Miserable liberal women

Young women on the left are cast as unhappy and unhinged, and their lopsided vote for one party is taken as a symptom of what is wrong with them rather than a choice.

โš ๏ธ A story people tell, not a claim that it's true.

A motif is the shape of a story as its tellers tell it, named the way a folklorist names a tale type, so the same story told about other people, by the other side or in another year lands in the same place. Some of the claims below are true, many are false. Arguing against a story is often a story of its own, its answer (Voter fraud is answered by Voter suppression, Lawfare by No one is above the law), and we file it there; where no answer has a motif yet, the arguments against a story sit with its tellings.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Who it came up with

the shows we follow where its claims came up (0 left-leaning, 0 center, 4 right-leaning so far), colored by the show's lean; the bar is how many of its claims each one heard

  1. ๐Ÿ˜ Clay Travis & Buck Sexton 2 claims
  2. ๐Ÿ˜ Ruthless 1 claim
  3. ๐Ÿ˜ The Matt Walsh Show 1 claim
  4. ๐Ÿ˜ Timcast IRL (podcast) 1 claim

"Came up on" means one of its claims was heard on the show: told, reported or argued against. We don't yet mark which. Show leans are our own grouping of the shows we transcribe.

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ In so many words

the words that carry it

๐Ÿ’ฌ the tellers' own words: โ€œa significant base of this vote is like the left wing lunatic... white, female, college educatedโ€ โ€œemotionally unstable, very online true crime womenโ€ โ€œsome things might even be more wrong with young womenโ€ โ€œthe crazy left wing women are the base of the Democrat Party.โ€ โ€œthis is part of Democrats' effort to mobilize the emotionally unstable female base of the Democrat Partyโ€ โ€œYoung, miserable, insane women are the domestic beating heart of the Democrat Partyโ€
