‘All the Democracy That Money Can Buy’: "If there was one decision I would overrule, it would be Citizens United. I think the notion that we have all the democracy that money can buy strays so far from what our democracy is supposed to be.”

I hate this #sexist commercial where beautiful women are serving a man on literal silver platters. @SKETCHERSUSA needs to get w/the times & should be ashamed of themselves‼️ It’s pervasive images like this that keep a sexist culture alive. #shoes #sellingsex #misogyny #servitude
