You're making lots of idiotic assumptions about what I believe about women. If it makes you feel any better, I agree the direction we've gone hasn't been all sunshine and rainbows for women and for society in general.

I was making fun of Fash's claim that the cultural changes we've seen were some top-down agenda perpetrated by elite liberals, which is retarded. FDR & LBJ and their policies were the product of the spirit of their times, not the other way around.

This, particularly the last sentence, is intersting. Your previous posts seem to suggest that you hold FDR and LBJ in high regard, but here you seem to suggest that you disagree their policies. which is it? Mixed?

Wouldn't the world be a shitty place if we could only judge things in a binary fashion? Yes, no. Good, bad. It sure would be a lot simpler, and that's why black and white thinking is one of the hallmarks of a weak mind.

I do hold FDR and LBJ in high regard. I also disagree with some of their policies.

That is what I am asking ^^ Was hoping you'd expand, because I've never seen you express any form of dislike for them or their policies. Curious which you like and which you have issue with.

LBJ's administration severely mismanaged the American war effort in Vietnam, and he opened the floodgates for immigration.

FDR interned hundreds of thousands of innocent Japanese for no real good reason. He attempted a corrupt Supreme Court powergrab. Although I admire that FDR was the closest thing to a fascist the US has ever had, except maybe Lincoln.

Oh, I thought there may have been more to it because the comment had followed discussion on family and women's rights. Thought maybe there was some social policy related to those that you might have taken issue with.

My main policy disagreement with LBJ would probably have to be his assassination policy on JFK. I didn't agree with that policy :/
