I am decidedly not a Hillary fan, but this is a very uncharitable take on what she has said here.

Also, while there’s support for parents of trans kids now, there really wasn’t until recently. It is significantly more gutsy to support your child when there’s no external support for either of you, no roadmap or published guidelines, no one to talk to about it, etc.
Also, on the “gutsy” front, I am going to assume this writer is not a parent. I don’t have the details from the anecdote in question, but if one of Hillary’s friends is talking about her young child, I’m going to take “a few years ago” to mean in the 1990s when HC herself had a young child. At that time (or even…
So, she reveals that she supports trans people and that she’s learning and trying to better herself on a topic and human condition that she wasn’t familiar with for most of her life. And the takeaway here is that that’s “not pretty”? The purity tests are unreal.
I am genuinely curious to know what exactly makes this statement transphobic:
What on earth. This woman can’t do anything right. I’m sorry her honesty is not pretty enough for you. (pretty enough!!!!! How did you end this piece saying that!)
This seems more an issue with the interviewer than Hillary. I do like that Chelsea wasn’t going to play the interviewers game and was direct.
I don’t see what the issue is here. This is a new subject for many people, something they’ve never been exposed to before or thought much about. And frankly, it is an uncomfortable topic for many, especially older folks. I say it’s a good thing for those who are confused or don’t feel fully confident in their ideas…
It’s as though that person just imagines her on the couch eating buckets of ice cream worrying about her life while mentally destroying her ex in perpetuity. “Thank god I’m here to tell her what to do!”, they think.
How is she insulting her constituents? She is saying her district is firmly Democrat - as is she. Is she also insulting herself. This reporting is gross.
You shut up with your logic and facts! We have powerful women to go after!
Pelosi is not at the center of anything, she is on the right side of the party.
Right, it’s easy to forget how many moderate Democrats are out there when reading Jezebel or similar sites. There is a reason why Biden is consistently polling so high. We also are stuck (mostly) in a two party system, so the furthest left candidate typically still needs to run as a Democrat instead of as a Democratic…
Actually, if you look at the most recent analyses, the democratic base is majority moderate. It was moderates who won the swing districts and red districts that gave us the “blue wave”. The Justice Dem candidates and Bernie endorsements lost more often than they won. Pelosi is anticipating Trump and GOP strategy of…
As another commetor pointed out, she is correct in noting that the far left congresspeople total abut 5 people. It’s important to remember that our congress is made up of members who reflect the positions of their constituents—wherever on the spectrum that may be. Pelosi is absolutely correct in stating that the…
Some guys, when they reach middle age, tend to blame their failed marriage on ‘feminism’ ruining their wives rather than... you know... Jack Daniels.
You know, you could have saved time by just saying, “I didn’t read this shit but I’m big mad at women.”
Are you ok after that ridiculous reach?
Perfect time for me to debut my even worsely named series, SMILK.
This is one of the reasons why I am divorced. I had all of this on top of a small business and I couldn’t “manage/train”* a husband. If I was going to do it all, then why are you here. I just couldn’t and I was becoming bitter and mean.
