It seems like a stupid statement that deserves to be made fun of, which it is, but it’s also indicative of one of the dark parts of the conservative mindset. There’s the bigotry of course, but there’s another layer on top of that. It’s like, since you are obviously one of the good true Americans (a straight white male, naturally), it is beneath you to submit to being ruled by one of those “others.”
Submission to a weak inferior sub-human leader is a weak and cowardly act. It is also an insult to your fellow nobles, so you are betraying yourself and “your people” by voting for somebody who is clearly not the right type of person.
Repeat and reinforce this shit over years and decades, make it part of your group identity, and you get things like “better a Russian/felon than a Democrat” (because democrats love being cucks for “diverse” people obviously) and a deep-seated visceral reaction to somebody who is an other in so many ways. A woman AND multiple nonwhite races, oh my!

Very similar to the mindset of: if you don’t drive a pickup truck you are a homosexual
That’s the little first domino in the meme, at least. Then it works up to something like allowing homosexuals to exist, and suffering the presence of their supporters for that matter, also makes you a homosexual.
Wow, those people are indeed weird.

Amazed trans-folks don’t go with the cheaper option.
“Dr’s hate this one trans trick!”

transphobes: men can’t become women
cis man: votes for a woman
transphobes: omg you became a woman!
I voted for a woman once. I grew a fantastic pair of tits before I’d even left the voting station.
But don’t worry, vote for a man next time and you grow your testicles back again.
I do miss those tits though.
Extremely fragile far-right snowflakes. It must suck to have such a fragile ego that it drives every decision. Basically an NPC at that point.
I suppose it saves on lugging his brain around
Surely it can’t be that dumb?
“I heard the scientists say the other day that when a man votes for a woman, he actually transitions into a woman.”
Ok, it’s that dumb.
Doing a great job of not being weird.
It’s not dumbness, it’s cravenness. He’s saying things he thinks MAGA-bros like to hear. “Yeah brother, high-five! Burn those libs!”
Also the subtext here is that Jeff Bridges isn’t manly. I don’t think there’s a cure for that level of delusion.
I was talking with some scientists who told me that a mere touch on the hand from Jeff Bridges not only impregnates a woman, but also transitions her into a man.
I wake up each morning hairless, then I look into the mirror and speak the name Jeff Bridges three times. Instantly I’m transformed into a kind of human carpet covered from head to toe in three whole feet of man fur.
And each morning you really tie the bathroom together!
So there is a way to change your gender!
And it’s so easy too!
voter suppression intensifies
The pundit was making fun of a record-breaking “White Dudes for Harris” fundraising call on Tuesday’s episode of The Five when he questioned why “any man would vote Democrat,” claiming that it would have to be because of “mommy issues.”
“It’s not the party of virtue, security — it’s not the party of strength — it’s definitely not the party of family. And to be a man and then vote for a woman just because she’s a woman is either childish — that person has mommy issues — or they are just trying to be accepted by other women,” Watters said. “I heard the scientists say the other day that when a man votes for a woman, he actually transitions into a woman.”
I was thinking that that last line could be a joke, but I would need to hear the delivery. You never know
I wouldn’t call nonsensical vitrol a joke exactly, even though the socially accepted response to it is often laughter. It’s not funny, they’re just trying to successfully out-group with each other. Ape brain stuff. Smiles and laughter saying “yes we are in the same in-group.”
Dude needs to look into who Margaret Thatcher was and her politics. See how much that gums up his brain gears, because, even outside the fact she was a woman, she was a conservative’s ultimate fantasy.
To give three things off the top of my head that might make modern Cons sour on her: She accepted the science on climate change, wanted the UK in the EU, and ceased arms sales to Israel in 1982 due to the invasion of Lebanon.
She’s not culture wars enough for them, even if she was economically ruinous, just as they desire.
What they really want is a Thatcher Mechagodzilla who spouts all the culture wars lines they want, has huge stomping feet that kill poor people, and fires detransitioning lasers from its eyes. It can also be AI powered and take away the need for any thinking or education at all.
So either women are the stronger sex because they don’t transition when they vote for men or all men that had sex with women that voted are gay.
I can absolutely see these fucking galaxy brain jagoffs saying you’re gay if you sleep with a voting woman.
I’m sure you are right because in their minds women should be pumping out kids and be in the kitchen and have no business doing anything else.
