It’s very hard to both acknowledge that Clinton’s popularity is mired by sexist attitudes about women in public life, and that there are also other reasons why folks distrust her or dislike her. If you bring up one of these points, people tend to hit you over the head with the other fact, as if they can’t both be…

Bill Clinton bombed Iraq too, and Hillary voted to bomb it some more.

But they didn’t. They voted for Nader, as remains their right.

I fail to see why.

Nobody in the general election wants to help another candidate win at their own expense.

Yes, white women are currently capitalizing on running around getting things done to their bodies or hair that are stereotypically associated with Black women and called ugly or “ghetto” on Black women but praised on white women. Yes, that is happening. No, it’s never cool.

Wait I remember you. Aren’t you the girl who got super upset about being called Becky? Lmao.

So we are in agreement. I am confused now.

I mean it was a song about shitting on the heroine chic looks of models and stars of the time (read white) and his love of big asses.

Yeah, but the song is speaking specifically about black women. The LA face part shouldn’t be “read: white” because he isn’t talking about white people in the song. It means (at least in my understanding at the time the song dropped) is LA chicks care more about their appearance and Oakland chicks have phat booties. I…

Where?

It is. You know Ryan introduced her to Sir Mix one time and they danced around their mansion. And she wants people to know she knows this song, guys.

Let me refresh everyone’s memory - The damn song was about how white women and America’s beauty standards look down on black women’s beauty. Or did you for the that “Oh my God Becky, look at her butt” why does everyone forget this? Look up the lyrics in its entirety and the you’ll get it.

Do even know the whole song was about mocking white racism towards black women’s bodies?

Ah yes, us feminist, women Bernie supporters just don’t exist! Bernie is more pro-choice than Hillary even is. I’m tired of this false argument.

People are fucking weird. This was HILARIOUS. And all the more so by how many complete cringe worthy moments there were, of all these media people being entirely unable to laugh at them selves. Did you guys see Blitzer’s face?? If eyes could kill, Larry would be dead. Dead, I tell ya.

Counterpoint: I doubt your grandparents were as despicable as Reagan

I’ve read the script and saw the live reading. It in no way makes fun of Reagan or dementia, but does posit that his vile administration took advantage of him when he was vulnerable to do the Iran contra shit. Reagan is portrayed in a pretty dignified manner. I hope Davis read it before commenting, but it sounds like…

Not as mean spirited as allowing Reagan to continue as president while suffering from dementia.

Ronald Reagan’s entire presidential run was basically Weekend at Bernie’s. I say have at it.
