Today is International Women’s Day, which according to the website devoted to the day, is all about celebrating women and their awesome contribution to the world.
Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women’s equality. Collectively we can all #EmbraceEquity.
Celebrate women’s achievement. Raise awareness about discrimination. Take action to drive gender parity.
IWD belongs to everyone, everywhere. Inclusion means all IWD action is valid.
Elsewhere on the website is this reminder:
Collective action and shared ownership for driving gender parity is what makes International Women’s Day impactful. Gloria Steinem, world-renowned feminist, journalist and activist once explained “The story of women’s struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights.” So make International Women’s Day your day and do what you can to truly make a positive difference for women.
And yet here’s what Melania Trump had to say about International Women’s Day.
“On International Women’s Day, we are reminded that all women have unique gifts to share with the world, and we must lift each other up to achieve our collective goals and dreams. #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2023“
What exactly has the third Mrs. Trump done to lift other women up? What goals and dreams has she achieved? Marrying a rich old man? Posing for nude photos? Making excuses for her husband when he ripped immigrant children from their parents and wearing a jacket emblazoned with the words, I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO YOU? What has she “shared” with the world other than her heartless disregard for everyone who isn’t part of her elite social circle?
Social media took Melania to task for her bullshit tweet, and reminded her that she’s just as full of crap as we all suspected.
