Taliban Official Mocks US for Rejecting Kamala Harris: 'Americans Are Not Ready to Hand Over' Country 'to a Woman'
A Taliban official mocked Americans' reluctance to elect a female leader after Donald Trump's 2024 presidential victory.
If Tulsi Gabbard had been allowed to run, I'd have 100% voted for her. Kamala Harris is not the type of woman I want for president. If she were to be the first woman president, we'd never have a woman president again, because everyone would be so put off by her
And the sad thing is they're right.
No they aren't, and with that attitude we will continue to repeat this mistake over and over and over.
The people want change. A lot of change. You can work 40 hours a week and barely scrape by paycheck to paycheck, and it's been like that for years. Housing is even more unaffordable.
Nothing has changed for years.
People are angry.Donald Trump taps into that. That is his whole message. That he is an outsider, he is not the status quo, he is the one who shakes things up. He does not listen to PR people. He says what's on his mind. He is the closest thing to a Bulworth candidate we've had in quite some time.
I personally think he is a liar and a criminal, but not everybody shares that view.
What does Kamala have going for her? She is the vice president, next in line of a succession. There is no radical reform there. It is status quo. And let's not forget that before Biden dropped out and Kamala was crowned successor, she was pulling very low even among Democrats.
The problem is not that America refuses to hand the country over to a woman. The problem is that the DNC keeps putting forward the wrong people as candidates, and expects the whole nation to vote for them simply because they're not Republican. It doesn't work that way.
My point is though, as long as you blame sexism or racism or whatever for Trump's win, you hide the real problem and thus prevent it from being fixed.
It NEEDS to be fixed.
For the good of the country, we (Dems) cannot expect people to just vote for us because we're not Republican. We need to offer them something better. Obama did that. That's why he won. Hope, change, yes we can. That was something better. And so he defeated a real non-crazy Republican.Whoever is the next Democratic candidate, they need to do that. Offer a real message and a real plan. Not just 'I'm not red'.
No. People wanted Michelle Obama but nobody was given a choice.
Like ads saying Harris was too hard on Israel and too soft on Israel coming from the exact same org. Anyone with a lick of sense knows they're disingenuous, but most people are fucking stupid.
Enemy must be strong and weak.
Or like kamalacaust saying she's hard on zionism and also supports zionism.
I’d like to thank the Taliban for their valuable feedback. Next, I’ll ask David Duke for his thoughts on race relations.
Dick Cheney, aghast that Americans could allow someone as Islamophobic as Trump to represent them.
Next up, North Korea laughs at the US for the electoral college not being a direct representation of the wishes of the people.
Damn, even the Taliban is clowning on us with this one.
Should have run Tulsi Gabbard.
I’m sure the response would have been identical though, given this is about sex and not Kamala Harris’s appeal as a candidate.
"You're just like us!"
That's the joke.
Ah the old bad guy cliché. You know they feel threatened when they bust out the "We're the same, you and I!" Lol
I’m deeply confused as to why they have any statement…
And why they think the US is sexist
And why they seem to selectively think sexism is bad while denying women education
And why this is news or worthy of print.
And for gods sakes won’t someone tell me what Ja rule thinks of this?????
Where is Ja Rule when you need him?
Damnit, I knew I was fucking up the bit
I read it as a troll statement. Americans moralize to the world about treating women equally, but Americans also don't want a woman in a position of power, so I read it as the Taliban mocking the u.s for being just like them while being hypocrites
These are the people that just made it illegal for women to talk to each other, right?
Yes that's what they're trolling about. That Americans memorialize but are also anti women
"Virtue and Vice police" lol
idiots who obsess over the Koran and do not understand the least bit that virtue can only come from your own choices, not from coercion, that would be easy for god to do. This is why religion is bullshit. A devout evangelical couldn't spot the antichrist right in front of them.
Achievement unlocked: Mocked by Taliban
Treat women so poorly, that even talibs mock you.
Sort of? I think this was more of a "see, Americans agree, women are shit".
Y’all Queda
The Taliban would have never allowed a woman on the ballot at all so yeah don't need their opinion on this.
It’s not only the taliban, they’re despicable, but the US would never elect a woman, at least that’s what the rest of the world thinks
... And neither are they.
I think that’s the point they are making.. US should be better than the Taliban.
Sucks that America is so shitty now that I can go "Hah! Yeah" to something the cunty-ass taliban said. Should not be possible.
they wouldve been even more derisively vitriolic if she had won
Very “not the onion”.
Hey Taliban, have you tried Fumunda cheese? It's pretty flavorful.
