It would be nice to live in a world where women were protected, the Washington Wizards made it to the NBA Finals, and Arizona Iced Teas actually cost .99 cents. But that would be a dream, since the way the Eastern Conference is set up the Wizards donโt have a chance, capitalism wonโt let Arizona Iced Tea be great and women will always have to deal with assholes like Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.), who will always be threatened by strong women not willing to take his bullshit.

On Monday, Gosar tweeted an animated video in which he and other Republican lawmakers โincluding Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Lauren Boebert of Colorado, are depicted as heroes from the Japanese anime series Attack on Titan,โ attack members of the Democratic Party; the video even shows Gosarโs character killing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), NBC News reports.
Notice this had to be an animated series because in no world are any of these colostomy collections heroes.
From NBC News:
The post-apocalyptic series revolves around a small civilization that lives in a bordered-off city to protect itself from giant human-like creatures called Titans.
Ocasio-Cortezโs face is superimposed on one of the Titans, who is killed by Gosarโs character.
His character also attacks a Titan with Bidenโs face.
Twitter didnโt remove the video as they wanted everyone to see what a woman-hater Gosar actually is, but they did add a warning label noting that it violated the companyโs rules about โhateful conduct.โ
Ocasio-Cortez tweeted that Gosar is โcreepyโ and criticized GOP leaders.
โAnd heโll face no consequences bc @GOPLeader cheers him on with excuses,โ she wrote, referring to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. โFun Monday! Well, back to work bc institutions donโt protect [women of color].โ
Gosar isnโt new to being a shitty human, heโs always been a shitty human. Heโs a staunch follower of former President Donald Trumpโs teachings and has been one of the many GOP to downplay the failed coup attempt on Congress. Never forget that Gosar is such a horrible person that six of his own brothers and sisters appeared in an ad endorsing his congressional opponent. His family even pushed for him to be removed from office, NBC News reports.
โHappy Monday in America, where@GOPLeader McCarthyโs colleague just posted a video of himself swinging two swords at President Biden. These blood thirsty losers are more comfortable with violence than voting. Keep exposing them,โ Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.), tweeted Monday, tagging McCarthy, NBC News reports.
Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) called Gosarโs actions โsick behavior.โ
โIn any workplace in America, if a coworker made an anime video killing another coworker, that person would be fired,โ Lieu tweeted.
But this is America, and sadly, there are little consequences for white men who threaten violence against women because women will never be protected here.
