Damn, this brings me back to when Matt Christman used a clown emoji and Gwen Snyder started to cry out that you can't ironically used Nazi imagery, and that Chapo was creating a dirtbag to nazi pipeline.
Yeah, that was wild. I understand that it's a misogynistic trope to say that women are duplicitous liars, but I don't think the snake imagery was ever really associated with that trend. I think most people just get outraged and skip a few steps in their logic, and call you a bad faith actor if you try to get them to check their logic again.
That’s the thing though, no one was saying women were liars, just one particular woman. That’s how libs use idpol, to shield themselves from valid criticism by making it seem like bigotry.
the one good thing to come out of the whole snake is a misogynistic symbol thing was that a convinced a massive radlib that I knew in my sixth form (who would only take away one detail from every 'big' scandal in liberal circles and then proceed to angrily parrot a weird twisted version of it) that the person who was proudly libertarian (and who had ran for the school mock election as the ancap party earlier in the year) actually believed that women belonged in the kitchen and was violently misogynist because he had a load of libertarian snake pin badges and computer stickers and stuff.
It was pretty funny until they somehow ended up dating but then broke up after like a month because sixth form relationships are kind of shit.
Edit: In hindsight I actually kind of feel a bit guilty about it because she was actually a really nice and friendly person

Ooo, remember when snakes were made into the symbol of misogyny overnight because Warren’s debate shenanigans?

It is, but if you lie because or your duplicity then it's yknow, just insulting someone for their actions.
