HuffPost editor tweets New Year’s resolution: ‘Kill all men’

On Friday, HuffPost editor Emily McCombs issued a tweet containing her New Year’s resolutions.  One of those resolutions simply read: “Band together to kill all men.”

“New Year’s resolutions: 1. Cultivate female friendships 2. Band together to kill all men,” she tweeted.

The tweet was deleted, but not before it was captured for posterity:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

The deleted tweet was also archived and can be seen here.

According to the Daily Caller (edited for language):

McCombs, who serves as the “Editorial Director of Parents” for HuffPo, previously wrote an article in November titled, “I Don’t Know If I Can Raise A Good Man.”

In the post, she talks about her own son, saying, “(o)f course, we all want to raise feminist sons. I wrote an article a few months ago detailing the ways I try to do just that. But my efforts are starting to seem like grains of sand against a steady wave-crash of misogyny and rape culture.”

She continues, “In my previous article, I wrote, ‘In my sweat-soaked, sit-straight-up-in-bed feminist nightmares, I can imagine a future in which my own spawn makes some woman feel as voiceless as the boys in my high school once did, a world in which he blithely argues against the existence of male privilege and sh*t-talks the latest all-female remake on Twitter.’ Lately, I can imagine it even more clearly.”

The Daily Caller said it’s not the first anti-male tweet she’s issued:

I’d settle for a day without some bloodthirsty, hate-filled liberal calling for people to be killed.

In February 2011, I first wrote that liberalism, at its core, is an ideology of rage and hate.  Sadly, leftists like McCombs prove that assertion correct on just about any given day.

Exit questions: 1) Does the HuffPost endorse this display of hate, and 2) Why hasn’t Twitter slapped McCombs for this clear breach of its policies?  Could it be because she’s a liberal and has a blue check-mark by her name?
