I think it would be better if your OP stated something like, "look at this nutter. What a stupid idea she has" but instead you go for the all too tired "it's a liberal" agenda trope. Step back and take a breath.
Hasty generalization is an informal fallacy of faulty generalization by reaching an inductive generalization based on insufficient evidence—essentially making a rushed conclusion without considering all of the variables. In statistics, it may involve basing broad conclusions regarding the statistics of a survey from a small sample group that fails to sufficiently represent an entire population.[1] Its opposite fallacy is called slothful induction, or denying a reasonable conclusion of an inductive argument (e.g. "it was just a coincidence").

They scour the internet (newschicken.net???) searching for obscure stories that would normally never see the light of day, and scream like Chicken Little. Bless their little hearts. It gives them something to do I guess.
But you know what, I don't care what you call me... Racist, homophobic, pro life, bigot, whatever alphabet contraption of yours. I don't care. Because what are they ? A platform built by you to position us to attack us . Without it, your just blathering into the wind.

Hows about.... no fathers, no child support........ ahhhhh you don't like that do you, you lazy stupid cow's
And the hits just keep on coming.
Add another piece of evidence to the claim of sexist nonsense spewed in this discussion.
I think, if you look at thr history of liberal PC, he would actually be guilty of lookism, not sexism. He said nothing negative about women in general about women. He made an observation about ugly womens' activities. Lookism. Sound ridiculous? It's a real thing, and guess what? It's a liberal thing.

Ever noticed how this crap usually comes out of the mouths of women that no man can get drunk enough to be with .
How could anyone who says crap like this EVER be accused of sexism.
How unfair.
Good ideas. Hows about every statue we take down, every other holiday we do away with ..... we get a paid holiday at work.... government guaranteed....

I have no problem with getting rid of both mothers day and fathers day. They are just moneymaking scams that businesses made up anyway. I don't think either should be replaced with anything myself, it will save consumers hundred of millions of dollars a year. I hate taking the wife out to dinner on mothers day, she is not my mother yet I have to buy her things.
We can keep Christmas, once a year receiving gifts of things we really do not need is all right.
Maybe getting rid of Halloween would be good, although the people selling costumes and candy and the dentists may disagree.

Once again, I did not claim it eas true, which I hoped would have evident from my purposeful use of the terms "reported" and "reportedly". I did say it is the sort of thing that has come to be expected from a certain grouping.
