Unlike in 2016 and 2020, the radical Women’s March now sees how it has worked itself into a lonely corner by using imagery such as enslavement of women in its march paraphernalia.

The People’s March in Anchorage on Saturday at 1 p.m. is advising its marchers to follow the guidelines developed by the Women’s March for this year. The group recommends the following for protesters: Don’t go overboard because you’re alienating normal people who don’t want to associate with you:

“Please join us for a People’s Rally in Anchorage town square with speakers and music followed by a day of action with our event collaborators at Williwaw. We will hear from organizations about the work they are doing within our community and opportunities for participants to sign up to help work with organizations to better represent and support our community. Now more than ever we need community and to take action and that means we need YOU!

“We welcome you to bring signs and friends as we join together in unity and resistance. 
“Below you’ll find sign guidelines provided by Women’s March. 

“We ask you to please note these guidelines when making your signs for the Rally:

“We ask you to please err on the side of unity and avoid symbols and language that alienate parts of our community. 

  • “No coathangers – we do not want to accidentally re-enforce the Right Wing talking points that self-managed abortions are dangerous, scary and harmful. 
  • “No Handmaid’s Tale – The use of Handmaid’s Tale imagery to characterize the controlling of women’s reproduction has proliferated, primarily by white women across the country, since the show has gained popularity. This message continues to create more fragmentation, often around race and class, because it erases the fact that Black women, undocumented women, incarcerated women, poor women, disabled women have always had their reproduction controlled in this country. It’s not some dystopic future or past. This is just a heightened attack.  We cannot list actions on our map that use Handmaid’s Tale imagery or language, as it is not aligned with our values. Refusal to respect this guideline will be grounds for removal from this action, and other potential future actions. 
  • “No female slavery messaging – The current state of reproductive rights is not akin to the United States’ history of slavery. Comparing the current state of reproductive rights to slavery minimizes the immense amount of violence, generational damage, and the scale to which the United States harmed Black and Indigenous people. This messagining is not inclusive and not accurate.

“DO NOT USE: ‘Safe, legal, and rare’ as it is stigmatizing and contends that abortion is not something that should be happening, thus it should be rare and reduced. There will be as many abortions as there need to be. The anti-abortion movement does not get to dictate who has abortions and why.”

Across America, Democrats are revving up to have marches and protests of the inauguration of Donald Trump as president, which takes place on Monday in Washington, D.C.

Last year, Anchorage Assemblywoman Karen Bronga wore a “Handmaid’s Tale” costume as her official attire for an Assembly meeting, play-acting a concubine from a fictional work by Margaret Atwood, in protest of Donald Trump. Read more about that and “What not to wear” at this link:

  1. If they want to get attention, I recommend they: fast, workout, bathe, dress respectively – appropriately, no tattoos – piercing – colored hair, and get-off the feed bag!!!

  2. The cult designed for women by American corporations is what initiated the concept that having children and raising families is enslavement.

    Freedom is defined by being owned and devoting their lives to soulless corporations, sacrificing the strongest motivation to have children for profits of executives. An empty career of servitude.

    • Yeah, I don’t think so. Your myopic dissertation is vacant of perspective. To attempt to cram the pro-abortion crowd into that bag negates the myriad of real reasons that some women want to abort their babies and in doing so removes the focus on what needs to be combated.

      • Richard, the “pro abortion” is a very large and varied “crowd”, including the Fed and most state governments that evolves over the decades.

        In the US the concept started as a means to exterminate non-Whites, including the sterilization and forced abortion programs used by the BIA against downstates Natives. The organized rape of male and female children in Alaska boarding schools to destroy generational family cohesion was a conceptually related offshoot from the sick thinking of abortion proponents.

        My comment focused on the private/government abortion industrys’ current corporate support because it targets high income women from the elite class. If our culture is to change and respect human life and support solid families, changing the perspective of the ruling class is essential and a good place to start.

        We live in pseudo feudal, top down society, which has no indications of changing.

  4. Poor handmaid/concubine Bronga… that weird episode of play-acting and costuming at a muni Assembly meeting will be impossible for any of us to forget. I wondered, then, if she was mentally well, and I hoped that her family would comfort and nurture her throughout that crisis. In any case, muni officials ought to look for a bon-fide theater stage when they must act out their despair in public.

  5. No Handmaid’s Tale imagery? I guess that makes sense because it’s mostly white women getting abortions in Alaska.

    • You don’t understand the words coming out of your own mouth… it was projection. You told on yourself, an adult would know better.

      Maturity only has one meaning. Maturity is an emotional skill. Conservatives repress their feelings or they take them out on others.

      Hello, child.

  9. I am still waiting for a radical leftist to explain to me how killing an unborn fetus constitutes “reproduction”, as in “reproduction rights”. I know of no species that reproduces via the killing of its unborn. But perhaps one of you radical leftist extremists can enlighten me.

    Cman? Whidbey the Dog? Frank Rast? Come on, this should be easy for you, yes?

    • Typical liberal doublespeak. A couple of other examples are Planned Parenthood where they kill your baby so you are NOT a parent. Affordable Health Care Act where they doubled the cost of healthcare.

  11. Stupid people do stupid things. Like voting for democrats, murdering babies, protecting criminals and perverting Children’s minds. Or pretending to be oppressed. What a bunch of stupid people. Shun them.

  12. The verbiage in the dress code is ironic. According to the Ohio State Senate, the first planned Parenthood abortion clinic was raised in a black community. Furthermore, 20 million black babies have died to this ‘abortion’ practice since 1973. If the group truly cared for the black community, it would not be pushing the killings. Instead, it would push parenting classes.

  13. Sounds like they want to appear to be rational creatures.

    I hate to break it to you ladies, but believing you have a “right” to pay someone to kill the child in your womb is delusional at best.

    • They do not believe that.
      They believe they have a right to force other people to pay for the destruction of their babies.

    • Who has the right to be inside of your body without your permission?

      I’ll wait.

      If men wanted to stop abortion, they’d stop leaving their semen inside of vaginas. You just want control. You’re all fools.

      • S: if women don’t want an abortion, they should close their legs first. After women get pregnant, it is no longer their body. They have to live with the RESPONSIBLITY of getting pregnant.

        Please don’t say “butwhataboutisim” rape cases. Its rare.

  14. We love it when the left lunatics gather to protest! Too bad they don’t want to show their faces!
    Cuz most of them —“look a like a mannnn” hahahaha

  15. Unhinged. The left is not Grounded in Reality. If they actually cared about women they would be outraged at the human trafficking into the US over the past 4 years. Women and children Sex trafficked is Slavery. They would be out raged at the Drug deaths caused by the open border, Where is the outrage? Instead they spew lies about women not being able to get abortions. They forced girls to share sports and dressing rooms with BIOLOGICAL Males. They push all kinds of mental illness as choice. They claim allowing people to be homeless is better than making them get treatment. Yes belter they die than be forced in treatment. So yes they look like Crazies simply because they are.

  17. Victoria Woodhull, the first woman to run for president in 1872, with Frederick Douglass as her running-mate, said this:

    … Wives deliberately permit themselves to become pregnant of children and then, to prevent becoming mothers, as deliberately murder them while yet in their wombs. Can there be a more demoralized condition than this?… We are aware that many women attempt to excuse themselves for procuring abortions, upon the ground that it is not murder. But the fact of resort to so weak an argument only shows the more palpably that they fully realize the enormity of the crime .

  21. I’ve seen it described that the ones displaying as Handmade have fetishes of being such for certain demographic groups that they think are “oppressed” the ones that yell something resembling ” snack bar” just prior to bloodshed
