The artist drew them in rags. The implication is that women worried about their right to vote were neglecting their "duties" at home, that they were incapable of handling both.

I understand the subtext, thank you.

Apparently not, since you said the comic had a point, instead of clearly just being a strawman argument bashing suffragettes.

That's kinda odd I was genuinely going to defend the person you're talking to but I noticed their double whammy Apu/Crusader profile pic and saw they made a community for family values, generational wealth, and doomsday prepping. I don't even know what to think of them it's wild
