They Want To Repeal The 19th Amendment
Summary
The host critiques right-wing men calling for the repeal of the 19th Amendment following the Lindsay Clancy murder trial. He argues that women’s empathy for Clancy’s mental health struggles is being twisted to justify disenfranchising them. The episode highlights how this reaction stems from male insecurity and a lack of empathy, rather than genuine concern for justice.
