I used conditional language to note that my statement wasn’t all encompassing and covered everything you just said, and the argument is that liberalism gave women all these things which - depending on the country - in the US isn’t true. Not sure what you’re trying to argue other than restating what I already said other than adding “laws were passed”, which also isn’t true for some of these.
My issues is that you are down playing the severity of women's oppression in the and the progress that has been made towards equitable rights and equitable treatment under the law.
you used the phrase "a bunch of these" which implies that great than half weren't laws or rules, and that is not true. Most (greater than half) were rules or policies. Additionally, this meme is very clearly about US politics, so don't pretend its not.
In no way shape or form did I downplay anything, nor was that my intent. I clearly stated there were societal issues that kept women down, and anything beyond that is what you chose to read into it. I threw reference of other countries in because I don’t know where you are and was trying to avoid pedantry, and I can see you’re straddling the fence between your own conditional language while attacking mine with pedantry. Ridiculous, you’re just looking for a fight. I’m done here.
