... you started slavery and had to watch hundreds of thousands of men die before you had to have it forcibly taken away from you

you wouldnt let women vote in the first place. they had to protest and fight for decades before they were even listened to (1/?) https://twitter.com/petersweden7/status/1267129939360432129
