I’m also glad she’s not running because I don’t want to relive 2016. Still, I also find it particularly annoying that the most qualified candidate felt she couldn’t run again because, reasons (“shrill” “unlikeable” “baggage”...) yet the old white guy felt perfectly entitled to run again and split the party again.  

Hey Lauren, I just want to chime in along with everyone else and let you know this is a really shitty post. Like, colossally shitty. I don’t even have any snark for you. Clinton won the popular vote, she was profoundly qualified, and she got shat on for being a woman who knows how to get shit done in a world dominated…

I was inspired by her too. I would vote for her again if I could (but I wouldn’t wish another brutal election cycle on her). I think she would have made an incredible President. I teared up when I voted for her because I was so moved. The snark in this article is really rude and unnecessary. There’s a lot of people…

Yeah, someone who wins a party nomination and then gaines over three million more votes than someone yet loses due to dozens of fluky reasons is hardly someone you can call “uninspiring” but you can never kick someone when they’re down enough  

I was pretty inspired by her campaign too. But I’m glad she’s sitting this out because I wouldn’t wish all the crap she got (from both the far right and the far left) on my worst enemy.

I was inspired by her campaign as were many she won the goddamn popular vote. She shouldn't run again because it will just be a repeat and she has sense. No need to shit on her work. 

So at what point will white people look at these various slip-ups and gaffes and excuses about he “misspoke” and “what he really meant was” and all the other stuff surrounding Bernie and say “hey, maybe he has an issue speaking about race”.

What is it with old “democratic socialist” White guys on both sides of the pond right now who proclaim having been “anti-racist” all their lives but have massive racial/antisemitic blindspots they haven’t addressed ever...

We need this. This strain of shit going through through a vein of the party now needs to be destroyed. You want to talk about real “economic anxiety?” Then start speaking to those it affects the absolute most. Anyone who uses the term “identity politics” as a slur ain’t a Democrat and they sure as hell ain’t a…

But isn’t this is so so so much better?

It’s always good to be reminded that we’re lucky to be able to see Williams play, even if you’re not a big tennis fan.

Just sheer brilliance. This has been the best tennis she’s played all year.

Everyone is a threat to the police and the goverment. Everyone.

Because using flash-bangs or teargas to disable him would not have fulfilled their need for vengeance after five of their fellow officers were gunned down.

“Civilian criminals?” Were they not merely exercising their Second Amendment right to protect themselves from tyranny?

Yes, those pesky rights - like the right to a jury trial only apply in crimes that aren’t scary or warlike. It says so in the constitution!

Can anyone explain why they used a bomb to kill him? Was he hiding off in a corner where they couldn’t reach him? Everything I’ve read doesn’t list details. They couldn’t use sleeping gas? Tear gas?

This sounds like a humdinger of a legal issue if someone’s brave enough to bring it up, especially when we are told drone strikes are illegal in the US.

I want to star like six different points in this post.
