist Nick Fuentes — trending widely.

The Institute for Strategic Dialogue reported a 4,600% spike in misogynistic language on social media and noted that harassment has spilled into schools.

Trump’s win, amplified by Elon Musk’s support, has emboldened “manosphere” influencers, aligning Trump with anti-feminist figures.

This rise in misogyny comes amid other social shifts, such as the election of two Black female senators, a first in U.S. history.

    “If you want roses, one must mind the thorns.”

    They voted for a racist, rapist with felony convictions and a pending prison sentence.

    They may have not wanted to be treated like property but they are going to be. And if they don’t like that, they can leave…except the very people they voted for are removing the ability for women to leave their husbands.

    And even if they leave, even if they get to a safe place, I fucking guarantee you that they will still vote for Republicans.

    If you want to give those women empathy, by all means. These women are about to experience fascism in a way they have never seen before. But don’t think for a second they wouldn’t vote for it again because of their values™.
