Summary
A video encouraging women to vote independently for Kamala Harris sparked outrage among conservative men, who called it divisive and “amoral.” The video highlights the gender gap that has widened between Harris and Trump, with recent polls showing notable leads by Harris among women and Trump among men.
Critics like Charlie Kirk labeled it “nauseating,” criticizing the wife for lying to “her sweet husband who probably works his tail off to make sure that she can go and have a nice life and provides for the family.”
Supporters argue it reflects real tensions around women’s autonomy, especially in conservative households.

This is why you should know who you marry before you get married.
Stop letting regressive religion control your lives.
Religious people typically enforce their oppression with abuse and violence.
Next up, they’re going to try and force women into wearing bedsheets cuz, you know, they can’t keep it in their pants when they see a modestly attractive woman go by in normal clothes.
They’ll probably soon start suggesting women shouldn’t hear other women’s voices. Very Taliban. Very cool. -GOP
Y’all’kaida
That’s so weird that the nazi husbands who would give their wife a black eye for voting for kamala would fly into a rage about something.
As we always said when the Volunteers lost to Alabama: “Lot of women are going to be falling down stairs tonight.”
It wasn’t funny then either :(
A lot of doors are gonna carelessly be left open 🫤
Waiting for the article from the NYT about how this is bad for Harris’ polling with police officers.
It’s bonkers that the people who can’t stfu about FREEDOMS are the ones who want to strip everyone else’s away
That headline again: “Party of Snowflakes Melt”
LOL does this come in a bumper sticker?
Good.
Awww your wife isn’t your property?? 😢
The guy who helped create the ad even says
“They took a person’s sanctity of their ballot and turned it into a conversation about men owning the behaviors of the women in their life,” Pagitt said. “And like, well, I didn’t think you were going to make our point for us. We’re very grateful that you did.”
we’re entering a dangerous territory where women are being treated like people … think of where this slippery slope can go … /s
Before ya know it, the frogs are gay!
It’s not hiding when it’s supposed to be a secret. A woman voting her own beliefs should be the first step out of that kind of controlling relationship.
I have a relative who lives in subsidized housing and just got a new neighbor who is freshly divorced due to his wife being a Democrat. Sounds like she won for sure because from what I hear about this dude he sounds like a miserable, insufferable individual
“you might have to give your female properties an extra black eye tonight!”

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., joined the criticism Thursday, telling Fox News that Democrats are telling wives to lie to their husbands: “What kind of a totally amoral, corrupt, sick system have the Democrats developed?”
Ah yes, the guy who has cheated on multiple wives is talking about amorality and corruption.
it’s not “cheating” if the husband does it. it’s “the wife is being frigid and insufferable and i had no choice but to fuck whoever else”
from the party of “it’s not rape if he’s your husband”
He’s not the only conservative paragon of virtue that’s having a hissy-fit over it either:
Fox News host Jesse Watters said on the air last week that if his wife did the same as the women in the ad, it would violate “the sanctity of our marriage.”
“If I found out Emma was going into the voting booth and pulling the lever for Harris, that’s the same thing as having an affair,” Watters said, a remark that prompted many online to call him out for his marital affair, which he admitted to in 2018.
Not just an affair, an affair with his current wife he was calling out. Who he started the affair by being a massive stalker and letting air out of her tires so she’d ask him for a ride.
That ad was gold. Brilliant idea.
Party that repealed Roe v Wade and constantly talks about shooting liberals is now angry that their wives might be afraid of telling them how they vote, more news at 10
Wow, who knew the fascist party supporters would be against women having political autonomy.
Literally not true lol
What isn’t?
I don’t know of any conservatives “enraged” with this ad lol
You are not on social media much then lol

This week, the fundamentalist Christian pastor Dale Partridge argued in a series of tweets that “in a Christian marriage, a wife should vote according to her husband’s direction”. In other words, he pits his version of the religion against the constitution, which, since the 19th amendment passed a century ago, guarantees adult citizens the right to vote regardless of sex. He argues that in marriage, the husband annexes and owns his wife’s voice and rights, so that he in effect gets two votes and she gets none. The far-right preacher is not alone in this argument that women should not have the right to participate in public life and act on their views and values.
Jesse Watters, the Fox News personality, has argued that if he found out his wife “was going into the voting booth and pulling the lever for Harris, that’s the same thing as having an affair”. It violates “the sanctity of our marriage; what else is she keeping from me?” Rightwing agitator Charlie Kirk also got upset about the idea that women might vote according to their agenda and not their husband’s.
And I’ve never seen Australia, therefore it doesn’t exist
“If your husband is mad at this ad, then this ad was made for you.”
I’m mad that it’s 2024 and this ad needs to exist
I’m mad it’s 2024 and we need to check notes
Make sure women don’t have rights stripped away
And I’m just mad that it’s 2024!
Right? The 20th century ended almost a quarter of a century ago. So mad.
Yes. Yes, rage against this. Feed your anger. How dare they?!?!?! Feed the Streisand effect. Spread this idea. Let it engage you!! Oh, I know. Rant about it to your wife. Tell her all about this evil idea. Tell her what those other independent women are doing. Yeah. Get good and mad /S
