I love how so many men in the comments are butt hurt by this comparison. Almost as if it hit the nail right on the head.
You are aware that 52% of white women voted for trump and that he won the popular vote by nearly 5 million votes (72,656,451 for trump, 67,978,280 for Harris) between both that is 140,634,731 votes. So 1% would be 1406347.31. so trump won by about 3% popular vote.
Blaming specifically men and exclusively, is what pisses them off.
America is sexist and racist.
"Fascism won. Better continue feeding into the race, gender, and class wars that majorly helped cause it to happen in the first place."
You tell me as a response of me calling out gender war. Good one.
I'm mockingly quoting the people you are responding to.
Didn't catch that sorry.
Maybe compare similar demographics, because woman between 19-29 didn't. At least not in the states where it matters (because the popular vote doesn't matter for the US election).

Then why are you talking about the popular vote of men then? Weird double standard there.
And I am not talking about a "similar" demographic because you miss the point. Why do you focus on men? Why not on white women? Why not on the general population?
Because that's not what the original meme is about.
So just to get you straight, you make fun of men for being upset at the "meme" for push gender war non sense. When I critic you over you also push gender war non sense, you tell me that it isn't about the popular vote and when I point out that the exit polls are effectively popular votes. And ask, why aren't you talking about the popular vote of white woman but focus on men? Pointing out your gender war non sense, your defence is "I just engage in gender war non sense of the meme and push those ideas". Okay
