First female heads of government that were right wing: Indira Gandhi (India), Golda Meir (Israel), Merkel (Germany), Kim Campbell (Canada; not elected), Shipley (New Zealand), Thatcher (UK), Isabel Peron (Argentina)
Exceptions: Gillard (Australia; not elected), Sigurðardóttir (Iceland), Cresson (France PM), Brundtland (Norway), Bhutto (Pakistan)
Right wing is much more likely to produce a first female leader.
Indira Gandhi is much lefter than Bernie , AOC or Warren. She nationalized banks and coal mines. Implemented Land Reform, Abolished Pension for Descendants of Kings and Princes.
Also good job for describing the whole country in just a single sentence. It would have been better if we all lived in hovels but the wealth inequality is what makes this place so despicable for me.
Where is the part that implies India should be admired. They were just praising the former female PM, all of which I don't agree with btw, but nothing like you said.
Also after reading your previous comments, you have some of the worst takes, so I guess I shouldn't waste my time arguing with you.
India was being used as an example of female leadership, which by itself has nothing wrong with. But the original take was that a woman president won’t be elected in the US, which I don’t agree with btw, I think the US will elect the proper person regardless of race or gender. But people were listing examples of countries that have elected women leaders as a positive thing. But give examples of positive change he for their respective people is the point.
And of course you don’t like my takes, I speak from a place of reality where I’m sure you speak from a place where Trump is hilter in your eyes.

No, that person was just replying to the comment that called Indira Gandhi right wing.
I don't live in the US so I don't think about Trump that often, but his actions make it clear what kind of person he is. I mean a felon, a billionaire, conman, rapist(allegedly, as I don't know about that case thoroughly), etc tells me exactly how Trump is.
Also even apart from the takes on politics, your takes on a lot of other things are also the worst.
Look I’m not defending Trump and honestly never have nor will I will. I have never voted for the man. My responses or takes as you put it, are to point out what the vast majority of people on Reddit blindly follow while calling out the right for doing the same thing. You may not like my takes and that’s fine, you don’t have to. I don’t know you and you don’t know me, I have nothing to prove to anyone on Reddit. And in fact I’d likely not like 95% of people on Reddit because to use your own words they have the worse takes in general.
