"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

Yeah, when you put it like that it is sort of sad, but still it's thanks to her and many other women (and probably some men too) that women are allowed to vote today. I'm sure she died happy, at least.

The Floozie in the Jacuzzi would be most appropriate.
