Gutfeld: The Hijacking of White College-Educated Women's Politics

Political Leanings of White Women vs. Men

• 🎯 A new poll suggests Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is adored by college-educated white women, who are drawn to his perceived appeal and 'smoldering sexuality'.
• ⚠️ This admiration is contrasted with their strong dislike for Donald Trump, creating a political divide primarily between white women and white men.
• 📈 White men without college degrees tend to favor Trump and Republicans, while opposing DEI and Zelenskyy, mirroring a reversal of traditional political alignments.

Misplaced Empathy and Activism

• 💡 The discussion highlights a pattern of misplaced empathy, citing examples like support for a CEO shooter and the Manson family, suggesting a tendency to 'swoon over' certain male figures.
• 🚩 This is framed as a 'hijacking' of the maternal instinct, where activism, such as supporting BLM or protesting, becomes a low-effort virtue signal without understanding real-world consequences like crime and destruction.
• 💸 Young women are described as seeking agency through activism, but it often leaves them financially strained, especially when they later rely on others to cover costs like college degrees.

Conservative vs. Liberal Women

• ✅ Research indicates conservative women are less likely to view themselves as victims, catastrophize public events, and are more likely to prioritize marriage and family.
• 📉 Conversely, liberal women are characterized as drowning in resentment and misery, often enabled by the Democrat Party.
• 🧠 The panel questions the susceptibility of white women, particularly the overeducated, to these political and emotional trends, contrasting their current activism with past practicality.

The Nature of Activism and Relationships

• 🚀 Activism is described as a 'crusade' that women fall for, whether it's climate change or other causes, often from a position of safety and financial security.
• 💔 The conversation touches on relationships, suggesting women can be unpredictable and difficult to understand, leading to a preference for monogamy and a desire for 'silence' as a respite.
• 🗣️ The panel concludes that while many white women are fine, those who are activists exhibit problematic behaviors and political leanings.
