There are few things funnier than right-wingers doing the "the left are just using you" lecture to minorities. Like, how are they using them? How are they lying to them? By wanting them to be equal to you? OK, they ain't perfect in this regard, but they are at least trying. What exactly are you offering them other than return to the shitty old days, and expecting them to kiss your feet for removing their rights?

The First Lady equally represented her - and your - country in the 2012 London Olympics: and your country's athletes: both men and women, accounted themselves extremely well, making for a flawless games.
The most appropriate time for me to say this: Checkmate , Lady.
Guess who represented the Queen : the most powerful player in Chess...?!
Most people like that appear to genuinely believe that liberals are "just using them". They honestly think that women and minorities are happier being "put in their place" as lowly servants of the white male. Some of them are even women themselves. Occasionally it's not even about that - less often, they think more along the lines of liberals are tricking straight women and minorities into accepting LGBTQ+ as equals due to "false equivalence" (sure, maybe it's wrong to oppress *you*, but that doesn't mean they're just like you!), as if people would fall into gender norms if only it wasn't for those mean ol' gays. Whichever way, it's all about preserving whatever they feel is "natural" and assuming it's just as natural for those whom they're treating as second-class citizens.
A user named Jeff replied to Lady Checkmate, rather unbelievably, with this:
"That is why President Trump will get more minority votes in 2020 because the failed policies of liberal liars are coming to light"
"That is why President Trump will get more minority votes in 2020 because the failed policies of liberal liars are coming to light"
LOL, yeah, those minorities are just LINING UP to vote for an asshole who calls them criminals and rapists and enables the people who hurt them and push them down, aren't they? Might as well say women are lining up to vote for the Grophenfurhrer based on his amazing pussy-grabbing skills...
Yeeeaah. The right wingers cry that Dems or the supposed "alt-left"can't really offer minority groups anything, then in the next breath they barf up some bigoted crap and cry that "identity politics are destroying us." That is, political issues pertaining to LGBTQ people or women or POC, of course. Repubs love them some white Christian identity politics. Seriously, what do right wing/conservatives think they have to offer any minority group? Like. Seriously.
"They're racist, sexist and silly as heck." I'd say that's some great projection, but that'd be putting it mildly.
Women are not a minority, dolt! And, it's women ourselves that try our hardest to convince society that we want to be treated as equals, not as dainty little child-dolls.
It's not about physical equality, dolt, but equality as to rights, opportunities and responsibilities. Men are not "every bit physically equal to" all men, either.
As women have fewer and weaker rights than men, men would lose rights if they "pretended" to be women. No man would do that, in the long run.
Most men can't handle this:

I'd say it's the alt-rightist that say skin-tone is sinful, not the liberals. The alt-rightist are also much more sexist and silly than the liberals.
Oh yeah, because the Republican Party is sooooo attractive to minorities and women. It's one thing to be occasionally let down by Democrats, but it's still got to be far better than being actively disdained or outright hated by Republicans. Whatever flaws Democrats might have at helping minorities it's still far better than the undercurrent of racism which permeates the GOP.
Furthermore, they've tried to convince AAsvthat our skin cooor is sinful just like their lifestyle choices. They're racist, sexist and silly as heck.
Are you absolutely certain you haven't mixed up Democrats and Republicans?

OIC, so this "alt-left" were running around way back in the Seventies doing all this? WOW! They get around. It couldn't have anything to do with these groups deciding they'd had enough of society's oppression back then, and to do something about it. A well-known chant of protesters in those days:
Also Gingham, I would employ an editor or use spellcheck, if I were you. The only thing more atrocious than your spelling is your knowledge of what's going on, or you're probably lying. The only truthful thing you did say is: ' a biological woman is not equal to men in physical strength'.
"Furthermore, they've tried to convince AAsvthat our skin cooor is sinful just like their lifestyle choices. "
You just went full covfefe. NEVER go full covfefe!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
