Somebody probably had to take some Dramamine after that dizzying spin.
Oh, so THAT's what @iamsambee was doing when she called Ivanka Trump a "c***" for taking a picture with her child. It was FEMINISM! https://t.co/iA2ag80yeR

These women want to reclaim it, only to justify its usage against someone they hate. It's not "reclaiming it". It's "I want to be a jerk, and I want my behavior to be socially acceptable." https://t.co/0VyIP95Im5
