Women’s March DC turnout flops after pro-Farrakhan leadership anti-Semitism problems split movement​


https://legalinsurrection.com/2019/...ership-anti-semitism-problems-split-movement/
Organizers expected hundreds of thousands, but estimates are much lower… Embroiled in controversy and losing big donors and backers, the Women’s March has attempted to keep its head above water with this year’s march. However, although Women’s March organizers anticipated hundreds of thousands to show up for their third annual march in DC, this year’s march garnered only “thousands,” according to reports.... As a frame of reference, the first Women’s March in 2017 was widely touted as the “largest single day march in U. S. history.” This year, not so much.
The Washington Post reports: [https://www.washingtonpost.com/loca...ry.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.b300836445a6]
Women from across the country were marching through the nation’s capital Saturday for the third annual Women’s March on Washington, which has been dogged by controversy in the months leading to the event.... The 2019 march is taking place amid turmoil surrounding the national Women’s March organization, including allegations of anti-Semitism, secretive financial dealings and disputes over who gets to own and define the Women’s March. Some organizers have called for its national co-chairs to resign.​

NPR weekend edition news this morning only reported how the nationwide march was moving forward. Not a peep about Jew hating/ethnic chauvinists Mallory or Sarsour.
What's up with Rabbi Mira Rivera? Is she the titular head of Vichy Israel? A Women’s March should be about women, not about supporting murderers, Islamists, or a specific political party.
I wonder how long it will take for this sad bunch of short sighted women to figure out that “Hate” is not something to build on. How do they go about growing their movement when it is nothing but hate? Then again it's a Progressive Marxist Socialist Democrat movement. What else can be expected?
Hmm...., You wouldn’t know by the coverage of the "Woman's March" that it was a gigantic flop failing under the weight of its own racist hatred, or that there was another march recently that was orders of magnitude larger than this one celebrating life. You certainly wouldn’t know from the enemy of the people media that this other march has been going on for years with millions if people of all denominations and persuasions attending it to celebrate the sanctity of all life.


March for Life Crowd Size: How Many Attended the 2019 ...

Today was the annual March for Life rally, where thousands gathered in Washington, D.C. and at sister rallies around the country to protest abortion. The event took place the day before the Women... Although exact crowd numbers aren’t available, organizers said they expected 100,000 people to participate, but some later said as many as 200,000 to 300,000 might have been at the event.... The theme for this year’s march is “Pro-Life is Pro-Science.” View the photos....

Oh god, we're back to pissing matches about crowd sizes.

"I'm correct about my worldview because more people turned up to my rally".

It's just, daft.

How many videos of the March For Life was there on CSPAN??? Oh right, there's already a "media blackout," about it.

Cannot blame women for not wanting to be associated with a bunch of anti-semitic Louis Farrakhan supporters. Even liberal females have their limits.
 
The most important women's march taking place in D.C. is the march to take seats in Congress....and that march is kicking some serious ass.

A bimbo Puerto Rican and a Hamas supporter is not a women's march. It is a cry for help.
 
I went to the Women’s March in Phoenix. There were about 7,000 people there. That was half of what it was last year.

The Phoenix organizers made the decision not to be affiliated with the national group due to the anti-Semitic remarks. The decision meant that the Phoenix march did not receive money, advertising or organizational support from the national group. No matter, they said, they wanted their march to be free of hatred.

It wasn’t about counting heads. It seems to me that it was about continuing the very successful efforts that resulted in state and national gains beginning 2017.

We participate in charity run/walks of different types. They are positive, fun and worthy events that raise money, create awareness and create unity. The Women’s March is becoming one of my favorites. Oddly it seems to be one of the only events that receives such negativity.

So what’s up with Women’s March negativity on DP?

You know who I also wouldn't want to be associated with? People like you who say that female rape victims deserve to be raped.

You have to give democrats credit for not wanting to associate with the anti-semitic fringes of their party.

Most likely, a lot of conservative old white men who can't handle the changes taking place due to the ever increasing numbers and clout females are starting to exercise and enjoy....rightfully so.They don't like the 'changing of the guard. '

I couldn't care less. Nothing is going to stop me from pointing out that you have absolutely no high horse to stand on.

I already apologized for that comment. I am not going to fight a war that has already been waged.

The fact that you cannot forgive people shows how much of a zealot you are.

Sounds like folk are simply pointing out that the pastime is dying, if you need to label commenting on reality negativity whatever but I fail to see how that moves any ball down any field. Much better it is to follow the guidance of my sig because ignorance rarely works out.

CONSERVATIVE MEN SUCK!

EDIT: BTW the original program was not the changing of the guard, what we were aiming for was equality but I like how you are honest and admit that this is no longer what the feminists are after, they need men to be submissive.


I Object!

I don't care if you apologized. As long as you try to pretend that you have some moral high-ground, I will point always point that out.

I'm not going to forgive someone that condones rape, and thinks throwing muslims in internment camps is okay. Sorry, pal.

Now if you can only get Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to apologize for being a "bimbo" and a "Puerto Rican".
 
Farrakhan turned over every rock on the beach a long time ago.
If organizers of a women's march can't bother to do research on people, they're going to keep on winding up with folks like him in their midst.
Part of doing proper research is to rely on one's own critical judgment instead of political pressure from others to meet some sort of quota.

The organizers made some incredibly stupid mistakes and they need to take responsibility for them.
 
The most important women's march taking place in D.C. is the march to take seats in Congress....and that march is kicking some serious ass.

After early promises to be the most transparent administration in history, this has been one of the most secretive. And in certain ways, one of the most elusive.
 
So when your side was attacking Sarah Palin, did you call your brothers and sisters out as misogynists? I think not.

My side? You can disagree with someone's position without referring to them as a "bimbo." It make you look ignorant and someone whose opinion shouldn't be valued.

Obama isn't POTUS anymore. With that said, what exactly does Obama have to do with the the current influx of Democratic women in Congress?
