Former ESPN host and current Atlantic writer Jemele Hill, slammed white women who she says torpedoed the candidacy of Beto O’Rourke in last night’s Texas Senate race.

Radical feminist Rebecca Solnit also slammed white women for trading their gender fidelity for political power. And the leftist activist organization called UltraViolet insisted that white women are just another aspect of white supremacy that needs to be cleansed from our society.

Many other left-wingers took to Twitter to attack white women, as well:
