Love to see it.

The old slogan in Norway is that women's struggle is class struggle. It doesn't translate well, but the sentiment certainly applies to the US. Entitled shitstains like Trump and Kavanaugh have raped and molested their way into positions of power since the beginning of civilization, always enabled by the silence, cowardliness, and collaboration of the men around them. Men need to break the silence and riot against this broken fucking culture not only for the sake of women, but also to avoid being ruled by a class of rapist psychos until the end of days.

I feel like feminism went out of fashion lately. Hopefully this will serve as a wake-up call to get people back on track. We're fucking lost without it.

    I'm curious about what you mean by "it doesn't translate well".

    Like, it rhymes in Norwegian? Or the complete meaning doesn't come across?

    I like the slogan even if it doesn't quite translate the way you mean.

    Thanks for sharing that, I'm going to use it.

    In Norway we'd say "kvinnekamp er klassekamp". It's a bit catchier, but more importantly "kvinnekamp" is a more established term than "women's struggle", so I wasn't sure how well it would translate. If it sounds good to native speakers that's of course great!

    “Slut” means “end” in a lot of nordic languages, so…

    I don't know if two qualifies as "a lot", but I guess it is a significant proportion of Scandinavian languages.
