Kobi, I have often loved your posts, sometimes because the ideas you present make me look at a larger picture, or a different view than I may have otherwise considered. I wanted to say something here, though, that I am not, in any way, trying to antagonize or bait. I am honestly trying to understand your actions (specifically, voting for Trump), because this is really confusing me.

Actions speak louder than words.

If you believe that it is truly "even more detrimental", as a woman and feminist, to support people who would only further victimize you more, then why, on G-d's little green acre, would you, as a woman and avowed feminist, support and vote for a known abuser/oppressor (Trump)?? Especially when you know he is going to make things far worse for you and your sisters. Your words don't jive with your actions. Is there some other reason, which you are not saying, as to why you voted for Trump??

Really, it would seem that your claim of being such a staunch and engaged feminist, is in direct and obvious conflict with the act of voting for and supporting someone with such an egregious history of disrespecting women and making vile comments, such as "grabbing them by the p*ssy", etc. Can you honestly see other staunch feminists voting for and/or supporting Donald Trump?? For what plausible reason could this ever happen?? In whose universe?? Are you really a feminist?? I want to understand. That's all I'm trying to get at, here.

I don't think I'm the only confused member here.
